A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes the steps of: determining a first design dimension of a gate electrode of a selection MISFET, a second design dimension of a sidewall insulating film, and initial setting conditions for ion implantation for a high-concentration semiconductor region; forming the gate electrode; measuring a first processed dimension of the gate electrode; implanting ions to form a low-concentration semiconductor region at each end of the gate electrode; forming the sidewall insulating film over a sidewall of the gate electrode; measuring a second processed dimension of the sidewall insulating film; and implanting ions to form a high-concentration semiconductor region. In the former implantation step, execution conditions to the initial setting conditions are reset according to a deviation of the first processed dimension from the first design dimension and a deviation of the second processed dimension from the second design dimension, and the step is executed.
