Editorial Comment I made it: "University Entrance Qualification Examination (establishes the equivalent of high-school graduation)". From http://www.japanlink.co.jp/ka/kyoi2.htm
Daiken is an abbreviation of "The University Entrance Qualification Examination" and is carried out every year by the Ministry of Education. High school graduation is necessary as a requirement to enter university or junior college, but even those who did not graduate from high school can, by passing this exam, be recognized as having an equal qualification as high school graduation. In recent years, students who are unable to adjust to and are unsatisfied with the high school educational environment drop out, and instances of trying to open up the road to higher learning by taking daiken are increasing."

CommentI think a third writing should be added: Éß±ä, where the second kanji Þ§ has been changed for a jouyou kanji, being a case of kakikae (like ÃêÁª was created from ÃêäÞ).
The writing system in my own computer offers this option when converting kana to kanji.
