System for assessing the performance of individual tasks and the examination work as a whole
CMM tasks are graded different quantities points depending on their type. Completion of each task in Part 1 is worth 1 point.
Part 1 task is considered completed if the examinee gives an answer that corresponds to the correct answer code. For completing each task, you are assigned (in a dichotomous grading system) either 0 points (“task not completed”) or 1 point (“task completed”).
Answers to tasks in Part 1 are automatically processed after scanning answer forms No. 1.
Maximum amount primary points, which can be obtained for completing tasks in part 1, is 23. Completing tasks in part 2 is scored from 0 to 4 points.
Answers to tasks in Part 2 are checked and assessed by experts. The maximum number of points that can be obtained for completing tasks in part 2 is 12.
Maximum primary score – 35.
The transfer of Unified State Examination points is made after the primary result is calculated; based on the approved scale, it is converted into test scores.
They are playing important role upon admission to a university and are recorded in the exam certificate.
Those who are finishing 11th grade and preparing to enter a university are especially interested in learning how the transfer is carried out score Unified State Exam.
Hundreds of thousands of students undergo this procedure every year. To obtain a certificate, it is enough to pass only two subjects - mathematics and Russian language.
The remaining subjects - and there are 14 in total - are taken on a voluntary basis, depending on the chosen university.
In order for the results to be displayed in the certificate, the graduate must score more than the established minimum.
How are the Unified State Exam results assessed?
The exam results are assessed by a commission and translated into a 100-point system.
There is an algorithm for converting these amounts into more familiar estimates. This method has not been officially used since 2009.
But if you wish, you can familiarize yourself with the scale for converting Unified State Examination grades.
The results are assessed in two stages:
- Based on the number of tasks completed, the student is given a primary score. It consists of the sum for all tasks completed correctly;
- Next, the primary Unified State Exam scores are converted to test scores. This figure is recorded in the Unified State Examination certificate and plays an important role for admission to a university. Below is a translation table for the math exam.
Important: The scale was developed taking into account the complexity of the tasks.
Up-to-date information on the Unified State Exam can always be obtained on the portal http://ege.edu.ru/ru.
What is the minimum score?
To receive a Unified State Exam certificate, a student must score above the established minimum limit in Russian language and mathematics.
It is determined annually for each separate subject. In fact, the minimum grade is the equivalent of a C.
This result reflects that the student has satisfactorily mastered the curriculum.
Minimum score:
- Determines the issuance of a certificate of passing the Unified State Exam.
- It is established for each subject annually after passing the exam and before the results are published.
At the end of 2016, to obtain a certificate it was necessary to obtain at least 36 test points in the Russian language.
In mathematics this limit is 3, and in the specialized level - 27.
The difference between primary scores and test scores
When assessing the results of passing the exam, the primary amount is first set. Then these USE 2017 scores are converted into test scores.
They are determined on a 100-point scale. This score will appear on the Unified State Examination certificate if it is higher than the minimum.
When calculating points, the algorithm is as follows:
- For each correctly completed task, one or more points are awarded.
- At the end, the amount for all the work is calculated.
- The primary Unified State Exam scores are being translated.
Regarding test scores, they are counted on a 100-point system. But the amount of primary may differ for different items.
For example, in mathematics you can get 30 primary points, and for foreign languages this limit is 80.
The assessment of the task depends on its complexity. For tasks in Part B, one primary point is awarded for the correct answer.
For part C, there are several options: for tasks 1 and 2, 2 primary points are awarded; the correct answer to question 3 and 4 immediately gives 3, and tasks 5 and 6 will add 4 points to the student’s result.
Unified State Exam scores and grades
Although there is an approximate scale for converting Unified State Exam scores into grades that are familiar to all students, starting from 2009 this system has not been used.
The refusal to convert to grades is due to the fact that the sum of points does not affect the indicator in the certificate. It is recorded in a separate certificate.
If a student scores less than the minimum in one of the required subjects, he will not be issued a certificate or certificate.
If this is a subject that is taken on a voluntary basis, the result simply will not be counted anywhere.
If the exam results result in an unsatisfactory grade, what should I do? It all depends on what subject.
- If the number of points scored is below the minimum in mathematics or in the Russian language, you can retake the exam in the same year on one of the reserve days.
- When an unsatisfactory grade is received in both subjects at once, a retake is possible only the next year.
- If you fail to score enough points in an optional subject, you can only retake the exam next year. An unsatisfactory result will not be reflected in any document. In fact, everything will look as if the graduate did not take this exam at all.
Depending on the subject, retaking is possible either in the same year on reserve days or in the next year.
