USE - single state examheld in Russia in secondary educational institutions: schools, lyceums, gymnasiums. It is required for all graduates. Therefore, many schoolchildren are interested in how much is valid uSE result.
A bit of history
For the first time, the Unified State Exam began to be held in the early 2000s, when the exam was organized in several republics, as well as in 2 regions. In 2006, the event was held with 900,000 students in 80 regions of the country. Now schoolchildren take the exam in every region.
It is imperative to pass an exam in Russian language and mathematics, and the rest of the subjects are optional. After graduation, a certificate is issued, which serves as a confirmation of passing the exams. Many graduates are interested in how much the USE results are valid. In 2012, the document was valid for 1.5 years.
Since 2013, there have been changes. How long is the exam result valid now? This period is 4 years. It turns out that during this time the graduate can provide a document as confirmation of passing the exam.
Certificates from 2013 - 2014
The introduced legal norms establish how long the USE results are valid. Also, the norms are spelled out that universities must apply for admitting applicants wishing to receive undergraduate and specialty education.
After reading these rules, you can find out how many years the USE results are valid. This period is 4 years. This makes it much easier to enroll applicants, since admission to educational institution can be postponed a little, and re-certification is not required.
A separate category is conscripts. How long is the USE score valid for them? The service period is 1 year. And since the certificate is valid for 4 years, after returning from service, you can use the document for admission to study.
Contractors represent a special category. They can last 2 or 3 years. If the graduate was not enrolled in the army after leaving school, then after the service the question arises as to how long the USE results are valid. Will such a document be legal? The period of validity of the certificate for military personnel is extended by 1 year following the year of return from the army.
Certificate until 2011
Due to the changes, it is not clear to everyone how much the USE score issued before 2011 is valid. From 2009 to the receipt of the new rules, graduates received a certificate, where the results of passing final certification... The document was valid for 2 years, during which it could be submitted to universities.
New regulations are now in force, and therefore the certificate is valid for 4 years. For example, a certificate issued in 2015 will no longer be valid in 2020. Only the release of the new law will allow to change the term.
If multiple certificates
Some graduates have 2 USE certificates. For admission, you can choose any document, it all depends on the desire. This situation develops in the event that it did not work out, and the next year the exam was retaken.
The certificate of achievement can be used in case of successful completion of the compulsory subjects. The rest of the disciplines will be included in the document if a score was obtained above the minimum.
Cancellation of paper documents
Since 2014, applicants do not need to provide certificates in paper form, since the results are available in electronic form. The participant will be given information to access the Federal USE website. There he can easily find his data. In universities, the results can also be checked through electronic systems. The applicant only needs to pass a standard list of documents.
The Ministry of Education approved that new norms will be in force from 2017 passing the exam... The number of attempts to re-pass exams in major disciplines is increasing - up to 3 times a year. Many subject exams will remove questions that require a definite answer. The history will have to be taken not in tests, but in the form of an essay.
Universities have the right to increase the passing marks for admission, but the indicators cannot be less than the minimum approved in the region. Thanks to such changes, according to psychologists, the psychological pressure on graduates is reduced.
How long is the exam after getting the results? Having received the answer to this question, you can find out how long after leaving school you can enter universities without re-examination.
What is the validity period of certificates obtained in 2017-2018 and later?
With the introduction of the new Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation" dated December 29, 2012 No. 273-FZ, the rules have also changed, which establish how long the USE results are valid. So, in Art. 70 of this RLA defines the norms that universities should use when organizing the admission of applicants wishing to study under bachelor's or specialist's programs.
After reading these norms, it becomes clear how many years the USE results are valid: 4 years, starting from the one following the USE passing. In practice, applicants must calculate how long the results of the 2017 USE are valid, as follows: their results will be valid until 2021. It turns out that a school graduate can postpone his admission to the university for several years, and he will not have to pass the final certification again.
Separately, it is worth considering how much the USE-2017 is valid for conscripts. Now the term of service in the army is 1 year. And since the USE results are valid for 4 years, then after the soldier returns from service, you can safely use them.
Don't know your rights?
Interesting: the answer to the question: "How long is the exam valid?" - may have a different answer in one case. In accordance with clause 4.5 of Art. 15 of Law No. 273-FZ, conscripts within a year after dismissal have the right to use the USE results obtained 12 months before conscription. Additional conditions for the granting of such eligibility are admission to study on a budgetary basis in an accredited institution of higher or secondary specialized education.
How old was the Unified State Exam valid until 2011 inclusive

In view of the changes in the rules for admission to universities, which occurred simultaneously with the adoption of the new law No. 273-FZ, graduates who graduated from school before its adoption, especially in 2012, began to ask the urgent question of how long the USE results of 2012 and earlier are valid. It is due to the fact that, according to the new law, the USE results can be applied for 4 years.
From 2009 until the entry into force of the new rules, graduates were issued a certificate in which the results of their passing the final appraisals at the end of school. So, this certificate was valid for the year when the exams were passed, and the next year until December 31, inclusive. Thus, before a graduate could enter a university only 2 years in a row after passing the exam (as it was established in the old Federal Law "On Education" dated July 10, 1992, No. 3266-1), and now 4.
The most problematic was to determine how long the USE in 2012 is valid as the year in which the new rules were adopted. Since the law came into force in September 2013, after the final certification was passed, the new rules, in fact, should apply only to graduates of 2013. But in the letter of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation dated November 20, 2013 No. DL-344/17, when asked how long the Unified State Exam-2012 is valid, the following answer was given: until 2016. The department explains this by the fact that at the time of the adoption of the new law, certificates issued in 2012 and 2013 were in use.
To understand how long the USE of 2017 is valid, you need to refer to Law No. 273-FZ. It was in it that the validity of the results of the final attestation in schools was extended from 1.5 to 4 years. Now graduates of 2017 can use the USE until 2021 inclusive.
Most importantly, the answer to the question of how long the USE-2017 is valid will most likely not change. Even if it appears new law, it is unlikely that it will be retroactive.
Sergei Petukhov, RIA Novosti columnist.
Random check in a number of regions of about 1.36 thousand papers on the Unified State Exam (approximately 0.17% of all in the country) with marks of 80 points and above.
It is not yet clear whether this will be followed by a total check of high-score USE works throughout Russia, most likely not. On the other hand, it is very clear that exactly the same violations took place in previous years, but Rosobrnadzor did not seem to care much about them. The department was alarmed only this year, when the long-term USE-abscess finally burst.
But anomalies in USE statistics have existed for a long time, including geographic ones.
Local resistance?
According to the law, the decision to change the USE scores is made by a specific regional examination committee. According to media reports, Rosobrnadzor fears that the results of these spot checks will simply be ignored in the regions.
The USE in history, biology and computer science was held on May 30, but the answers to it reappeared on the web the day before. Watch the video RIA Novosti how exam tickets get on the Internet and is it difficult to buy them.Such fears cause surprise and even suspicion (perhaps unfair) that, by announcing in advance about the disobedience of local commissions, the federal department is trying to distance itself from the regional USE outrages. Although no obvious attempts to resist on the ground have yet been observed - and why would the regional commissions suddenly go into open conflict with their Moscow bosses?
Now the risks of both scenarios are probably assessed in the Ministry of Education and Science, and possibly in higher authorities.
On one side of the balance lies the determination to bring the transparency and honesty of the 2013 exam to its logical conclusion. On the other, there is a severe time pressure from the inspectors (from June 20, the acceptance of documents, including USE certificates in universities began), the projected ninth wave of appeals from those who will be demoted uSE scores, the grandiose scale of shifting applicants' applications from one university to another in connection with the changed results of their USE, which, in turn, will cause no less grandiose confusion in the work admissions committees, and as a result - the collapse of the entire admissions campaign in 2013.
You yourself can decide which will outweigh. If we restrict ourselves to only selective checks and adjusting the results of high-score work in the 18 regions already declared by Rosobrnadzor (this is 21% of all 83 regions of the Russian Federation, three more pieces can be added to them so that - for an even account - 25% of regions), then it turns out that and measures have been taken, and justice has been restored, and you can survive this without a grandiose scandal during the admissions campaign.
In addition, it is very likely that the USE procedure itself and its legislative regulation will be changed this fall, and thus the Ministry of Education and Science will secure itself, at least for the time of the USE-2014. Whatever its results, there will always be an argument: the Unified State Exam follows the new rules, one should not rush to conclusions, one should wait a year or two.
In a word, everything suggests that the revision of the Unified State Exam-2013 will remain selective, and four-fifths of those who passed it this year will remain with their scores.
For the 2013 applicants, one can put an end to this reassuring note, but one question remains for Rosobrnadzor: have their eyes opened just now? Did they really not know that the same situation with the USE in the same regions was last year, the year before last, the year before last, and so on?
Are we rounding everything up in the USE statistics?
Official USE statistics can be found on only two sites. On the "Official Information Portal of the Unified State Exam", which, judging by the copyright icon, belongs to Federal Service on supervision in the field of education and science, and on the website of the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements, which is also part of the Rosobrnadzor structure. There is no other official statistics on the Unified State Exam in nature, all other data, if you find them on the Internet, are just derivatives of the statistics of these two scientific and methodological institutions of the Ministry of Education and Science.
On the "Official information portal The USE "you can easily find data on" the number of USE participants in the regions of Russia who received 100 points on the USE in 2012. "This statistic is impressive in itself, do not be lazy, go to it at the specified link, and you will have a lot of questions.
For example, why in Dagestan last year there were only seven hundred points, and in the neighboring Stavropol Territory - 143? Why are there 28 100-point students in chemistry in the Bryansk region (every fourth of all Bryansk 100-point students), and in Tatarstan there are 10? Why not the other way around? After all, about highest level The Kazan chemical school has been known all over the world for a century and a half, and the Bryansk chemical school is not suspected, probably, even in Bryansk itself. Why in the same Tatarstan there were 66 100-point students in the Russian language, in neighboring Chuvashia - 57, and in Primorye there are only five of them, do the Koreans spoil the statistics there?
There is too much mystery in these numbers. For example, if you add up the number of 100 points in 2012 for all subjects in each region, you get a series of numbers in which a disproportionately large proportion of numbers ending in 0 or 5, for example, 5, 10, 25, 30, 40, are involuntarily striking. 50 and so on. Agree that this is very similar to a regional order.
For example, Komi is supposed to have five hundred-point marks, and she has exactly five of them. A check digit of 20 100 points for the Kurgan region has been designated, and there are exactly 20 of them. In the Republic of Mari El, the Volgograd region and the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, there are exactly 30 of them as if ordered by order. 16 100 points, and in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District not 9 or 11, but 15 and 10, respectively?
Of course, this could be an accident, a game of numbers. But against their will, memories of round numbers in the protocols of some precinct election commissions come to mind. Is the magic of check digits irresistible?
Bryansk Unified State Exam Phenomenon
You can endlessly admire the bizarre forms of regional USE anomalies. But we'd better try to find some ethnogeographic regularity in them. For example, let us divide the number of hundredbalnikov-2012 by the number of "person-exams" (the term was not invented by me, but by Rosobrnadzor).
Total in the past year of the exam 892561 people handed over. Each of them passed at least two compulsory examinations (in mathematics and Russian), and then chose the Unified State Exam in other subjects, and in total 3,032,121 exams were passed. In 3599 of them, the mark was 100 points. If we divide the second number by the first, we get the average share of 100-point USE in the country - 0.12%.
Now let's perform the same arithmetic operation for the regions. Based on the statistical data of the Rosobrnazdor portal, this is easy to do. As a result, the Bryansk region became the absolute champion in 100-point USE last year - 0.38%, that is, more than three times more than the average in Russia.
In general, the Bryansk USE-phenomenon is akin to the Chelyabinsk meteorite. There is a phenomenon, but there is no intelligible explanation for it. Natural anomaly, in general.
The second place was taken by Moscow with 0.3%, the third - the Stavropol Territory (0.26%), the fourth - Chuvashia (0.25%), and the Kirov region closed the top five (0.21%).
In Dagestan, by the way, the percentage of one hundred-point USE was only 0.008% (the same was in Chechnya). Only Yakutia (Sakha) - 0.006%, Tyva - 0.003%, as well as Karachay-Cherkessia, the Amur Region and the Jewish Autonomous Region, where no one scored 100 points on any Unified State Exam. How to take the exam in one of the most problematic regions of the country in this part of the country, watch the video RIA Novosti. Rosobrnadzor reported 30 cases of posting USE assignments in mathematics on the Internet.
This year, the television crews of the central channels, not yet knowing the results of the current USE, in advance unanimously rushed to Dagestan to shoot the "flagrant violations" there when passing the USE. And on talk shows on the same central channels, it was only heard on the Dagestan Unified State Exam-tourism and other Dagestan Unified State Exam-outrage. The Bryansk USE-phenomenon, stunning imagination, remained unexplored. As, however, and Moscow.
