11th grade students for whom it has already begun Last year them school life, I'm interested in the question of whether the USE in history will become a mandatory subject in 2019, as well as what changes are possible in the structure of tickets and what will be the date of the exam.

We will tell you what the exam will be for graduates of the 2018-2019 academic year, what new FIPI prepares for the subject "history" and what should be correct preparation to get a high score.

Is history a compulsory subject or not?

The results of 2017 and 2018 show that history is one of the most difficult subjects of the USE for many graduates. Nevertheless, the Ministry of Education believes that every graduate should thoroughly know the history of his people, and the important factors influencing the result are insufficient training of students and the low quality of teaching the subject in the regions.

The country's leadership sees the only way out of transferring the USE in history to the rank of compulsory subjects, which will oblige all schoolchildren to take the study of the discipline more seriously, and the school leaders to control the quality of teaching and the work of teachers. In her speeches, Olga Vasilieva repeatedly raised the topic of the obligatory exam in history: We invite you to listen to what the minister said in August 2018 about upcoming innovations regarding the English language and history during a live broadcast with Vladimir Putin.

At the end of October 2018, the decision on the third compulsory subject was not officially made, so one can hope that in the upcoming 2019 the USE in history will remain one of the subjects to choose from.

Nevertheless, even if history, as before, remains in the package of electives, discipline will be mandatory for admission to Russian universities in such areas as:

• history;
• jurisprudence;
• regional studies;
• tourism;
• archeology, etc.

the date of the

In the draft timetable for the exam 2019, the following days are allocated for history:

	Main date	Reserve day
Early period
Main period		06/18/19 and 07/01/19

The complexity of the subject and possible problems

Many students who passed the USE in history in previous years associated a rather low result with a number of inconsistencies in the materials of KIMs and textbooks that are used in the school curriculum and, accordingly, according to which 11th graders are preparing for exams.

Important! It should be borne in mind that the history exam covers a fairly wide time range, which will require memorizing a large amount of material, including dates and information about important personalities who, in one way or another, influenced the course of history from ancient times to the present day.

How to solve this problem? Naturally, some changes will be made to the USE history tickets developed for 2019. But, in order to get a high score, you need to make every effort at the preparation stage, namely:

1. It is necessary to learn not only dry dates and facts. It is important to organize information and draw certain conclusions, which will help to answer "difficult questions" using logical reasoning, and not just look for a familiar picture.
2. Do not limit yourself to the information provided in the textbook, because it is impossible to fit everything into a paragraph. Always try to "go beyond the school curriculum" to know more.
3. Consider all the available options for trial tests and assignments from previous years, examining each in detail and dwelling on its features.

2019 changes

Anyone who plans to take the USE in history in 2019 should not worry. No significant changes in the structure and content of CMMs are expected. Although last year there was a proposal to introduce the oral part in the subject of "history", the exam for the 2018-2019 academic year will be held in the same format as in the previous season - in the form of multilevel tests with short and detailed answers.

CMM structure and task specifics

To perform work out of 25 test items(including a short essay) the examinees will be given 3 hours 55 minutes (235 minutes). Use any Additional materials and equipment is prohibited.

The distribution of tasks for CMM 2019 will be as follows:

	Response type	Number of tasks	Time for 1 task
	Deployed
	The writing

At the same time, in each part there will be tasks of the basic and increased levels of complexity, and the high level will be met by the examinee only in the 2nd part of the ticket and this will be an essay. It is worth noting that in 2019 the essay topics have not been changed, which means that preparing for the exam in history will become a little easier, because there is a lot of material on the Internet to help graduates.

Assessment of work

When calculating the final amount of points, experts take into account 24 test questions and 7 criteria for assessing a historical essay, which in total gives 31 parameters for calculating test points.

The maximum examiner can score 55 primary points, which will correspond to the resulting 100 test points. The distribution of questions by levels is as follows:

		Primary scores
Elevated
Total

In this case, experts will take into account the following evaluation criteria for an essay:

1. Correct indication of events, taking into account the topic of the essay.
2. Availability of information about important historical figures whose activities influenced the development of Russia in this historical period.
3. Arrangement of cause-and-effect relationships between the events of the period.
4. Assessment of the impact of the events of the described period on the further history of Russia.
5. Competent use of historical terms.
6. The presence of factual errors.
7. The form of historical presentation.

