“The existing USE format is being transformed in accordance with the proposals and comments that are formed in the course of professional and public discussion, and are always carefully considered by Rosobrnadzor, this is the key to the development and improvement of examination procedures.
This format most objectively assesses the compliance of the subject knowledge acquired at school with the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard and provides equal opportunities to all applicants from every corner of our country.
We believe that it is important to maintain a balance and approach changes thoughtfully, consistently and in advance, ”RIA Novosti quotes the press service of Rosobrnadzor.
According to a study by the National Research University Higher School of Economics, for the first time in ten years, the USE passing score for admission to a university for a state-funded place has decreased in Russia.
At regional universities, the passing score for a state-funded place decreased from 67.5 in 2019 to 66.9 in 2021.
The reason is the increase in the number of budget places, due to which applicants who had not previously passed through the points competition were able to enter the budget.
