ANALYSIS OF STUDENTS WHO FAILED MATHEMATICS COURSE

摘要

The paper presents the analysis of probability of failing the basic course in mathematics at the University of Economics, Prague. The evaluation of the course is continuous and students acquire points that sum up to overall evaluation not only during the exam period, but also from a mid-term test. From the analysis it turns out that students who score better in the mid-term test have higher chance to pass the course at first attempt, especially when they obtain more than 60% of points in their mid-term test.