At first glance, there is nothing special about the fact that in Moscow the percentage of 100-point students on the Unified State Exam is exactly 2.5 times higher than the national average. You can always say that the teachers are better here, and the students are more developed and more focused on high results. But how then to understand the fact that the same indicator in St. Petersburg was equal to 0.12%, that is, there were exactly the same number of 100-point employees as the average in Russia?
I would very much like to see on TV a talk show on the topic: why St. Petersburg graduates are two and a half times more stupid than Moscow ones. But on TV they showed and discussed mainly the Dagestan Unified State Exam-ugliness.
Is it because they are naively simple and so obvious that it is much easier to stigmatize them than to look for who has so famously ate the Unified State Exam in the Bryansk Governorate, and much safer than trying to figure out what secret Unified State Exam methods are used in Moscow to be ahead of Peter so defiantly, against all the laws of probability theory?
In the near future, the Rosobrnadzor portal will have a complete uSE statistics by regions, and then any of us will be able, without waiting for conclusions, to independently carry out a "simple comparison of numbers" and personally see in which regions there was a "violation of obvious proportions" during the USE-2013.
Thanks for this opportunity is the USE. Let him seriously compromise himself as a tool for assessing the knowledge of graduates. But it turned out to be a very accurate instrument for measuring regional love of children. It's a pity to throw away such a valuable device.
Now the early stage of the Unified State Exam has started. Payments to academicians will increase from January 1, 2017 The schedule of the Unified State Exam-2016 has been published
How long does the exam function after receiving the results? Having received the answer to this question, you can find out how long after leaving school you can go to universities without re-examination.
What is the validity period of the USE certificates acquired in 2013-2014 and later
What is the validity period of certificates purchased in 2013-2014 and later
So, in Art. 70 of the provided normative legal act defines the norms that universities must use when organizing the method of applicants wishing to study according to bachelor's or specialist's programs. With the introduction of the new Federal Law "On Education in the Russian Federation" dated December 29, 2012 No. 273-FZ, the rules have also changed, which establish how long the USE results are triggered.
After reading these generally accepted standards, it becomes clear how many years the USE results work - 4 years. It turns out that a school graduate has the opportunity to postpone his admission to the institute for several years, and he will not need to pass the final certification again. In practice, applicants are required to calculate how long the results of the 2015 USE are valid, for example: their results will be valid until 2019.
Now the service life in the army is 1 year. And since the USE results are valid for 4 years, then after a soldier returns from service, it will be possible to safely use them. Separately, it is worth considering how many USE-2015 functions for conscripts.
Their 1st contract can be concluded for 2 or 3 years. And if the graduate did not go to the army immediately after school, then at the end of his service, the question arises of how long the USE, passed before the army, functions, and whether it is still possible to use it. Contractors are another matter. In accordance with the norms, the period of validity of the exam for the military can be extended by 1 year, due after returning from the army.

In view of the change in the rules for admission to universities, which occurred simultaneously with the adoption of the new law No. 273-FZ, graduates who graduated from a secondary educational institution before its adoption, especially in 2012, began to ask the burning question of how long are the results of the 2012 USE and earlier ones. It is due to the fact that, according to the new law, the USE results can be applied for 4 years.
For example, this certificate was valid in the direction of the year when the exams were passed, and the proper year until December 31, inclusive. From 2009 until the stage of the entry into force of the new rules, graduates were issued a certificate, in which the results of their final attestation at the end of school were recorded. Thus, previously a graduate could enter the institute only 2 years in a row after passing the exam (as it was established in the ancient Federal Law "On Education" dated 07/10/1992 No. 3266-1), and now 4.
The most problematic was to qualify how many USE 2012 is valid as the year in which the new rules were adopted. But in the letter of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation dated November 20, 2013 No. DL-344/17 to the question of how long the Unified State Exam-2012 has been functioning, the proper answer was given: until 2016. Since the new law came into force in September 2013, after the final certification was passed, the new rules, in fact, must only apply to graduates of 2013. The department explains this by the fact that at the time of the adoption of the new law, certificates issued in 2012 and 2013 were in use.
In fact, the period of validity of the results of the final attestation in schools has been extended from 1.5 to 4 years. Now graduates of 2015 have every chance to take the USE until 2019 inclusive. In order to understand how long the Unified State Exam in 2015 is valid, one must refer to Law No. 273-FZ.
Actually, most importantly, the answer to the question of how long the Unified State Exam-2015 has been functioning will most likely not change. Even if a fresh law appears, it is unlikely that it will undoubtedly have retroactive effect.
