The Minister of Education of the Russian Federation spoke out against the "voluntary" exam. The Minister of Education of the Russian Federation spoke out against the "voluntary" exam Ege compulsory subjects list

Despite the talk and rumors about the imminent abolition of the unified state exam, this will not happen. According to the Minister of Education Olga Vasilyeva, written answers are well proven in practice, they give time for reflection, exclude the excitement that is inevitable with an oral answer. The so-called speaking is used only when passing the exam in English language in 2019, and then optional. But innovations happen regularly. 2019 will not be an exception: the changes in the exam are known, although not completely.

What are the compulsory subjects included in the exam 2019

The most important question - how many subjects to take for the exam in 2019 - is of most concern to schoolchildren and parents. He has the answer now. The approved list of 14 disciplines in which knowledge can be tested has not changed. But the formula for passing the final exams has changed.

The new 4+2 formula includes 4 required subjects and 2 electives. That is, in 2019, the USE in history and any of the four subjects will be added to the USE indispensable for all in the Russian language and mathematics in 2019. Discussions continue, there is no consensus. The most likely candidates are the following disciplines.

Social science. This subject is most often chosen as an additional exam, so the USE in social studies in 2019 looks logical.
Geography. Without basic knowledge in this subject, according to experts, it is impossible to achieve career heights, to take an individual a worthy place in society.
Physics. Representatives of technical universities advocate for it, but the subject is too complicated for many schoolchildren, so it is not great to get into the number of compulsory disciplines.
Foreign language. English is the language of international communication, but many children learn French or Chinese, which calls into question this choice.

Exam procedure

The question of how they will pass the exam in 2019 is still worrying schoolchildren and their parents. Meanwhile, there are no changes regarding the procedure for conducting attestation. The time remains the same: 235 minutes for literature, mathematics, physics, 210 minutes for Russian, history, social studies, 180 minutes for a foreign language, biology, chemistry.

Exams are scheduled to start at 10 am local time. The scores on the exam in 2019 are still important. For the certificate, the minimum score is important; for admission, you need to familiarize yourself with the passing score for a particular institution. Students who passed mathematics with less than 27 points and Russian with less than 36 points, can't apply to university.

Retake is allowed in case of failure to appear for an exam for a good reason (for example, illness), and a certificate must be submitted. There is a reserve date for reassessment during the session, with each student having two attempts. The number of essay topics for the USE in Literature in 2019 has been increased from three to five, with the minimum length increased to 250 words.

How to prepare for certification

Almost all subjects, with the exception of literature and foreign language are rented according to the standard plan. Tasks are of three types. A - choice of one option from 4 alternatives. B - short answer (number or word). C - writing a detailed answer. Standard tickets are widely displayed on the Internet, puzzles for the past year are open for free access.

The psychological preparation of the student is important. It is not uncommon for children to become overly nervous, as a result of which prepared students receive grades lower than they deserve. To avoid this, when passing the exam, parents should instill self-confidence in their son or daughter. During the academic year, you must:

Practice in solving variants of standard tasks in selected subjects.
In case of difficulties, organize additional classes with teachers.
If the child is too emotional, it should be shown to a psychologist.
Decide in advance on the elective exams that need to be given increased attention.
Get acquainted with the changes in the USE in 2019 on the official website of the Ministry of Education.

Break a leg!

Passing the exam after grade 11 high school- a great chance to show off knowledge even to a not too diligent student. There is nothing wrong with passing the exam in 2019, it is important for the child and his parents to know the basic rules that we talked about and regularly prepare in practice. It is impossible to make up for gaps in knowledge in a month or even six months. But if from the beginning of the 10th grade you decide on the subjects and systematically devote several hours a week to classes in the chosen disciplines, there should be no problems. No fluff or feathers to all schoolchildren!

Every year, the topic of current changes in the USE becomes one of the most discussed among schoolchildren. And this is not surprising, because this exam is the most important and difficult for every graduate, and it is necessary to prepare for it in advance.

The interest in the test is fueled by the fact that the government annually makes changes either to the procedure for conducting the exam, or to its program.

The coming year 2019 will not be an exception in this regard: the exam also expects a number of innovations, some of which will be quite significant. In order to be well prepared for the future test, it is important for graduates and their parents to learn about what initiatives Myobrnauki will bring to life this year.

As soon as the USE was introduced into the education system, it immediately caused a lot of controversy and debate. Thus, the proponents of the exam pointed out that it allows the most objective assessment of students' knowledge, as well as to determine at what level the teaching of certain subjects in schools is. In addition, the USE helps gifted students to prove themselves and get the opportunity to enter a good university.

