- Abstract
The different levels of initial academic literacy of university students have a direct relationship with performance in their first years of academic training. Based on this belief, these levels were investigated in students who entered the Bachelor's degrees in Geology and Paleontology in 2018 and 2019 at an Argentine university. An entrance and exit tests were designed, as well as a review rubric that responded to the objectives of the evaluation. The results obtained were analyzed quantitatively. The elaboration of an abstract from of an article of scientific dissemination in the entrance exams indicated difficulties in the levels of academic literacy. Comparatively with the output ones, advances were observed in the domain of textual comprehension and production; however, they only became significant when the students went through a year of university studies, accompanied in several activities from the Multiple Communication Area.
