Passing the OGE in the year of the date. What innovations do the deputies propose to make?

The main state exam (also called the OGE) is a test that every 9th grade graduate must pass. It is this that becomes for schoolchildren a kind of start in life and a guarantor of further education: based on the results of the OGE, a student can move to grades 10-11 and then enter a university, or go to a college or technical school to receive initial vocational education and a junior bachelor’s degree.

Every year there are rumors in the Russian media that the OGE may well be cancelled. However, in 2018 this form of examination is here to stay. Schoolchildren finishing 9th grade will have to pore over textbooks and demo tests, and parents should worry about purchasing the latest teaching aids or seek the help of tutors to be sure that their child will move to the next educational level.

To pass the OGE with the highest score, you will have to engage in self-education

In the preparation process, do not forget that FIPI annually makes changes to KIMs aimed at increasing the objectivity and completeness of knowledge testing, and Rosobrnadzor publishes news about innovations in the methodology and procedure for conducting the OGE. So that these innovations do not become an unpleasant surprise for you, we will tell you about the intricacies of conducting the OGE-2018.

What is OGE?

The first step is to figure out what the above abbreviation is. How does it differ from the GIA - the most common concept indicating the certification of high school graduates? GIA (state final certification) consists of two forms of examination:

• the state final examination (GVE), which is intended for taking in closed educational institutions (i.e. for pupils of juvenile delinquent colonies or boarding schools), as well as for students who studied in foreign institutions, and disabled children;
• the main state exam (OGE), which is precisely the main type of certification. It is this test that the bulk of 9th grade graduates of Russian schools must pass. Like the Unified State Exam for eleventh graders, the Unified State Exam is based on the decision of KIMs, takes place on certain days and is checked by members of special commissions.

Innovations in OGE-2018

Every year, specialists from FIPI and Rosobrnadzor publish changes that relate to the rules for certification. Let's take a closer look at possible innovations for 2018.

Increased number of exams

Let us remember that until 2014, students had to pass the test in four subjects. Two of them - the Russian language and the mathematics exam - were passed by everyone, and two more could be chosen individually. In 2014, it was decided to oblige ninth-graders to take only two compulsory disciplines, and they could choose the rest on a voluntary basis. This innovation immediately affected the level of overall performance and the number of exams.

Approximately 90% of all students limited themselves to passing Russian and mathematics. If in 2013 more than 40% of all students passed social studies, then in 2014 this figure dropped to 9%, 3.5% of schoolchildren chose biology (in 2013 there were 21.5%), and only 4.1% chose physics (in 2013 – 12.8%). Therefore, starting in 2016, it was decided to return to the practice of passing four exams.

In 2018, schoolchildren will be forced to take a test in 5 subjects (Russian language and mathematics will be mandatory, and three more will be optional), and by 2020 the Ministry of Education promises to increase their number to six. According to experts from FIPI, this approach will help encourage schoolchildren to engage in self-development, increase overall academic performance, and also lead to an increase in the number of students attending preparatory courses.

What disciplines can you choose from?

The opportunity to choose three disciplines concerns history, biology, computer science, social studies, physics, foreign languages ​​(currently English, German, Spanish and French are available for testing), as well as geography, chemistry and literature.

Does the exam result affect the grade on the certificate?

The grade received at the OGE-2018 is taken into account when generating the certificate. If in 2016 the certification scores were influenced only by the OGE grades in mathematics and the Russian language, then from 2017 the final document of a ninth-grader will also take into account the scores for selective subjects. By the way, documents for graduating from high school will be issued only to those students who were able to pass at least 4 out of 5 subjects with a grade of “satisfactory” or higher.

It is worth noting that the principles for assigning points for mathematics have changed. If in past years algebra and geometry were assessed separately, now a single scale of marks in mathematics is being introduced. In general, the conversion of points into grades will proceed as follows:

• ticket for Russian language gives you the opportunity to score a maximum of 39 points. In this case, a grade of “5” will be given if the student scored 34 points or more, “4” – 25-33, “3” – 15-24 points. Moreover, to get an A, you also need to score at least 6 points for literacy. If a student intends to study in a specialized class in the future, he needs to score at least 31 points for the OGE;
• CMM by mathematics allows you to score a maximum of 32 points, of which 14 are allocated for algebra, 11 for geometry and 7 for real mathematics. To score “5” you need to score at least 22 points, “4” – 15-21, “3” – 8-14. Moreover, to get a C you need to score at least 3 points in algebra, 2 in geometry and 2 in real mathematics. If a student applies to continue studying in a specialized natural science class, he needs to have at least 18 points for this OGE (10 for algebra, 6 for geometry, 2 for real mathematics). For those who wish to study in the economy class, the selection starts from 18 points (9 - algebra, 3 - geometry, 5 - real mathematics). If your dream is a physics and mathematics class, you will need to manage to score 19 points, with at least 11 in algebra, 7 in geometry, and the rest in real mathematics;
• exam on physics assumes that a student can write a ticket worth a maximum of 40 points. The mark “5” is given to those who score more than 31 points, “4” – 20-30, “3” – 10-19. For the specialized class, it is recommended to select students who managed to earn 30 points and above;
• maximum score for the exam chemistry equal to 34. The mark “5” is given for points equal to 27 and above, “4” – 18-26, “3” – 9-17 points. If you want to get into a chemistry class, you should try to score at least 23 points for your ticket. At the same time, a different type of ticket may be offered for special schools, including a real experiment. In this case, the work can be written for a maximum of 38 points, and the marks are distributed as follows: “5” – from 29, “4” – 19-28, “3” – 9-18 points. Students who score 25 points and above are recommended for the specialized class;
• the maximum you can get for biology, equals 46 points. The mark “5” means that the student received 37 points, “4” – 26-36, “3” – 13-25 points. The benchmark for enrollment in a specialized class is 33 points for completing CMM;
• exam on geography allows you to get a maximum of 32 points. To score “5” you need to score 27 points, “4” – 20-26 points, “3” – 12-19 points. In order to get into a class with in-depth study of this subject, you need to score at least 24 points;
• the maximum you can get for social science, equals 39 points. Those who score at least 34 points will be able to get “excellent”, “good” – 25-33, “satisfactory” – 15-24 points. Enrollment in the biology class is recommended for students who have received at least 30 points for this exam;
• exam on stories assumes that a student can write a ticket for a maximum of 44 points. The mark “5” is given to those who wrote a ticket with 35 points or more, “4” – scored 24-34 points, “3” – 13-23 points. For the specialized class, it is recommended to select students who managed to earn 30 points and above;
• ticket for literature gives you the opportunity to score a maximum of 23 points. In this case, a grade of “5” will be given if the student scored 19 points or more, “4” – 14-18 points, “3” – 7-13 points. If a student intends to study in a specialized class in the future, he needs to score at least 15 points for this OGE;
• CMM by computer science allows you to score a maximum of 22 points. To score “5” you need to score at least 18 points, “4” – 12-17, “3” – 5-11 points. If a student applies to continue studying in a specialized class, he needs to have at least 15 points for this OGE;
• ticket for foreign language the maximum score is 70 points. Those who score at least 59 points will be able to get “excellent”, “good” – 46-58, “satisfactory” – 29-45 points. Enrollment in a foreign language class is recommended for students who have received at least 56 points on the exam.

Is it possible to retake the exam?

As already mentioned, in 2018, ninth-graders will have to take five exams. Specialists from the Ministry of Education took into account the possibility that one of the students might “fail” several subjects. In this case, they will be given the opportunity to retake, but they can only retake the test in two subjects. Perhaps in 2018 this number will be expanded to three. If more “unsatisfactory” grades were received, the student remains for a repeat year of study.

Who checks the exam papers?

Another innovation in 2017 was the tightening of the work verification procedure. From now on, the knowledge of high school graduates will be assessed not by a commission assembled from specialists from regional educational authorities, but by members of a federal commission. In this way, Rosobrnadzor hopes to reduce the number of cases of abuse by regional teachers, since in each region of Russia, grades for the same answer were often given based on completely different criteria.

What dates are the OGE exams taken?

The dates on which the OGE-2018 will be held have not yet been determined. However, based on the experience of past years, we can say that the OGE-2018 will have 2 stages. One of them is the main exam dates, the second is early dates. Early examinations usually begin on the twentieth of April, the main dates are in May-June, and retakes are in September.

Changes in CMMs 2018

KIMs for passing the OGE are considered to be sufficiently mature today, so FIPI does not yet plan to make any significant changes to them. Let's take a quick look at the specifications of recent years' tickets so that you know what you'll be faced with in the exam.

Mathematics

KIM in mathematics includes 26 tasks, distributed into 3 modules:

• algebraic, consisting of 11 problems;
• geometric, including 8 problems;
• real mathematics, which contains 7 problems.

Some of the tasks (No. 2-3, 8 and 14) require the student to choose from the options and write down a short answer on the sheet; the answer to the remaining tasks is a number or some sequence of numbers. You need to solve the ticket in 3 hours and 55 minutes.

Russian language

The ticket includes only 15 tasks that must be completed in 3 hours and 55 minutes. The CMM is divided into three parts:

• The first of them is one task in the form of a written work, which must be written based on the material listened to. You will be able to view it twice;
• the second - 13 tasks in the form of simple tests with one correct answer, or tasks that need to be answered with a word, number or phrase;
• the third part involves writing an essay-argument on one of the topics offered in the ticket.

By the way, you can use a spelling dictionary during the exam, so it’s worth checking your literacy to get a good mark.

Social science

KIM on this subject - 31 tasks that need to be completed in three hours. There are two components to the ticket:

• the first of them involves solving 25 tasks for which you need to choose and write down a short answer;
• the second is a part in which there are only 6 tasks, they need to be answered in a detailed form.

Chemistry

Like last year, the work will have 2 parts, which together consist of 22 tasks:

• the first part asks students to solve 19 tasks. The answer must be written down in short form;
• in the second part there are only 3 tasks, but they will be more complex and require a solution and a detailed formulation of the answers.

Chemistry can be solved within two hours.

Biology

The ticket contains 32 tasks, divided into 2 parts:

• the first is 28 tasks that require a short answer;
• the second - only 4 tasks, requiring the student to give a detailed, reasoned answer.

You can work with tests for three hours.

Geography

This CMM consists of 30 tasks that need to be completed in two hours. Answers to tests 1 to 8, 10 to 13, 21 to 22 and 27 to 29 must be in the form of a number corresponding to the number of one of the proposed answers. Tasks No. 9, 14, 16 to 19, 24 to 26 and 30 require an answer in the form of a word or several numbers.

The most difficult tasks are numbers 15, 20 and 23. Here you need to try to demonstrate deep knowledge of the subject by giving a comprehensive answer to the question and supporting it with arguments. By the way, during this exam you will be able to use atlases, rulers and non-programmable calculators.

Physics

The ticket is quite small - only 26 tasks, divided into two parts:

• Part 1 is 21 tasks that require a short answer;
• part 2 – 5 tasks to which you need to give a reasoned answer.

In this case, you can work with a ticket for three hours.

Computer science

Today, this CMM consists of two parts, which contain two dozen tasks. The first part of them (No. 1-18) are simple tests that require a short answer. The second part (2 tasks in total) is designed to demonstrate the student’s computer skills. 2.5 hours are allotted for the exam. However, remember that you can start working on the second part only after you hand in the answer form for the first part of the ticket.

Story

KIM in history is 35 tasks that need to be completed in three hours. There are two components to the ticket:

• the first of them involves solving 30 tasks for which you need to choose and write down a short answer;
• the second is a part in which there are only 5 tasks. They need to be answered in a detailed form. At the same time, in tasks numbered 31 and 32, you will need to demonstrate your skill in working with a historical source, since the answer requires the presence of arguments and the presentation of factual material.

Literature

The ticket is small, but will require you to demonstrate your level of language proficiency and the ability to argue your point of view. In the first part of the KIM, you will be able to choose one of the text options for a literary work. One of them is epic literature, the second is a poem or fable. You can decide for yourself what will be easier to work with. For each option, three tasks are proposed to be solved. The answer to the first two questions must be reasoned based on the content of the proposed passage.

In addition, you will need to write a short reflective essay in which you will need to compare two fragments of literary works. The second part of the work is an essay on one of four topics. Here you need to not only write your opinion, but also support it with quotes from literary sources. However, do not be alarmed - at the OGE you will be able to use a collection of lyrical works. A total of 235 minutes are allotted for work.

Foreign languages

Some changes were made to the latest sample KIMs regarding the wording of task No. 36, relating to the “speaking” section. Students are now offered several phrases that must be used when they are revealing a certain topic.

The OGE is the main state exam that schoolchildren take in the 9th grade, and 2018 will be no exception.

The exam is designed to monitor students' acquired knowledge over all years and is necessary for admission to technical schools and colleges. For students who decide to continue their education at school, this is a dress rehearsal for taking the Unified State Exam. Based on the results, it will be possible to draw conclusions about which subjects you need to focus on so that the grades on the certificate are as high as possible.

What changes will occur in the system of final certification of ninth-graders, and why are these changes inevitable?

There will be two compulsory subjects for the OGE 2018, as in previous years:

• Russian language;
• mathematics.

The question of how many subjects to take for the OGE in 2018 is of interest to many children and parents, because rumors have been circulating about innovations for a long time. Representatives of the Duma, led by Deputy Minister of Education Natalya Tretyak, decided back in 2015 on the need to introduce additional exams in 2017 and 2018.

Already this year, 2017, the rules have become stricter. Instead of 2 compulsory subjects, there are now 4, and in 2018, their number may increase to 5, although this issue is still under discussion. In any case, you need to start choosing additional subjects and preparing for the exam as early as possible.

What innovations do the deputies propose to make?

1. In 2018, it is planned to introduce another compulsory subject, and thus ninth-graders will need to pass 5 exams.
2. By 2020, it is planned to introduce two more mandatory exams, which means that the number of subjects taken will increase to six.
3. Those who fail to pass the four main subjects will not receive a certificate and will be forced to retake the test in August.

It is not yet known which OGE will have to be taken in 9th grade in 2018, but there are rumors that history (or social studies) and physics will be mandatory subjects to take. Thus, children will have to prepare much more effectively for passing all standards.

Reasons for the increase in the number of compulsory subjects

Trying to find out what compulsory subjects are included in the OGE in 2018, parents are faced with a stream of unreliable information. The thing is that the innovations have not yet come into force, but their activation is only a matter of time.

There are several reasons why the State Duma wants to increase the number of mandatory exams:

• the percentage of schoolchildren taking additional subjects in addition to compulsory subjects has fallen sharply;
• according to deputies, the small number of compulsory subjects for passing has a negative impact on the level of knowledge of schoolchildren;
• Passing a wide range of subjects in 9th grade will help your child cope more successfully with the Unified State Exam upon graduation from school.

The statistics cited by deputies are harsh: after taking two compulsory elective subjects was canceled in 2014, the number of ninth-graders taking additional social studies dropped from 41% to 9%. The number of those who take biology on their own initiative also decreased from 21% to 3.5%, and such statistics are relevant for all disciplines. Children who know that they only need to pass two subjects do not bother to choose any additional disciplines, which negatively affects the quality of their knowledge. It is not yet known exactly how many exams there will be in the OGE in 2018, but most likely there will be 5.

Changes in the OGE 2018 in Russian

The biggest changes may affect the mandatory Russian language exam. Namely, its oral part. There has been a lot of discussion about this recently, but now more specific information has emerged about what awaits us in 2018.

FIPI (Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements) began working on changes to the exam in 2015. But a professional discussion took place only now. In 2017, the new model was tested in a number of schools from different regions of the country. As a result, the absolute majority of teachers and experts supported it.

There are 2 options for oral form:

1) use of a headset and recording of the examinee’s answers, with their subsequent analysis;

2) acceptance by the examination committee. In this case, the presence of an independent expert will be necessary to verify the objectivity of the points awarded.

The final decision on the inclusion of the oral part in the OGE in the Russian language will be made before November of this year.

Features of conducting exams according to new standards

Having figured out how many subjects for the OGE will be taken in 2018, all that remains is to find out how the innovations will affect the examination process itself. What changes in the OGE have already occurred or are yet to come in 2018?

1. Since 2017, grades in compulsory subjects directly affect the student’s school certificate.
2. The OGE in computer science is now taken on a computer.
3. If before 2016, grades were given on different scales in each region, and teachers themselves set the threshold of “two”, then since 2017 a single scale has been introduced for all educational institutions. (Order of Rosobrnadzor No. 920-10 dated April 26, 2017)
4. A certification system has been introduced in the fourth grade to improve the level of knowledge of schoolchildren. The possibility of introducing additional certification in primary grades is also being considered.
5. The system of CMMs, that is, control and measuring materials, in the 9th grade from 2018 will also no longer be developed by teachers in the regions according to the proposed options, but will become uniform for the entire country. Today they are trained by more than one hundred and fifty specialists in 11 federal commissions.

All these innovations seem too complicated, especially if we take into account the fact that previously passing the OGE in the 9th grade was not mandatory at all. However, according to deputies and the Ministry of Education, the introduced changes will have a positive impact on children’s academic performance and on increasing the overall level of their intellectual abilities.

According to the 2018 OGE, Russian language and mathematics will remain the main compulsory subjects for passing, but additional ones will appear. In addition, ninth-graders will be able to choose optional subjects to pass, which will help them enroll in a specific educational institution. The introduction of additional certifications in primary and secondary schools will help children better prepare for the Unified State Examination and reduce the number of “Fs” in exams. The introduction of all these changes will be preceded by a global discussion in the State Duma. However, the annual increase in the requirements for passing the OGE with almost 100% probability will lead to the fact that the number of exams for ninth-graders will at least double.

OGE 2018 in Crimea and Sevastopol

An exception has been made for schoolchildren in Crimea and Sevastopol and, according to Federal Law No. 293-FZ of October 27, 2015, in 2018 they can take the OGE according to the established uniform rules, or refuse and pass the certification using the old form.

This concession was made taking into account the fact that the program in which they had previously studied was noticeably different from other Russian schools. Apparently, 2018 will be the last year when 9th graders in Crimea will not have to take the OGE.

Additional OGE subjects

If suddenly a student wants to move to another class, for example with in-depth study, or lyceum or with an individual approach, then in this case there may be a need to take additional disciplines. - in-depth, lyceum or, perhaps, with an individual approach.

Additional subjects can also help in training before the main Unified State Examinations for high school graduates.

There is no reason yet that the number of additional exams in 2018 will change - there will be, as before, 2. The list of additional GIA exams for grade 9 looks like this:

• story;
• social science;
• literature;
• geography;
• biology;
• physics;
• chemistry;
• computer science and ICT;
• English language;
• German;
• French;
• Spanish language.

It ruins the nerves of most students who graduate from high school. When everyone else is already heading off for summer vacation, it's time for achievements for ninth graders. Good scores for the OGE are an opportunity to receive an excellent certificate and a key to the doors of prestigious lyceums and gymnasiums with specialized classes in natural and humanities subjects or physical and mathematical disciplines.

The compulsory subjects, as before, include and. Two more disciplines remain for the student to choose from. Students who have studied the languages ​​of the nationalities of the Russian Federation in the form of the subject “native language and literature” can take it as a selective OGE. Of course, this exam is not as scary as the Unified State Exam, but anyone who wants not only to go to the 10th grade, but also to get a decent mark, should devote time to careful preparation.

You can repeat and reinforce the material in different ways: some students find it easier to study at home, while others need a tutor who will identify and correct mistakes, give additional tasks and explain the material. In any case, to properly distribute your efforts, you need to know on what dates a particular exam will be held. We will tell you on which days specialists from Rosobrnadzor have scheduled exam tests!

Schedule of early session of the OGE

It is worth noting that only some ninth-graders will be allowed to attend the early session. The following can apply to take tests before the start of the main period:

• students who “failed” the OGE in the past;
• schoolchildren whose parents decided to move to live abroad or send their offspring to a foreign college;
• children who are prescribed a set of rehabilitation measures or medical procedures during the main examination;
• athletes, as well as smart men and women representing the interests of Russia at competitions, Olympiads and competitions of the federal or world level.

After submitting an application and providing official documents confirming the fact that the student has the right to take the OGE ahead of schedule, you should count on the following dates:

• 04/20/2018 – the day on which the preliminary mathematics test is scheduled;
• 04/23/2018 – date reserved for history, biology and physics, geography and OGE in foreign languages;
• 04/25/2018 is the day allocated by Rosobrnadzor for the OGE in the Russian language;
• 04/27/2018 – on this day it will be possible to write computer science and ICT, take social studies, testing in chemistry or literature.

If force majeure circumstances are recorded in the region on the day allocated for the exam, the OGE may be postponed to the following dates:

• 05/03/2018 – reserve for writing mathematics;
• 05/04/2018 – reserve for tests in history, biology, physics and geography, as well as examinations in foreign languages;
• 05/07/2018 is a reserve date for the Russian language;
• 05/08/2018 – reserve for all disciplines that are submitted for control in the form of the OGE.

Main Exam Period

On these dates, most 9th grade graduates will take the test. The schedule for 2018 is as follows:

• 05/25/26/2018 – dates for taking foreign languages;
• 05/29/2018 – day reserved for the Russian language;
• 05/31/2018 is a key date for students who are writing the OGE in social studies, biology, computer science and ICT or literature;
• 06/02/2018 – the main day of the OGE for students taking physics, computer science and ICT;
• 06/05/2018 is the day for the mathematical OGE;
• 06/07/2018 – time to take history, chemistry, geography or physics;
• 06/09/2018 is a day set aside for social studies.

Any force majeure circumstances that may lead to failure of the OGE will automatically reschedule the exam to the following days:

• 06/20/2018 – reserve for the Russian language;
• 06/21/2018 – reserve for mathematics;
• 06/22/2018 – reserve for social studies, biology, literature, computer science and information and computer technologies;
• 06/23/2018 – reserve for foreign languages;
• 06/25/2018 is an additional date for history, chemistry, physics and geography tests;
• 06/28-29/2018 – general reserve days for all subjects.

Period of additional session of the OGE

There are cases when a student manages to pass the OGE “unsatisfactorily” or misses the exam due to illness or other valid reason, confirmed by documents or certificates. In this case, the relevant department meets the students halfway (of course, if they have not “failed” both compulsory subjects), and provides them with the opportunity to rewrite the test in an additional session. It will be possible to take the OGE on the following days:

• 09/04/2018 – date for those who retake the Russian language;
• 09/07/2018 – day reserved for mathematics;
• 09.10.2018 – date allocated for the OGE in history, biology, physics or geography;
• 09/12/2018 – an additional day for social studies, chemistry, computer science and geography;
• 09/14/2018 is the date allocated for foreign languages.

The additional period also has reserve days. In 2018, these dates will be:

• 09.17.2018 – for Russian language;
• 09/18/2018 – for history, biology, physics or geography;
• 09/19/2018 – for mathematics;
• 09/20/2018 – reserve for social studies, computer science and information and computer technologies, as well as literature;
• 09/21/2018 – for foreign languages;
• 09/22/2018 – for all academic disciplines.

“Exams” is a word that not only 11th grade graduates fear, but also those who are younger. Ninth-graders in Russia also have a hard time, because at the end of the school year, a specially constituted commission checks their level of knowledge using the main state exam (abbreviated OGE).

It is this test that decides the fate of the student and gives a chance for further studies in grades 10-11 or for admission to college (technical school). Every ninth grader can start preparing for the exam, especially since it is already known what date the OGE 2018 will be held.

It just seems that the end of the school year is still far away. In fact, time will fly by unnoticed and only truly prepared students will be able to pass the exam with an “Excellent” rating.

Or maybe the OGE will be cancelled?

This thought slips into the minds of 9th grade students year after year. Of course, such a decision would be beneficial for the guys, but, alas, this form of examination will be valid not only in 2018, but also in subsequent years. So, schoolchildren do not need to complain about the rigor of the educational process, but should quickly take up their textbooks, take demo versions of tests in order to expand their horizons of knowledge and come fully armed.

I would like to note that the participation of parents plays a huge role in preparing students for exams. If mothers and fathers make sure that their child has all the latest methodological developments and manuals, and also turn to tutors for help, then there is no doubt that the child will cope with this test without much difficulty.

During preparation, one must not forget that FIPI periodically makes changes to KIMs that help increase the objectivity and completeness of knowledge testing among 9th grade students.

You can learn about all the innovations and subtleties of the OGE on the Roskomnadzor website, where news is posted promptly and is available to every user on the Internet.

What is OGE?

In order to understand what to expect from this exam, you need to understand its essence. The above abbreviation should not be confused with the state final certification (GIA), which is also faced by those graduating from high school.

OGE is part of and is the main link in certification. This is the test that most ninth-graders in Russian schools undergo. Just like the Unified State Exam, this exam takes place on certain days and is controlled by members of specially created commissions.

In addition to the OGE, the state final certification includes the GVE or state final exam. As a rule, it is taken by students of closed educational institutions, namely in colonies for juvenile offenders, in boarding schools. The GVE is also taken by students of foreign institutions, as well as disabled children.

