Abstract: A method for manufacturing a steel sheet of the invention includes a hot-rolling process in which a steel material is hot-rolled using a finishing mill so as to obtain a hot-rolled steel sheet; and a cooling process in which the hot-rolled steel sheet is cooled. The hot-rolling process includes a target steepness-setting process in which a target steepness of the edge wave shape is set based on first correlation data indicating a correlation between a steepness of the edge wave shape of the hot-rolled steel sheet and a temperature standard deviation Y; and a shape-controlling process in which operation parameters of the finishing mill are controlled so as to match the steepness of the edge wave shape with the target steepness.
