Unified State Examination changes this year. Changes in the Unified State Examination
Changes were made to the Unified State Examination in 2015 that apply to all subjects. They relate to the structure of CMMs:
- works on each of the disciplines are divided into two parts (the first contains basic questions, the second - complicated ones);
- tasks have continuous digital numbering without letters;
- short answers have changed their form, they need to be written as the number of the correct option, and not as a cross.
Changes in– significant.
The Unified State Examination in mathematics in 2015 will be held in two versions – specialized and basic. The first is intended for students who enter technical universities and must have good preparation in this subject. The second can be chosen by graduates who do not need mathematics for future study and work. The score for the basic exam cannot be taken into account when entering a university.
The profile CMM was created on the basis of last year’s. The following changes have been made to it:
- the second part includes a task of high complexity, which tests the ability to use acquired knowledge in practice and work with models;
- One task was excluded from the first part;
- Questions No. 16 and 17 of the second part changed their form and thematic content.
The basic CMM does not contain tasks of increased complexity. It takes the form of a test, all questions of which must be answered briefly.
Changes in– significant.
In order to differentiate between certifications based on the results of grades 9 and 11, the content of the Unified State Examination in the Russian language in 2015 was completely revised. The number of tasks in the test has decreased from 39 to 25 and they are presented in a different format. The maximum score decreased from 64 to 55. One vocabulary task was also added to the test.
Changes in– significant.
The number of Unified State Exam questions in biology in 2015 decreased from 50 to 40. At the same time, 9 tasks with short answers were excluded from testing (instead of 36 there were 25) and one extended task was added.
Changes in– significant.
The VEGE in foreign languages in 2015 will include an oral part, testing students’ speaking ability. Listening questions A1-A7 have been transformed into task 2 to determine correspondences from the listened text.
Changes in– significant.
The following adjustments were made to the VEGE in social studies in 2015:
- from all thematic blocks one question with a choice of answers from several options has been excluded;
- Questions No. 4,9,12,16 and 20 are presented as a multiple choice task;
- added new question No. 21 on knowledge of the basics of the Constitution;
- the number of tasks decreased from 37 to 36, the maximum score – from 62 to 60;
- The exam time has increased by 25 minutes.
Changes in– significant.
The number of questions in the Unified State Exam in physics in 2015 decreased from 35 to 32. Two calculation problems and one basic question were excluded from the test. As a result, the level of complexity of the work has decreased significantly.
Changes in– not significant.
The innovations of the Unified State Examination in Chemistry in 2015 are as follows:
- the number of general questions has been reduced (from 28 to 26);
- the maximum score decreased from 65 to 64;
- The task of determining the molecular formula will be assessed according to different criteria; the maximum score for solving it has increased from 3 to 4.
Changes in– not significant.
The USE questions on geography in 2015, which are included in the first part, will be arranged in a different order.
Changes in– not significant.
The structure of the Unified State Exam in computer science in 2015 was optimized:
- the number of questions was reduced from 32 to 27 by combining them by topic;
- the maximum score decreased from 40 to 35.
Changes in– not significant.
The USE in history in 2015 will have a different periodization. A question on the topic of the Great Patriotic War (No. 15) has been added to the test, and two basic tasks have been excluded.
Changes in– not significant.
The Unified State Examination in literature in 2015 will be conducted using CIMs of a new structure. No other changes were made.

At the beginning of the new academic year, the Federal Service for Supervision in Education and Science (Rosobrnadzor) presented changes in the procedure and content of the Unified State Exam, which await graduates in 2015. On September 8-11, a number of materials on this topic were published both on the Rosobrnadzor website and in the media (“Kommersant-Ogonyok”, “Rossiyskaya Gazeta”). The changes will affect the Unified State Exam in mathematics, literature, Russian and foreign languages, the parameters of observing the exam, and the possibility of retaking it. Most of the changes are the result of analysis and discussion of the practice of conducting the Unified State Exam among school and university teachers.

