Mnemonic
审 shěn "to examine" + 查 chá "to investigate": to examine and investigate, i.e. to scrutinize (qualifications, content, safety); also "to censor" (of media). The 查 is in 调查 (to survey) and 检查 (to inspect). Distinguish 审查 (to examine/censor) from 审批 (shěnpī, examine + approve). 资格审查 = qualification review.
