Question 1

How does the WiSo Insider preparation course help me?

Accepted Answer

The preparation course is specifically tailored to the WiSo entrance exam and guides you from the planning phase to the exam day. You'll learn time-efficient study strategies that save you a lot of time. All necessary materials for math and economics are included – theory that shows you how to quickly solve problems, as well as practice exercises to solidify your knowledge. If you get stuck, support is available every day.

Question 2

Can I prepare for the degree while doing my Matura?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Since preparing for the Matura is very time-consuming, we’ve designed the WiSo entrance exam preparation course so that you can achieve the best results with minimal time investment. We know that with good study strategies and a structured approach, it's possible to prepare alongside the Matura – and it can even be a welcome break from Matura content.

Question 3

I passed the Matura easily – do I even need to prepare?

Accepted Answer

That depends on whether you're willing to leave your future up to chance. There’s no minimum score – your result compared to other ambitious applicants decides if you get in or not. Since the Matura is standardized, most Austrian students pass it easily. Don’t assume you naturally have an edge – but you do need one to outperform the competition. Earn it with structured preparation – no stress, we’ll show you how!

Question 4

What should I pay attention to when preparing for the WiSo entrance exam?

Accepted Answer

Time management is key. You’re expected to have broad knowledge across multiple subjects. Don’t aim for perfection in just one area – it’s better to have solid knowledge across the board. If you’re starting months in advance, make sure to use effective study techniques to retain the content long-term. After all, what could be worse than forgetting it all on exam day?

Question 5

Why does WiSo Insider know the exam questions?

Accepted Answer

Nicolas Olsa, founder of WiSo Insider, has coached students for the entrance exam for the Business and Economics Bachelor at WU Vienna. Since this program has used the same exam format for years and Nicolas has successfully passed both the WISO and WiSo exams himself, he knows the recurring topics. Based on this experience, he developed a prep course to optimally help future applicants – even though the exact questions are only known to the officials at WU.

Question 7

Is the preparation course only suitable for entrance exams at WU Vienna?

Accepted Answer

The entrance exams at WU Vienna are considered very challenging, and since many economics bachelor programs have similar curricula, the entrance exams are often similar too. The WiSo prep course is ideal for preparing for exams at various universities. Former participants say that other entrance exams were particularly easy after this course. Just make sure the course topics match the requirements of your chosen exam. (All relevant topics for the WU Vienna exam are covered.)