Slide description:
First innovation. The results of the Unified State Exam will be valid not for one and a half years, as before, but for four. That is, with a certificate of the 2015 model and all subsequent ones, it will be possible to enter universities four times.
4 slide
Slide description:
Second innovation. Categories of beneficiaries have been introduced who have the right to take preparatory courses once at state expense. Representatives of these categories have the right to preferential admission to universities to complete a bachelor's or specialist's program if they successfully pass the exams. This means that a beneficiary has a better chance of enrolling than an ordinary student who has earned an identical number of points in the Unified State Examination certificate.
5 slide
Slide description:
Third innovation. Benefits remain valid for: ***participants of All-Russian Olympiads who took prizes; ***composition of students of Russian national teams taking part in Olympiads in general education disciplines on an international scale. ___________________________________________ The above beneficiaries are enrolled in universities without competitions and without entrance exams. On preferential terms, an applicant is allowed to submit documents and enroll in only one specialty at one university.

Slide description:
Fifth innovation. In 2015, when entering universities, not only the results of the Unified State Exam will be taken into account, but also the average score of the certificate and other documented achievements of students, the so-called portfolio. In general, this innovation is assessed positively, as it allows a more objective assessment of the applicant’s activity, his creative potential, and ability for daily painstaking academic work.
8 slide
Slide description:
Sixth innovation. It has been officially announced that the compulsory subjects of the Unified State Exam in 2015 (mathematics and Russian language) will become two-level. To be able to enter a technical university, graduates will take mathematics at a specialized level, and the Russian language at a basic level. Humanitarian universities, on the contrary, will require the applicant to have a certificate of a specialized exam in Russian and a basic exam in mathematics. In 2015, the two-level exam will become the norm everywhere.
Slide 9
Slide description:
Seventh innovation. The changes will also affect the delivery and storage of materials. In 2015, KIMs will be stored in special warehouses under guard until the start of exams. Local education authorities will not have access to exam materials until exam day. ***It is expected that such measures will prevent information leakage.

Slide description:
Changes to the Unified State Examination in Mathematics in 2015 The Unified State Examination in Mathematics in 2015 is proposed to be carried out at two levels: basic and specialized. If an applicant intends to enter a university that requires an exam in mathematics, it is necessary to take the specialized Unified State Exam, the difficulty of which is the same as in 2014. Humanities majors can choose a basic level and test their knowledge of “mathematics for life.” The basic and advanced exams will be held on different days. If desired, a graduate can take both. The decision to “split” the exam is within the competence of the regions.

Slide description:
Changes in the USE in a foreign language in 2015 The USE in a foreign language will also undergo a “bifurcation”: in addition to the written part, there will be an oral part – “Speaking”. 80 points is the maximum you can get for the written part. 20 points are awarded for successfully passing the oral part. For now, they will take it voluntarily, but if you need high scores to get into your chosen university, you will have to do it. Moreover, a separate day is allocated for each part of the exam. The procedure for passing the Unified State Exam in a foreign language, including the oral part, has been practiced for many years in different regions. The student is left alone with a computer equipped with special software, headphones and a microphone. He receives tasks and completes them on record, which will then be assessed by independent experts. On September 10, a presentation of this technology for conducting the Unified State Exam took place at the Situation Information Center of Rosobrnadzor. It is planned that the Unified State Exam in a foreign language will become the third compulsory exam in 2020.

Slide description:
Essay for admission to the Unified State Exam in the Russian language 2015. The essay is returned to the final exam. Now it will be a pass to the Unified State Exam, preceding it: the essay will have to be written in December. It will be assessed on a pass/fail system. The criteria for checking essays, of which there will be no more than 10, will be announced before October 1. If unsuccessful, the essay can be rewritten, twice - in February and at the end of April - beginning of May. Students with disabilities can write a presentation rather than an essay. The opportunity to write an essay is also provided to graduates of previous years planning to enter universities. To do this, they need to attach themselves to the nearest school. Thematic directions of the essays: “It’s not for nothing that all Russia remembers...” (for the 200th anniversary of M.Yu. Lermontov); “Questions asked of humanity by war”; “Man and nature in domestic and world literature”, “Dispute of generations: together and apart”; “How do people live?”
Slide 14
Graduates of the eleventh grade, according to an already established tradition, are awaiting the Unified State Exam (USE). Compared to previous years, there have been innovations. We will tell you about them.
New USE tests 2015: Russian language
For children with health problems, the essay will be replaced with a presentation. Students who fail in the winter will be given the opportunity to rewrite in early spring. For more detailed information about assignments, topics and requirements, please refer to the article:.
New Unified State Exam in Mathematics 2015
Innovations also affected the compulsory exam in mathematics. The modern approach to mathematics education involves dividing tasks into 2 parts: basic and specialized. Graduates have the choice of taking one or both. For educational institutions whose list of required tests includes the subject “Mathematics”, a specialized option will be required. It will consist of section 1 (9 short answer tasks) and section 2 (5 short answer tasks and 7 full answer tasks). The passing minimum is 27 points. You can prepare for the exam using special testing and measuring materials (CTMs), developed on the basis of the school curriculum and taking into account the specifics of the Unified State Exam. You can read more about the mathematics exam.
Changes in the Unified State Examination in a foreign language
Those wishing to take the foreign language test in 2015 will have to speak. For now, it is up to the graduate to decide whether to take the speaking test or not, but the choice will affect the final scores. The maximum can be obtained only if the written part (80 points) and the oral part (20 points) are passed.
The speaking part will be taken separately. Electronic CMMs will be used for this. Graduates will answer the questions posed, speak out in detail on the problem, and their voice will be recorded with a special device. The graduate will be able to listen to his speech after the exam. You can find out more about how to prepare for an oral and written exam in a foreign language.
New CMMs
Testing and measuring materials (CMM) for the Unified State Exam 2015 will be arranged according to new principles. According to the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements, they will be made up of tasks published on the FIPI website.
Changes in the timing of the Unified State Examination
Fundamental changes in the Unified State Exam 2015 will affect the nature and timing of exams. Let us remember that until this year there were three streams: the main one, as well as additional and early. The main stream consisted of this year's graduates, the rest included those who, for some reason, were unable to pass the Unified State Exam on time.
In 2015, the process was significantly simplified. Everyone writes tests from April to June. As before, Russian and mathematics are considered mandatory. Applications for other subjects must be submitted by March 1st. An unsatisfactory or too low result will be retaken at special Unified State Exam centers at any time.
There will be no testing in July. The updated exam schedule 2016 is available here.
Some subjects (such as geography), the program of which ends in 10th grade, can be taken at the end of the course.
Rosobnadzor strives to make the exam as transparent as possible. Schools will continue to use video surveillance, including in real time, and observers will continue to work. Sites where measuring materials are posted will be monitored especially carefully.
In those regions where delivery of packages with CMMs is possible only a day before the exam, forms will be printed directly in the classrooms.

Changes in the Unified State Exam 2015 are of concern to every student completing their studies at a general education institution this year. Employees of the Ministry of Education annually analyze the experience of past years and propose innovations that should increase the objectivity of assessing the knowledge of Russian schoolchildren. What awaits school graduates in 2015-2016?
Changes in the Unified State Examination in 2015. What awaits graduates when taking exams?
In 2015, all school graduates will face a lot of changes in the Unified State Examination. Some of the innovations have already been tested during exams in 2014.
And first of all, this concerns the reduction of the test part. According to experts, multiple-choice exam questions cannot help correctly assess knowledge, since there is a possibility of guessing the answer. The entire test part will be excluded in Russian language, literature and mathematics. For other subjects it will be kept to a minimum.
Changes in the Unified State Exam 2015 The year is also expected in foreign languages: now graduates will have to demonstrate their ability to speak. But the oral part of the exam will not be mandatory - it will be worth only 20 points out of 100, and students will take it at will. First of all, these will be schoolchildren claiming high scores.
In order for a student to be admitted to take the unified state exam, he must write an essay. It will be conducted long before the start of the Unified State Exam tests and will be assessed on a pass/fail basis. Thus, all students who fail an essay will have time to rewrite it. The essay is planned to be carried out in schools in the middle of the last academic year.
Officials have also strengthened information security. From 2015, during exams, video surveillance will be conducted in each classroom. Tests will also vary in different time zones. In the past, information was leaked so quickly that when exams started in one time zone, the correct answers immediately appeared on the Internet, and they could be used by students whose testing began later. Different tests will improve objectivity when taking exams.
Don't know your rights?
Responsibility for violating the rules will also increase. If a student is caught in an exam with things that are not required for testing, then he will only be able to demonstrate his knowledge after a year. For teachers, a fine of up to 40 thousand rubles is provided for violating the rules.
Pleasant moments for schoolchildren in the innovations of the Unified State Exam 2015-2016.
Many of changes in the Unified State Exam 2015-2016 should please graduates. Starting from 2015, questions from the unified state exam will use materials from an open database of tasks. Anyone can get questions on the website of the FIPI (Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements), whose specialists develop tasks for exams.
Another pleasant moment that awaits schoolchildren in 2015-2016 is the opportunity to take a mathematics exam at 2 levels: basic and specialized. For example, if a student does not plan to enter a higher educational institution, then it is enough for him to know the answers to basic questions that will be useful to him in the future in life. You will have to demonstrate deeper knowledge in mathematics only if you plan to enter educational institutions in which mathematics is a mandatory entrance test.
Some school subjects are not taught to students until the 11th grade, but they have the opportunity to choose these disciplines as optional exams. From 2015, schoolchildren will be able to take such subjects not at the last stage of their school life, but after completing their studies in this subject. For example, the Unified State Exam in Geography can now be taken in 10th grade.
Changes in the Unified State Exam 2016. What innovations await graduates?
The changes planned for 2016 should also please students of Russian general education institutions. For example, it will be possible to retake the Unified State Exam 3 times.
At the moment, many experts note that the results of the Unified State Exam may incorrectly demonstrate the knowledge of students, since the lack of the opportunity to retake the exam causes serious psychological pressure. In addition, on the day of the exam, the student may not feel well, may not get enough sleep before testing his knowledge, etc.
According to changes in the Unified State Exam 2016 This year, students will be able to take the Unified State Exam 3 times if the initial results do not satisfy them. This will also eliminate the fact that schoolchildren are indignant about the fact that their test in the exam turned out to be more difficult than that of their comrades. There is no chance that the same ticket will be found in all retakes.
According to employees of the Ministry of Education, the possibility of retaking the unified state exam should reduce the psychological burden on graduates. Graduates of 2015 will be able to retake the exam only in the next academic year. So far, these changes have not yet been finally approved, but most officials believe that such innovations should have a positive impact on the quality of assessment of schoolchildren’s knowledge.
In the 2014-2015 academic year the following changes will be made:
1. Only students who have successfully written a final essay will receive admission to the Unified State Exam (the test essay is to be completed in December, graded on a pass/fail system, 2 attempts at writing an essay are possible: in December with the possibility of retaking it in February.)
2. Upon admission to a university, students will be able to receive additional points for the Unified State Exam in the Russian language by submitting their final essay to the university. Universities will evaluate essays independently. Also, applicants will be able to receive additional points upon admission to a university if they have a gold or silver medal, medals from the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the World Championships, or have won prizes at All-Russian Olympiads for schoolchildren. Universities determine the list of personal achievements and the possibility of receiving additional points for them independently.
3. The Unified State Examination in a foreign language will have an oral “speaking” part.
And after 2015, changes such as:
1. The question of canceling block “A” (it is possible to post assignments from block “A” in the public domain);
2. The introduction of a profile and basic level of the Unified State Exam is being considered: - basic - solution to block “B” (maximum up to 70 points); -profile solution of blocks “A” and “C” (maximum up to 100 points).
In the future, it is planned to give the student the opportunity to choose not only the exam block, but also the course itself: for example, basic in one subject and more advanced in another. Those. Schoolchildren will have the right to choose subjects that interest them and gain deeper knowledge in them.
3. It is planned to create independent centers for passing the Unified State Exam throughout the Russian Federation, which will be able to take state exams several times a year. In a number of regions, such centers are already operating in pilot mode. It is possible that three attempts to pass the exam will be free, and subsequent attempts will be paid (to cover the costs of organizing the Unified State Exam).
Changes that affected educational subjects:
In the Unified State Examination in the Russian language, Part “C” will be expanded, a two-level exam system will appear: for admission to humanitarian universities, graduates will take the exam at the profile level, and for admission to technical universities - at the basic level and an oral part will be introduced.
The Unified State Examination in mathematics will also have a two-level exam system: for admission to technical universities, graduates will take the exam at the profile level, and for admission to humanitarian universities - at the basic level.
In the Unified State Exam in social studies, the option of having an oral part is considered.
The Unified State Exam in Physics is considering a proposal to introduce physics as a compulsory subject for the Unified State Exam.
In the Unified State Examination in geography, biology, literature and history, an oral part may appear. Also, the Unified State Examination in Literature considers the issue of holding an exam in the form of an essay.
The option of introducing the Unified State Examination in computer science and ICT in computer form is being considered.
