Prognostic validity of competitive ion of entrants to higher education

Abstract

The article analyzes the statistical relationships between the components of competitive selection and the average performance of undergraduate and graduate students of a particular institution of higher education (HEI). The obtained values of correlation coefficients showed that the competitive score calculation models used in the test HEI have a sufficiently high level of prognostic validity (R > 0.5) for each educational level. At the same time, the article provides recommendations on possible areas for their improvement.
