For what they get additional points to the exam

The Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation rarely pleases graduates and their parents with any pleasant surprises, but sometimes it happens. A good gift in 2017 was additional points to the points earned on the USE, which could be obtained (and even this year can be) for individual achievements. All that has changed is the number of coveted DP points: if last year there were 20 of them, then this one - only 10, which is associated with the wave of enthusiasm for "last year" applicants claiming additional points.

For which you can get additional points to the exam in 2018.

In current years, the following is implied:

Certificate of general secondary education with honors (gold medal).
Victory or simply participation in the Olympiad / Olympiads or other creative and intellectual events, as well as sports. In this case, DP points are not taken into account if the applicant received them in the main subject for admission.
Only graduation class victories are counted. In the case when an applicant achieves success in Olympiads in several disciplines, only one, the most "weight" one, goes to the "piggy bank".
Champion or prize place in the Olympic, Deaflympic and Paralympic Games. In this case, points are counted only for one achievement in the sports field (assignment of a category is not considered an achievement).
Gold / silver badge for the TRP standards (if the applicant enters the university in a profile not related to sports and physical education).
Volunteer activity (it is important that no more than 4 years have elapsed since its implementation).
And, of course, additional points are awarded in some universities for the final essay.

Why do I need extra points?

It is far from always that the achievement of a passing score guarantees an applicant admission to the chosen university. In higher educational institutions in Moscow, competition among applicants is always high, so the question of how to get additional points for the USE does not lose its relevance this year, since additional points can become a decisive factor for successful admission in a highly competitive environment.

Your good deeds can also be taken into account when entering. Of course, simply moving the grandmother across the street or saving the kitten is not enough in this case. Volunteer activity must be documented (show the volunteer book). No more than 4 years should pass from the date of its completion. Usually, 1-2 points are awarded for participating in charitable projects. But not all universities do this.

7. Contests

They take into account the participation of applicants in creative and intellectual competitions, which are aimed at identifying outstanding abilities. Basically, bonuses are awarded for prizes in competitions close to the profile of the university. For example, MEPhI adds 3 points to the winners of the "Practice on Models" competition, and gives 3-4 points or more to the winners of the "Aerobatics" open competition in the areas of physics, mathematics and information technology. The national championship in professional skills among disabled people and people with disabilities "Abilympix" also belongs to the same item.

Does a modern student need a gold medal? What are the benefits of it? How do you get this prestigious award? Let's figure it out together.

In this article:

A little about the history of the award

The first gold medal was given to a student in 1828, back in the Russian Empire. Since then, it has been canceled several times, then returned again. The last cancellation took place at the end of 2013. The reason is that medals were given out in huge numbers, and this was not always justified. In addition, then they did not give any advantages in admission. This decision of the Ministry of Education and Science caused a negative reaction from society, therefore it was revised by the State Duma. In May 2014, the President signed a decree, according to which schools began to re-issue gold medals to pupils "For Special Success in Learning."

The gold medal is awarded in a solemn atmosphere

How do I get a gold medal? Conditions for obtaining in 2020

The decision to issue a gold medal is made by the teachers' council of the school and coordinated with the local department of the Ministry of Education. To receive the reward, you must fulfill certain conditions:

Have final grades "excellent" in all subjects of the compulsory school curriculum for the 10th and 11th grades (the arithmetic mean of the sum of annual and semi-annual grades rounded in accordance with the laws of mathematics).
Confirm the gold medal with USE points: At least 70 points for the Russian language and specialized mathematics (or 5 points for basic mathematics). You must pass it the first time!

And some regions of Russia have established their own awards for excellence in studies. For instance, in Moscow, according to the information on the portal of the Mayor of Moscow, the medal will be given to the one who fulfilled one of the conditions:

> won the All-Russian Olympiad for schoolchildren

> got 100 points for the Unified State Exam in Russian or Mathematics,

> scored 220 points for three subjects of the exam (this is 73.3 points for each exam)

For a graduate with disabilities there are two more options:

> complete the 11th grade with excellent marks and score at least 146 points for the Unified State Exam in Russian and specialized mathematics,

> or 73 in Russian and get 5 in basic mathematics.

Gold Medal - a prestigious award for exceptional academic achievement

What are the benefits of a gold medal

Of course, the medal will not open the doors for you to everything, but it will still provide some bonuses. Upon admission, she gives additional points, which are summed up with the results of the exam. According to the Moscow Mayor's portal, it will also provide an advantage for enrollment if you and another applicant without a medal score the same number of points. However, we have not heard that universities also make this indulgence to excellent students.

To confirm that you have a gold medal, you must provide a certificate to the admissions committee.

How many points are awarded by universities for a gold medal

Upon admission in 2020, you will be able to earn up to 10 additional points inclusive. What numbers to establish, each university decides independently. Information about additional points can be obtained on the official website of a particular university. To do this, you need to find the section "Individual achievements" in the admission rules. Here are some additional points in 2019 established by some of the famous educational institutions of the country:
