Abstract	The deficiencies of the effectiveness of Hungarian general education revealed in the PISA survey is also apparent in the higher education sector. The "Introduction to Informatics" subject has one of the lowest exam results among the students of the College of Nyíregyháza majoring in the courses for Computer Program Designing and Teaching Computer Science. By analysing the results of supplementary surveys I tried to find answers to the following questions: What are the relations between the exam results of the students and the secondary final examinations that should measure their previous knowledge? Can the weak results be explained by the thinking ability or rather the lack of special mathematics skills? What are the students' attributions towards the exam results? The results of the investigations and surveys show that most of the students begin higher education with little fundamental knowledge. In order to improve the results of the exams the individual improvement of those students who perform poorly in the given fields is required. (Orig.)