Thus, if a student fails Basic Level Mathematics, he or she can take advantage of reserve days.
And if low grade obtained based on the results of the profile level, a retake will be possible only after a year.
What to do if a graduate does not agree with the assessment
If a graduate is confident that his work deserves a higher grade, he has the right to appeal.
In such a situation, the work will be reconsidered by the conflict commission.
There are two possible outcomes. When a grade appears to be too low, the student can either have points added or deducted.
Important: According to the results of the Unified State Examination in 2010, of all the appeals filed, the third part was satisfied.
The first two parts of the exam are tested without human intervention. The possibility of errors cannot be ruled out.
This may be due to illegible handwriting and similar circumstances.
If it appears that the grade is too low, students will appeal.
What does the exam consist of?
The general text of the task consists of three parts.
- Part A is designed as a test. Of the four proposed answer options, the graduate must choose one correct one.
- In Part B, the following types of tasks are possible: writing a one-word answer, choosing several correct options, or establishing correspondences.
- In Part C, the student is asked to give a detailed answer to the question.
Depending on the type of task, the verification process differs. The first two parts are checked automatically. Answers are scanned by the system and scored.
This process takes place without human intervention. Upon completion of the test, the results are sent to the testing center located in Moscow.
Part C is assessed by two independent experts. If the results coincide, this total is displayed.
If a minor discrepancy is found after evaluation, the average result is displayed.
If there is noticeable inconsistency, a third specialist is appointed.
After the verification is completed, all data is sent to a single testing center. There they are processed and recorded in the database.
From there they are sent to schools where the exam was held.
How Unified State Exam results affect university admission
In order to apply for admission to a university, graduates need to pass the Unified State Exam.
In total, you can apply to 5 universities, in each of them no more than three specialties.
The application is prepared in writing and delivered in person or sent by mail.
If the second option is selected, you will need to submit ordered letter with a description of the contents, as well as a notification of delivery.
To find out whether the application was approved, you need to go to the official website of the university.
When the acceptance of documents is completed, a list of those applying for enrollment is posted there. Their results of passing the Unified State Exam are also given there.
Enrollment takes place in two waves.
- When the first list is published, several days are allotted for applicants to provide the originals of their documents (in most cases they send copies).
- If the deadline for providing documents has expired, but there are still some free places, the second list is being prepared.
To enroll in a university, you will need the following package of documents:
- application requesting admission;
- certified copies of the certificate and identity document;
- a form with a list of points scored based on the Unified State Examination results;
- photographs (their size and number are established by the university rules).
Other documents may also be required from the applicant. For getting detailed information, you need to contact the university of interest.
The transfer of Unified State Exam points in 2017 is carried out according to the same system as in previous years.
To pass the exam, you must score at least the minimum number of points, which is established for each subject annually.
To obtain a certificate and Unified State Exam results, you need to exceed this limit by compulsory subjects.
How to convert primary scores into test USE 2015 in Russian language
Below is a scale for converting primary scores of the profile Unified State Examination in mathematics in 2019:
- The initial score obtained is transferred to the test score. Each task in the test part is worth 1 point. Writing tasks - from 2 to 4 points
- To pass the threshold along profile Unified State Examination you need to solve at least 6 problems, that is, score 6 primary or 27 test points.
Moreover, you can notice that the first part is very “expensive” in terms of points; for one task in the first part you can get 1 raw point, which is recoded into 5 or 6 test points!
- If you solve all the problems in the first part correctly, you can type 62 points.
- If you solve the entire first part, numbers 13, 15 and 17 (most often these are the numbers that are solved by those who have a solid “5” in school), then you can dial 80 points.

- Further points can be taken in geometry (No. 14, 16), parameters (No. 18) or number theory (No. 19). If you solved, for example, No. 14, took a couple of points on No. 19, solving a) and b) - this is already 88 points.
- So to dial above 80 points you need to be able to solve problems on at least one of these topics or several:
- options,
- planimetry,
- stereometry,
For example, you solved 12 problems, but made a mistake in one, as a result you get 11 primary and 56 test points, but could get 62 points (!), if they hadn’t made a mistake in some number, it could have even been the simplest number 1. If you make a mistake again, you will get 50 points for the first part. A point for the simplest task No. 1 “weighs” the same as one point for complex planimetry No. 16; the computer doesn’t care where you scored it. The main strategy is to be careful in the first part.
Examination plan for the Unified State Examination in mathematics
The duration of the work is 3 hours 55 minutes. If you plan to complete tasks high level difficulties numbered 18-19, then the first part No. 1-12 should take you no more than 30 minutes.
Good luck to everyone on the exam!
