Whether there is Alternative for Unified State Exam?

What should be the final exam, as objectively as possible to check students' knowledge: as a direct and open dialogue with the examiner, a detailed written response or testing? The Soviet graduates passed examinations in core subjects of the school curriculum in the 1980s. System of assessment of students' knowledge varied over the years. In the early 2000s the experiment with the introduction of the Unified State Examination (USE) - the form of the state final examination on educational programs of secondary education began in Russia. In 2008, over a million students in all regions of the Russian Federation passed USE, and the following year it became the only form final test and basic - the entrance exams to universities. According to experts, the exam allows to evaluate student knowledge and skills more objectively than traditional methods of examinations. Requirements for graduates with the increased and exam results have become a "pass" for admission to universities.

  After a long debate the law-in-draft "On Amendments and Addendum to Certain Legislative Acts" was supported by 31 parliamentarians. It will be finalized taking into account the relevant ministry voiced comments and suggestions for the second reading.

It is worth noting that our colleagues in the State Duma of the Russian Federation also raise the question of abolishing the exam. Biased assessment of knowledge of graduates by the deposit of a single state examination confirms the process of continuous improvement. Russian students wrote "The president's work" in December last year. Ministry of Education PMR is also planning to introduce this form. The writing will be the admission to the exam in the native language. It is also planned to introduce a two-level pass of the exam in mathematics. Thus, pupils will have the choice to take a basic level of complexity or profile, depending on whether, on what specialty university plans to do graduate.
