The data obtained through document review were analyzed by content analysis by three field experts in Turkish education using a question analysis table. As a result of the examination it is determined that Turkish skill questions; include examples of all text types in PISA reading skills; mostly the text types which have continuations are preferred amongst the text types in PISA reading skills; big part of the questions are in a comprehensible level in terms of cognitive processes that the reader interacts with the text; and Turkish skill questions have problems for ''1b, 1a, 2nd and 3rd'' levels in the proficiency levels of PISA reading skills. As the result of the study, it is emerged that there is a necessity to provide a balanced dispersion for PISA reading skills, its dimensions and levels.
