Management should check:- credits systems, especially in the first two years,- content of new subjects, their continuity with other subject,- overlapping of contents of different subjects,-quality of study materials,-organization of exams, especially during the last year of study.

Critical objectives to questionnaires:-non-objective evaluation because on dependency on such variable as sympathy, degree of acceptability, size of group and the way of interpretation,-influence of facts as the gender of respondent, looks of rooms,-concentration only on the negative features of teacher's work, respondents ignorance.