Preparation secrets

History is not an easy subject, but it is really quite possible to pass it by 100 points! This is confirmed by the experience of many students who received the maximum score on the exam and successfully entered the chosen specialty in best universities Russia.

How to do it? The first and main condition is a well-structured preparation process. For students with a high score in the subject, it may well be independent work on tickets, but for children who have certain difficulties and gaps in knowledge, it is better to put the preparation process for the exam into the hands of an experienced tutor.

Teachers recommend starting preparation by determining the level of knowledge available. It is very easy to do this - just go through the USE last year and evaluate your result by checking the answers with the correct options from the database. Critically assess your level and determine which topics are the most difficult for you and therefore need special attention.

Next, it is worth going into direct preparation. You can find a complete list of historical periods and events that are worth working out and repeating in the codifier that FIPI developed specifically for the 2019 USE in history.

We suggest you read the material right now and download the file for further work offline.

Having identified the most difficult topics, it is worth looking for as much material as possible about the historical period and its outstanding personalities. A complete list of dates and important events can be found in the memo:

There are difficulties with memorizing a large number of dates - try using a special technique, the effectiveness of which has been proven by both scientists and ordinary schoolchildren.

Low score appeal

If you do not agree with the points that were awarded based on the results of the examination of the examination paper by experts, you must file an appeal on time. The whole algorithm for protesting the result looks like this:

• Submission of the application no later than the due date (see the calendar of the exam 2019).
• Personal presence at the consideration of the appeal (be prepared to calmly, intelligibly and competently explain why you do not agree with the decision of the commission).
• Obtaining the decision of the commission.

Important! According to the law, parents or an official representative can accompany a graduate who appealed the decision. If you want a teacher or tutor to be nearby at this moment, you will need to officially certify his status by visiting a notary.

Will an appeal help? Practice shows that many children have managed to prove that they are worthy of higher marks. But, even if the commission does not find the given arguments a sufficient argument for revising the assessment, it will definitely not go below. Of course, in this situation, parents need to take into account the psychological factor, because not every 11th grader has sufficient stress resistance and is ready to go all the way, defending his right to a high mark.

In 11th grade, it is not necessary to know all the dates from the textbook by heart. It is enough to master the mandatory minimum, which, believe me, will come in handy not only in the exam, but also in life.

So, your preparation for the OGE and USE in history must necessarily include memorizing several of the most important dates in Russian history. Stay on top of the most important events in national history- and to make it easier to master them, you can, for example, write the entire minimum on cards and divide them by age. Such a simple step will allow you to start navigating history by periods, and when you write everything on pieces of paper, then unconsciously remember everything. Your parents and grandparents also used a similar method, when there was not even a trace of the exam and the GIA.

We can also advise you to say the most important dates in the history of Russia out loud and record it on a dictaphone. Listen to the resulting recordings several times a day, and best of all - in the morning, when the brain has just woken up and has not yet absorbed the usual daily dose of information.

But in no case do we recommend that you try to memorize everything at once. Take pity on yourself, in a day no one has yet managed to master the whole school curriculum on the history of Russia. The USE and GIA are designed to test how well you know the full course of the subject. So do not even think to somehow cheat the system or hope for the students' favorite "night before the exam", as well as a variety of cheat sheets and "answers to the GIA and USE in history 2015", of which there are so many on the Internet.

With the leaves, the last hope of careless schoolchildren, it was always strict at the state exams, and every year the situation becomes even more complicated. Examinations in grades 9 and 11 are held not only under the strict supervision of experienced teachers, but also under the supervision of video cameras, and you know, it is almost impossible to outsmart technology.

So get enough sleep, don't be nervous, develop your memory and memorize 35 most important dates in Russian history. Relying on yourself is the best thing that can help you in passing the exam and the state exam.
