The article highlights the problem of professional determination among senior pupils. During the
professional tests teenagers “try on” the professions in practice, they understand whether they like them
or not. The schoolchildren begin to realize the responsibility and the importance of making a decision
in this sphere. While taking the tests, all the students get a chance to evaluate their needs and demands
in a practical activity. According to the definite criteria in organizing such career tests a great variety of
methods were used for defying the level of students’ readiness for choosing a job. The authors interpret
the results after comparing the dynamic changes in different tests with the groups of the tested pupils
and those who were not tested. The results of this research prove that the pupils who took part in career
tests were prepared for career prospects better than those who were not tested.