Opponents of the USE, in turn, emphasize that the exam is a bit "raw" and contains a lot of flaws. Dissatisfaction is also caused by the fact that schoolchildren have to work hard to prepare for the exam, and this increases the burden on young people. Such stress negatively affects the state of health, both physical and psychological.

Parents also indicate that the level of school preparation does not correspond to the complexity of the tasks that the USE provides. So, in order to fully prepare for the exam, you have to hire tutors and study extra for a long time, which not everyone can afford.

It is worth noting that many people perceive this test negatively because of its “pro-Western” format. Older people believe that Soviet-style exams are the best option, and test tasks alien to us and therefore ineffective.

Given this, rumors that the USE may be canceled regularly appear in various media and excite the minds of schoolchildren. However, the Ministry of Education and Science quite categorically states that the exam will remain in the education system and that the question of its elimination is not being raised.

Of course, the department acknowledges that the test contains some shortcomings and needs to be improved. Officials are ready to improve the exam and make it more objective and of high quality.

Thus, the abolition of the USE in the near future should not be expected, but changes can and should be made.

Required subjects

Although it is still too early to talk about any final decisions regarding the final tests, which should take place in 2018-2019 academic year, nevertheless, employees of the Ministry of Education and Science are ready to slightly lift the veil of secrecy. We managed to find out that in 2019 new compulsory subjects will definitely appear in the Unified State Examination.

The total number of compulsory subjects has not yet been determined. A team of specialists is working on this, weighing all the pros and cons of introducing new tests in various subjects.

History will definitely be added to the compulsory subjects (basic or specialized mathematics and Russian) in 2019. The Ministry of Education and Science focuses on the fact that every citizen should know the history of their country and be able to distinguish historical facts from profanities and fakes, which in last years began to appear more and more often against the backdrop of confrontation between countries in the information field.

As a subject of choice, graduates will be able to choose:

social science;
physics;
chemistry;
informatics;
foreign language;
geography;
biology;
literature.

The list of foreign languages available for delivery will include: English, German, French, Spanish and Chinese.

As before, tests for future applicants will begin at the beginning of winter with the writing of the December essay, which has already become a traditional start of the graduation campaign.

Thus, already today, studying in the 10th grade, future graduates must decide in which direction they would like to continue their education and decide how many and what subjects they need to send to the exam in 2019.

Oral delivery of subjects instead of tests

Recently it became known that the Ministry of Education and Science plans to reduce the test part of the exam and increase the oral part. This decision was dictated by several factors at once, one of which is the increase in cases of passing the exam "at random": many students do not prepare for the exam, hoping to guess the correct answer in the tests.

In addition, some graduates try to simply peep the right options from a neighbor or cheat with the help of modern gadgets.

The decision of the ministry was also influenced by the facts of the sale of answers to examination tasks by dishonest workers in the field of education. Well, the last straw was that many teachers are trying to cheat and instead of in-depth study of the subject, they simply coach students on tests that graduates passed last year.

Oral responses will help to more accurately assess students' knowledge and reduce the likelihood of cheating, officials said. Part of the tests should be replaced by "speaking" in the Russian language exam.

In this case, two options for passing the oral part are considered at once: in front of the computer and in front of the examination committee. Moreover, "speaking" can be used as admission to the exam.

Self-printing exam forms

Another innovation should be the refusal to deliver forms with tasks. Exam sheets are now delivered to every educational institution, where they are unpacked by teachers immediately before the exam.

But, despite all attempts to eliminate the likelihood of speculation, the teaching staff has the opportunity to discreetly print out an envelope with assignments in advance.

To eliminate the risk of selling examination papers, the Ministry of Education and Science intends to equip educational institutions special equipment that will allow you to print examination sheets in a matter of minutes.

The tasks themselves will be available for printing just before the start of the test, and the date and time of the exam will already be indicated on the sheets, and the students will only have to write their name on the sheets.

Officials also suggest that this innovation will help reduce the cost of transporting tasks.

Innovations and changes in the USE 2019

If you believe the promises of Vasilyeva, then there will be no cardinal changes in the 2018-2019 season. The innovations introduced in 2017 and 2018 have proved to be excellent, and therefore will be preserved in the new exam tickets.

The following important changes are expected:

Mandatory oral part in the Unified State Exam in the Russian language (the exam will be divided into two days).
Development of new KIM in literature, focused on the disclosure of the creative potential of the examinee.
Adding the so-called “integrated problems” to the tickets for mathematics, for the solution of which students will need to accumulate knowledge from different areas of algebra and geometry.
The Informatics exam will be held only with the use of a PC (without the "paper" part).
Tightening the rules aimed at ensuring the reliability of the result.

