The total number of participants in the main period of the exam this year is more than 67 thousand people. This number has increased significantly compared to 2017, when 52.8 thousand people took the exam, and compared to 2016 (49.3 thousand people ), which corresponds to the trend towards the development of the digital sector of the economy in the country.
In 2018, compared to 2017, the share of unprepared exam participants slightly increased (by 1.54%) (up to 40 test points). The share of participants with a basic level of training decreased by 2.9% (range from 40 to 60 tb). The 61-80tb group of test takers increased by 3.71%, partly due to a 2.57% decrease in the share of the 81-100tb test takers. Thus, the total share of participants who scored significant for competitive admission to institutions higher education scores (61-100 TB), increased by 1.05%, despite a decrease in the average test score from 59.2 in 2017 to 58.4 this year. Some increase in the proportion of participants who scored high (81-100) test scores, is due in part to the improvement in the preparation of exam participants, in part to the stability of the examination model

Which programming language to choose, what tasks to focus on and how to allocate time on the exam
Teaches computer science at Foxford.
Different universities require different entrance exams in IT areas. Somewhere you need to take physics, somewhere - computer science. It is up to you to decide which exam to prepare for, but it should be borne in mind that the competition for specialties where physics must be taken is usually lower than in specialties where the Unified State Examination in computer science is required, i.e. the probability of entering "through physics" is greater.
Why then take the exam in computer science?
- It is faster and easier to prepare for it than for physics.
- You will be able to choose from more specialties.
- It will be easier for you to study in the chosen specialty.
What you need to know about the exam in computer science
The exam in computer science consists of two parts. In the first part there are 23 problems with a short answer, in the second - 4 problems with a detailed answer. There are 12 tasks in the first part of the exam basic level, 10 advanced quests and 1 quest high level. In the second part - 1 task of an increased level and 3 - high.
Solving problems from the first part allows you to score 23 primary points - one point for the completed task. Solving problems in the second part adds 12 primary points (3, 2, 3 and 4 points for each problem, respectively). Thus, the maximum primary points that can be obtained for solving all tasks is 35.
Primary scores are converted into test scores, which are the result of the exam. 35 primary points = 100 test points per exam. At the same time, more test points are awarded for solving problems from the second part of the exam than for answers to the problems of the first part. Each primary score received for the second part of the exam, will give you 3 or 4 test scores, for a total of about 40 final scores for the exam.
This means that at fulfillment of the exam in computer science, special attention should be paid to solving problems with a detailed answer: No. 24, 25, 26 and 27. Their successful completion will allow you to score more final points. But the price of a mistake during their implementation is higher - the loss of each primary score is fraught with the fact that you will not pass the competition, because 3-4 final scores for the Unified State Examination with high competition in IT specialties can become decisive.
How to prepare for solving problems from the first part
- Pay special attention to tasks No. 9, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, 20, 23. It is these tasks, according to the analysis of the results of past years, that are especially difficult. Difficulties in solving these problems are experienced not only by those who have a low overall score for the Unified State Examination in computer science, but also by “good students” and “excellent students”.
- Learn by heart the table of powers of the number 2.
- Remember that Kbytes in tasks means kibibytes, not kilobytes. 1 kibibyte = 1024 bytes. This will help avoid calculation errors.
- study carefully USE options previous years. The computer science exam is one of the most stable, which means that you can safely use the USE options for the last 3-4 years for preparation.
- Get to know the different options for wording assignments. Remember that a slight change in the wording will always lead to worse exam results.
- Read the problem statement carefully. Most of the errors in completing assignments are due to a misunderstanding of the condition.
- Learn to independently check completed tasks and find errors in the answers.
What you need to know about problem solving with a detailed answer
24 task - to find the error
25 task requires a simple program
26 task - on game theory
27 task - it is necessary to program a complex program
Problem 27 is the main difficulty in the exam. It is only decided60-70% writing the exam in informatics. Its peculiarity lies in the fact that it is impossible to prepare for it in advance. Each year, a fundamentally new problem is presented for the exam. When solving problem No. 27, not a single semantic error should be made.
How to calculate exam time
Be guided by the data that are given in the specification of control measuring materials for conducting the exam in informatics. It indicates the approximate time allotted for completing the tasks of the first and second parts of the exam.
The exam in computer science lasts 235 minutes
Of these, 90 minutes are allotted for solving problems from the first part. On average, each task from the first part takes from 3 to 5 minutes. It takes 10 minutes to solve problem #23.
There are 145 minutes left to solve the tasks of the second part of the exam, while solving the last task No. 27 will take at least 55 minutes. These calculations were made by experts Federal Institute pedagogical measurements and are based on past exam results, so they should be taken seriously and used as a benchmark in the exam.
