What are the innovations in the Unified State Exam-2018

Unified state exam - the form of final certification approved in the Russian Federation. Each graduate of the school will have to go through it in order to receive a certificate and enroll in educational institutions for further education. Preparation for exams begins long before the 11th grade, with the beginning of the next academic year, graduates and teachers face the question: what to expect from the exam in the current year.

Answers can be obtained on the FIPI website - the official source for publishing "fresh" information on the status of affairs with final certification.

So, in 2018, some changes are expected in CMMs (control and measuring materials). They were announced in advance by the head of Rosobrnadzor Sergey Kravtsov, specifying that passing the exams would be much easier. The certificate says that the changes are not fundamental, only for a number of subjects the assessment system is being improved and the wording of some tasks is being clarified. This happens to differentiate the ability of the exam paper.

In KIMs in foreign languages, the criteria for completing tasks 39 and 40 are clarified. Changes in the structure of control and measuring materials did not affect computer science, however, task 25 excludes the possibility of writing an algorithm in natural language, and in a number of tasks the C language was changed to C ++ as more progressive and in demand.

More significant changes relate to literature, where the fourth theme of the essay was added and the maximum score increased from 42 to 57. The same applies to social studies (now the maximum score is 64 instead of 62). By the way, this is one of the most popular subjects among children, which is considered as a mandatory exam in the future. The primary score in the Russian language increased to 58, and in physics - to 52.

In chemistry, the developers added a high-level task, while the number of points in this subject has not changed.

For those who do not remember or do not know, I would like to note that the demo versions of KIM are already available on the official website of FIPI and are available for download and training.

This also applies to assignments for OGE - the final certification of tenth graders, for which KIMs have undergone changes in some subjects (literature, mathematics). However, they are not so significant, because in the preparation you can focus on the tasks of the past year.
