Abstract
The paper presents the method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) as a tool for compiling rating lists in tasks of ordering elements of assemblages. We describe the differences that result from applying a one-dimensional model and multi-dimensional model, where in the latter a so-called partial order is created for incomparable elements in the assemblage being ordered. The example used to illustrate the issues discussed is the analysis of teaching results in a student group.

Keywords: DEA method, ordering of assemblages, partial order, rating classes