Perhaps for schoolchildren who did not take a responsible enough approach to the study of individual subjects and realized their lack of knowledge only after going to grade 11, the information about how many subjects they have to take for the exam in 2019 will be frightening. But, the purpose of such innovations is to provide competitive universities of the country with students with the necessary amount of knowledge.

For more information about the innovations that are expected in the Unified State Exam, see the interview with Olga Vasilyeva.

Minimum and passing scores

Fulfilling USE assignments, the graduate gains test scores, which are then converted into final results on a certain scale. Whether there will be changes in the 2019 table is not yet known. But, with a high degree of probability, it can be argued that the system of the minimum and passing score will remain.

Minimum score- a necessary condition for obtaining a document on education. It is not difficult to score a minimum score in subjects. To do this, it is enough to master the theory and practice at a basic level.
Passing score- a necessary condition for entry into the university chosen by the graduate. Information about passing scores for a particular specialty at the university of interest should be sought on the official website of the educational institution.

Retake

One of the good news is the fact that in 2019 it will be possible to retake not only compulsory subjects, but also any USE exam. But, only one!

There will be no retakes for graduates of previous years who received an unsatisfactory result, as well as for those who “failed” more than 1 subject or were convicted of violating discipline.

If the graduate could not appear on the day of the test for a good reason (documented), then he will receive 2 more attempts.

on the reserve day of the session;
during the fall session.

Since the USE certificate remains valid for 4 years, the autumn retake opens up the prospect of entering a university next year, or even in 2019-2020, to faculties with a shortage of students.

Training

Reading our article today, you have oiled up in time about preparing for the final tests that await you in the 11th grade.

Experienced teachers, who have years of effective preparation of graduates for the Unified State Exam, recommend going to the intended goal according to the following algorithm:

Determine which faculty you would like to enter.
Find out what compulsory subjects (USE certificates) the university requires from applicants in 2019.
Get acquainted with what changes are expected in 2019 in the main subjects of the Unified State Examination (the official website of the FIPI will help with this).
Step by step repeat all the topics school course in subjects, practicing the solution of trial tickets 2018 and 2019.
Attend exam preparation courses or contact a tutor.

Unfortunately, practice shows that just a good knowledge of the subject is not enough for the successful passing of the exam. It takes practice to solve tasks of a certain type. Gaining experience in solving USE tickets while preparing for exams, students form a strategy for completing assignments and gain self-confidence, which is an indispensable assistant in achieving success.

A question that worries not only schoolchildren, but also their parents - will the Unified State Examination be canceled in 2019 and what changes should we expect next year? These unrest are far from groundless - although the Ministry of Education denies the possibility of canceling the unified state exam, parliamentarians are considering a corresponding bill.

USE: what Putin said and the latest news

The State Duma is considering a bill concerning the rights of teachers, or rather, the unified state exam. If the amendments are approved and the document is adopted, then from next year teachers will receive additional payments for their work. So far, schools have no such obligations, since attestation is included in official duties teachers, and therefore additional payments should not be demanded. On the other hand, the teacher spends at the workplace at school almost the whole of June, in connection with the USE, and at the same time bears not only physical activity but also moral. And if in some regions educational institutions are seeking funds for additional payment, then in other regions there is simply no money.

According to the Committee on Education and Science, in forty subjects (out of 83) of Russia, payment is made. Moreover, the deputies note that in those regions where the surcharge is still there, it is only a couple of hundred rubles per hour for teachers and technical staff on the days of the Unified State Examination, but during the state final certification, there is no surcharge at all, since this is considered volunteer work. According to the news for today, this initiative will equalize both certifications and the work of teachers will become paid. While the document is under consideration, it is not known what Putin, who in 2007 signed the law on holding the Unified State Exam throughout the country, said.

Traditionally, the exam starts at the end of May. These include several exams - mandatory and optional. This year, high school graduates took geography, computer science, literature and physics. The maximum score that can be obtained is 100 points.

For the first time such a knowledge assessment system was introduced in 2001. Then, as an experiment, the exam was held in only 5 regions:

Samara Region;
Rostov region;
The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia);
Chuvashia;
Mari El Republic.

Important! In the first USE testing about 33 thousand schoolchildren took part.

