Assessment as a dynamic process produces data, from which reasonable conclusions are derived by stakeholders for decision-making that expectedly impact on students' learning outcomes. Monitoring and statistical assessing the institutional performance is a key to understanding students´ achievements and failures. In an endeavour to widen the understanding connected to factors predicting academic achievement in tertiary education, the authors gathered and analysed data which focused on a descriptive survey of students applying for studies at the FML. Furthermore they have analysed the following data: -any relationship between the entrance examination results and results in specific subjects (mathematics, economics, English, physical education);-any relationship between results of the entrance examination and overall results. Exploratory statistics, Categorical data analysis, and Non-parametric statistical tests of the hypothesis regarding these relationships are described.
