Sažetak
In this paper authors investigate relationship between scores in state Matura exams in mathematics, Croatian language, high school grades and success in some mathematical courses in the undergraduate study of “Information and Business Systems” at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Organization and Informatics. Mathematical courses are often courses with the lowest pass rates and the lowest average grade. Therefore, identification of required knowledge for successful passage of mathematical courses influences success rate for the whole study. Methods used in the paper are primary statistical and data mining methods: descriptive statistics, logistic regression and others. Computation is done in the R programming language.
