This article explores the ability of large language models to successfully complete the general academic prerequisites test, which is part of the national comparative examinations conducted by SCIO and used as an entrance exam for Czech universities. For the experiment, a 2024 test was adapted for processing by reformatting questions, mathematical expressions, and graphical information. Several language models were tested, including GPT-3.5, GPT-4, Gemini, Claude 3.5, LLaMA 3.1, and Mistral Large 2. The results show that all models outperformed the median student score, with stronger performance in the verbal section compared to the analytical section. Additionally, the models demonstrated the ability to clearly explain their reasoning processes, offering potential support for students preparing for these exams.