Changes to the OGE planned for 2018

Upcoming innovations in the OGE are aimed at improving the examination process and they look like this:

• The grades obtained on the exam will affect the certificate.
• A common scale of marks is being introduced with a common minimum threshold for everyone.
• KIMs are the same for all regions of the country, i.e. options for them will be developed not separately by regions, but at the federal level.

• The Computer Science exam will be taken using a personal computer.
• If during the exam a student received a “Fail” in three or four subjects, then it will be possible to retake the OGE only next year, i.e. the child is left for the second year.
• Some regions are planning to introduce an oral exam in the Russian language.

As for the increase in compulsory subjects, this will not happen in 2018. As before, the OGE will have two compulsory disciplines (mathematics and Russian), and will also add two elective subjects. Officials adopted this innovation based on the fact that testing only two disciplines does not allow broadening the student’s horizons.

In addition, additional subjects in the exam will help the student enter educational institutions (or classes) with a specialized focus.

Those who will take the OGE in 2018 can now familiarize themselves with the full list of subjects available for selection:

1. Literature
2. Physics
3. Biology
4. Geography
5. Social science
6. Story
7. Foreign languages
8. Computer science

How can the OGE affect the certificate?

Starting from 2018, the results of passing the state exam will affect the final mark in the certificate. That is, the student can either increase or increase his score. It turns out that if throughout the entire school year a student has not “done” a certain subject, but on the OGE he wrote it as “Excellent”, then instead of “4”, they will put “5” in the document.

OGE schedule for 2018

Just like the Unified State Exam, the OGE for ninth-graders is divided into three periods: early, main and additional. The dates are already known and you can check them out right now.

Is it possible to “cheat” on an exam?

After the answers to all state exams were leaked onto the Internet in past years, they decided to significantly improve the protection of options. At many points where knowledge testing is carried out, video cameras and metal detectors are installed.

However, there are brave souls who manage to bring paper cheat sheets to the exam. Although you don’t need to rely too much on luck, because you can be noticed at any moment. It is better to prepare properly before the exam and already during it, deftly using knowledge, cope with all the tasks with dignity.

Based on such a short observation period, it is impossible to accurately determine the distance at which asteroid 2006 QV89 will approach Earth on 09/09/2019, since the asteroid has not been observed since then (since 2006). Moreover, according to various estimates, the object may approach our planet not on the 9th, but on another date in September 2019.

As for whether 2006 QV89 will collide with Earth on September 9, 2019 or not - the likelihood of a collision is extremely low.

Thus, the Sentry System (developed by the JPL Center for NEO Studies) shows that the probability of a body colliding with the Earth is 1:9100 (those. about one ten thousandth of a percent).

The European Space Agency (ESA) estimates the chance of an asteroid crossing its orbit with our planet as 1 in 7300 (0,00014 % ). ESA placed 2006 QV89 in 4th place among celestial bodies posing a potential danger to Earth. According to the agency, the exact time of “flight” of the body on September 9, 2019 is 10:03 Moscow time.

In both Orthodoxy and Catholicism, Easter always falls on Sunday.

Easter 2020 is preceded by Lent, which begins 48 days before the Holy Day. And after 50 days they celebrate Trinity.

Popular pre-Christian customs that have survived to this day include dyeing eggs, making Easter cakes and curd Easter cakes.

We should greet each other on Easter with the words “Christ is Risen,” and respond with “Truly He is Risen.”

This will be the fourth game for the Russian team in this qualifying tournament. Let us remind you that in the previous three meetings, Russia “at the start” lost to Belgium with a score of 1:3, and then won two dry victories - over Kazakhstan (4:0) and over San Marino (9:0). The last victory was the largest in the entire existence of the Russian football team.

As for the upcoming meeting, according to bookmakers, the Russian team is the favorite in it. The Cypriots are objectively weaker than the Russians, and the islanders cannot expect anything good from the upcoming match. However, we must take into account that the teams have never met before, and therefore unpleasant surprises may await us.

The Russia-Cyprus meeting will take place on June 11, 2019 In Nizhniy Novgorod at the stadium of the same name, built for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Start of the match - 21:45 Moscow time.

Where and what time do the national teams of Russia and Cyprus play:
* Venue of the match - Russia, Nizhny Novgorod.
* Game start time is 21:45 Moscow time.
