Abstract

This article raises the problem of poor mathematical preparation of school graduates, who are potential university students. It is proposed to consider the main result of students� mathematical preparation at the profi le level at school from the standpoint of readiness to continue mathematical education further. The concept of �readiness of school graduate to continue mathematics education� is formulated. The article describes structural components of readiness as a result of education of graduates of secondary schools; these are cognitive, activity, motivational and evaluative, refl ective, evaluative, emotional and volitional components. The authors introduce a diagnostic program evaluating readiness of high school graduates to continue the mathematical education, which includes a variety of assessment tools and gauges. The authors present gathered during four years results of evaluation of the readiness level among fi rst-year students. The conclusions are made about the current readiness level by all selected components.
