Abstract

It is possible to generalize in partthe results of chemical education at high schools and colleges based on detailed analysis of the achievement test from chemistry, which is an optional part of final exam provided by the state. The article is focused on differences among students’ success rate in current thematic units (general chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry), in current types of test items (short-answer, multiple-choice, matching) and in acquired competencies (proving of knowledge, application of knowledge, work with information).

Also it is compared the students’ success rate in all of listed factors from the perspective of the so-called clusters, thus form the perspective of different focus of schools.