United next year state exams have already been held in sixteen regions, including the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Mandatory academic disciplines	Selective (not mandatory) disciplines
Russian language
Maths, a basic level of	Geography

	Literature
	Social science
	Physics
	Chemistry
	Informatics
	Information and Communication Technology
	Foreign languages
	Native language and literature from among the languages of the peoples of the Russian Federation

Based on the results of the exam, a student can enter a university. At the same time, universities and institutes can assign additional points to an applicant for personal achievements - for winning an international or all-Russian Olympiad, the status of a prize winner in sports competitions or volunteering.

Important! In 2020, it is planned to introduce history into the number of compulsory subjects, and by 2022 - foreign languages.

However, despite almost twenty years of experience in conducting the exam, sometimes testing is in jeopardy. For example, this year in eight districts of Yakutia, there was a threat of postponing the exam in mathematics due to flooding - the power supply was disrupted and there was no access to the Internet.

Will the USE be canceled and what will be the changes?

As the latest news reports, the law on the rights of teachers during the Unified State Examination and the State Academic Examination is not the only one that is being considered in the State Duma. Another initiative even proposes to abolish these certifications due to their inefficiency. The authors believe that the tests teach children to “check the boxes”, and do not reflect their real knowledge. And while parents are wondering: “Will the USE be canceled in 2019?”, regional schools believe that this is not the best option.

“For the province, this is the most honest admission, because children take the exam, then they calmly wait for the results and act on the basis of<ЕГЭ>not even in one university and not in one specialty,” says Klavdia Nikulina, teacher of literature and Russian at school No. 20 in Shadrinsk.

The Ministry of Education also denies the possibility of abandoning the Unified State Examination - too much money has been invested in the development and implementation. But changes are quite likely, given that they already occur almost every year.

The interest in the test is fueled by the fact that the government annually makes changes either to the procedure for conducting the exam, or to its program.

Can the exam be cancelled?

Of course, the department acknowledges that the test contains some shortcomings and needs to be improved. Officials are ready to improve the exam and make it more objective and of high quality.

Thus, the abolition of the USE in the near future should not be expected, but changes can and should be made.

How many and what subjects to take in 2019

The main issue that worries every graduate is the number of subjects that the USE will include. From time to time, various rumors appear about the addition of new disciplines to the exam program, which is why students are constantly in a "suspended" state, not knowing what to prepare for.

Indeed, the Ministry of Education and Science is preparing several innovations, one of which will be the introduction of another foreign language into the number of elective subjects. So, about 3 thousand schoolchildren will take tests in the framework of a pilot project Chinese. Since the delivery of this subject will take place in a trial mode, it is quite possible that a softer grading system will be applied to it.

In addition, for several years now the Ministry of Education and Science has been talking about the need to introduce additional compulsory subjects. So, the department has repeatedly stated that the number of disciplines will be increased to 4: in addition to the Russian language and mathematics, students will have to take history and a foreign language.

But if this happens, then only by 2020, because the ministry wants to change the USE smoothly so as not to injure future graduates and give them time to adapt to new conditions.

Most likely, there will be three compulsory subjects: history will be added to the two current disciplines. It is quite easy to explain such a choice, because if children know the past of their country well, then they will be able to grow up as patriots and conscientious citizens. It is worth noting that schoolchildren will take history not in the form of tests, but in a more familiar format: the exam will be held on tickets.

As for a foreign language, it may become mandatory by 2020. This time, according to representatives of the Ministry of Education and Science, should be enough for schoolchildren and teachers to improve their preparation for the exam and pass the exam well. At the same time, it is possible that the introduction of a new discipline will be slightly postponed if it turns out that this will create too many difficulties.

Oral delivery of subjects instead of tests

In addition, some graduates try to simply peep the right options from a neighbor or cheat with the help of modern gadgets.

Self-printing exam forms

Another innovation should be the refusal to deliver forms with tasks. Now the examination papers are delivered to each educational institution, where they are unpacked by teachers immediately before the exam.

But, despite all attempts to eliminate the likelihood of speculation, the teaching staff has the opportunity to discreetly print out an envelope with assignments in advance.

To eliminate the risk of selling examination papers, the Ministry of Education and Science intends to equip educational institutions with special equipment that will allow them to print examination papers in a matter of minutes.

Officials also suggest that this innovation will help reduce the cost of transporting tasks.

More retake opportunities

It is good for future graduates to increase attempts to retake compulsory subjects if the main result was unsatisfactory. Now schoolchildren have only one opportunity to retake the exam, but the Ministry of Education and Science decided to give students more chances to successfully pass the test.

It is assumed that two additional attempts to prove high level their knowledge will be given to children after grade 9 and after grade 11.
