International Business Academy
Changes to the conditions of the admission procedure are reserved, especially with regard to the upcoming amendment to the Education Act.
The Business Academy field of study includes two specialisations: legal and economic.
63-41M/02 Business Academy (legal specialisation)
This specialisation reduces maths classes to a necessary minimum as required by the Framework Educational Programme for business academies but which is still sufficient for general knowledge. On the other hand, more emphasis is placed on the teaching of logic and general studies requirements, which are required for admission to law schools. The academy puts emphasis also on social sciences, which are more commonly taught at grammar schools. Unlike with general grammar schools, there is no need to teach natural sciences on such a scale; the students then may focus on practical skills, especially those of economic nature. The classes at our school of economics are participated by professors and associate professors from faculties of law. This includes also the mastering of two foreign languages.
The curriculum and the school educational programme can be downloaded here (available in the Czech language only).
63-41M/02 Business Academy (economic specialisation)
The Business Academy’s specialisation reduces the classes of social and natural sciences to a minimum level as required by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports, boosting especially economic disciplines.
The curriculum and the school educational programme can be downloaded here (available in the Czech language only).
Admission conditions for full-time education for the 1st round
An applicant can obtain a maximum of 166 points for all parts of the entrance examination: a maximum of 100 points for the state examination and a maximum of 66 points for the school part of the examination. The pupils attending the first round of the entrance examinations will be ranked according to the results of both parts of the examinations. Those students placed between the 1st position and the position corresponding to the ranking of the student placed last within the capacity announced for the 1st round of the admissions for a given subject of study will be admitted to studies. Also those students who have gained the same number of points as the last listed applicant will be admitted to studies as well. The secondary evaluation for determining the order, in case of agreement of the point evaluation, is the average benefit according to point 1 (criteria for recognition of the school entrance exam).
Entrance examination
The entrance examination is composed from the evaluation of the following parts:
1) result of the state entrance examination (a maximum of 100 points),
2) result of the school entrance examination (max. 66 points).
The joint (state) entrance examination consists of two didactic tests a) Czech language and literature (a sample here) and b) Mathematics (a sample here). Applicants receive a maximum of 50 points for the individual didactic tests. The highest possible number of points for the state examination is therefore 100 points if the applicant responds correctly to all the questions in both tests. The school entrance examination consists of the General Educational Prerequisites (a sample here). Depending on the test result, applicants can obtain up to 66 points. The information on the preparatory course for the school entrance examination can be found here.
Recognition of the school entrance examination
An applicant may be exempt from attending the entrance examination, receiving the maximum of 66 points without the need to pass the test of general studies requirements, if at least one of the following criteria is met. If there is a request for the recognition of the school part of the entrance examination according to the following points 4 to 8, enclosing a statutory declaration with attachments is a necessary condition (to download from here). The statutory declaration is an integral part of the application.
