The first-fourth year students were examined (n=123, the age of 17-22 years). The Grade Point Average and the knowledge quality of the research students were considered. It was established that psychological content parameters of social expectations of future physical education teachers have a considerable positive two-way correlation with the Grade Point Average of study progress (р<0.01), with the knowledge quality in methodology training (р<0.01), the knowledge quality in practical and professional training (р<0.05). There is no considerable correlation between psychological content parameters of social expectations and the knowledge quality of general education training of the research students (р>0.05). The results of the psychological content parameters of social expectations of the future profession allow making corrections to organizing the academic process of future physical education teachers at the stage of developing educational and professional programs and work plans.
