STATISTICAL ESTIMATION OF FACTORS AFFECTING THE STUDENTS '' ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE
The article is devoted to the importance of statistical training of graduates of universities. One of the problems of teaching statistics is the students' lack of understanding of the significance of statistical analysis in practical activities. To solve this problem, it is proposed to strengthen the applied nature of the study of statistics, which makes it possible not only to strengthen the development of discipline, but also to motivate students to study it. Factors influencing students' academic performance have been studied to improve the teaching methodology. For this purpose, a statistical study was carried out, during which students of economic profiles of training were interviewed. The indicators of tightness of the connection between the factors influencing the academic performance and the average score of the session are calculated. The influence of pre-university training on the academic progress of university students is determined using regression equations and correlation coefficients.
