The analysis of modern mobile applications, which allows to assess the abilities of prospective students, which are necessary for successful training in the specialty. Because of the analysis, there were selected mobile applications that are expedient to use in intelligent decision support systems and to assess and develop spatial awareness. There was formed a set of criteria for evaluating factors reflecting the level of the prospective student’s spatial awareness. There was proposed an approach to the development of an intellectual system for evaluating the professional abilities of the students entering the educational establishments specializing in building.