Programming languages - which one to choose
- BASIC. It is an outdated language, and although it is still taught in schools, there is no point in wasting time learning it.
- School algorithmic programming language. It is designed specifically for early learning to program, it is convenient for mastering initial algorithms, but it contains almost no depth, there is nowhere to develop in it.
- Pascal. It is still one of the most common programming languages for teaching in schools and universities, but its capabilities are also very limited. Pascal is quite suitable as the language for writing the exam.
- C++. Universal language, one of the fastest programming languages. It is difficult to study on it, but in practical application its possibilities are very wide.
- Python. It is easy to learn at an elementary level, the only thing required is knowledge of English. At the same time, with an in-depth study, Python provides the programmer with no less opportunities than C ++. Having started learning Python at school, you will continue to use it in the future, you will not have to relearn another language in order to reach new horizons in programming. For passing the exam It is enough to know "Python" at a basic level.
Good to know
- Works in computer science are evaluated by two experts. If the expert evaluation results differ by 1 point, the higher of the two points is assigned. If the discrepancy is 2 points or more, the work is rechecked by a third expert.
- A useful site for preparing for the exam in computer science -
Each graduate who wants to become a student of one of the universities of the Russian Federation in 2018 faces a difficult task - to successfully pass the exam, as well as choose the right educational institution and faculty for submission of documents. The majority of 11th graders and their parents are faced with the final exam grading system for the first time and often find it difficult to find answers to the questions that arise. Therefore, we decided to shed light on important points.
In 2017-2018, the basic rules for passing the exam will not be significantly changed. This means that the 100-point system for grading final tests will still be relevant for graduates.
How is everything going?
In the course of checking the examination papers, for each correctly completed task, the graduate receives the so-called “primary points”, which, upon completion of the work check, are summed up and converted into a “test score”, which is indicated in the USE certificate.
Important! Since 2009, the scale for converting primary and test USE scores into traditional five-point grades for schools has not been officially used, because in 2017 and 2018 final exams are not included in the certificate.
Checking work is done in two ways:
- automatically (with the help of special programs and technical means);
- manually (the correctness of detailed answers is checked by two independent experts).
It is quite difficult to challenge the result of an automatic check. If the basic rules were not followed when filling out the answer table, the computer may not protect the result, and only the graduate himself, who did not follow a number of mandatory rules, will be to blame for this.
If disputes arise during peer review, a third specialist is involved, whose opinion will be decisive.
When to expect results?
The following time limits apply by law:
- data processing (according to compulsory subjects) in the RCSC should not last longer than 6 calendar days;
- for data processing (subjects of choice) RTsOI give 4 days;
- verification at the Federal Testing Center should take no more than 5 working days;
- approval of the results by the State Examination Commission - 1 more day;
- up to 3 days to send the results to the USE participants.
In practice, from the moment you pass the exam to getting your hands on official result may take 8 to 14 days.
Converting USE scores to grade
Despite the fact that officially in 2018 the scale for transferring points according to USE subjects in a five-point assessment is not used, many still want to interpret their result in a more familiar "school" system. To do this, you can use special tables or online calculators.
Table for converting OGE test scores into grades
Russian language | ||||
Maths | ||||
Informatics | ||||
Social science | ||||
Foreign languages | ||||
Biology | ||||
Geography | ||||
Literature | ||||
The second method is a little easier and more convenient than searching for the desired values in the cells of a huge table. It is enough just to choose a subject (mathematics, Russian, chemistry, physics, history, English language, social studies ... and other subjects), enter data and get the desired result in a matter of seconds.
We suggest trying how simple and convenient it is to use in practice the online calculators of the USE score and its conversion to a 5-point grade.

Converting USE scores to grades
Internet systems for applicants
The academic year 2017-2018 is over, the exam has been passed, the results are known, and even the interactive scale for transferring primary scores showed that USE result located in a fairly good range ... But, is this enough to enter the desired university?
Assess the real chances of entry, based on test scores and the minimum passing threshold set by the university.
Important! The minimum passing score is formed by the university itself. It will directly depend on the scores of applicants who apply in 2018. The more popular the specialty, the higher the passing score will be.
Often, at the TOP faculties, even 100-point results are not enough for admission to the budget. Only winners of the Olympiads, who give significant additional points, have a chance to see their last name in the lists of applicants for such areas.
In 2018, the most popular services for selecting a university and monitoring the entrance score threshold for various specialties will be:
- Ucheba.ru
- Apply online
- Calculator high school economy
- Postyplenie.ru
- Typical entrant
Finding these services is very easy. It is enough to enter their name into any search engine.
