Each of us has ever been faced with the task of speaking in writing or orally about...
Increasingly, parents of schoolchildren are turning to our school with a request to prepare future graduates for the Unified State Exam in English 2018. Therefore, we decided to write a detailed article in which we will tell you how to prepare for this exam: we will consider its structure and provide practical tips for successfully passing each part of the Unified State Exam. , and will also present the best textbooks and online resources for preparing for this difficult test.
What is the Unified State Exam in English 2018
The Unified State Examination in English 2018 is a final exam at school, which is counted as an entrance exam to a university, which is why it is so important to pass it with a high score. For now, this exam is not mandatory, but if a graduate is going to enter a specialized university, he needs to pass this test.
In structure and level of difficulty, the Unified State Exam is similar to the international FCE exam. This means that in order to pass successfully, the student must have a level (above average). This is a high level, so we recommend starting to prepare for the Unified State Exam in English from the 10th grade, then in 2 years the student will be able to master the entire required amount of material at a normal pace.
In principle, you can prepare to take the exam in 1 year, but only if at the time of starting preparation the student already speaks English at an (intermediate) level. Don't know what level the graduate has? Then invite him to pass.
How is the Unified State Exam in English held in 2018? The exam consists of written and oral parts, which are held on different days. On one day, schoolchildren take the written part, it includes the following sections: listening, reading, writing, grammar and vocabulary. In total, on this day the graduate needs to complete 40 tasks in 180 minutes. A student can receive a maximum of 20 points for each section. Thus, for this day you can score 80 points.
The second part - oral - takes place on another day and available upon request. It lasts only 15 minutes and consists of 4 tasks. On this day, a graduate can earn another 20 points. We strongly advise all graduates to take the oral part: in case of unsuccessful answers you do not lose anything, but in case of successful - earn extra points.
Thus, a graduate can score a maximum of 100 points in the exam. The minimum score to pass the exam is 22 points.
Below we present a table for converting Unified State Exam scores in English into a five-point system.
Unified State Exam results are usually published 14 days after passing the second part of the exam, but in some cases they are known after 12 days. You can find out your results on the official Unified State Exam website by filling out all the required fields. Paper USE certificates were canceled in 2014, so now only electronic certificates are available.
Structure of the Unified State Exam in English 2018 and principles for successfully passing each part
In this chapter, we will tell you in detail about what tasks the graduate will have to complete in each part of the exam. In addition, we will provide advice from our teachers who prepare schoolchildren to take the Unified State Exam. By the way, if you are looking for a teacher who will prepare your child for the exam, pay attention to. They have been doing this for several years now and have developed their own strategy for successful preparation; they know what pitfalls await them in the exam, what typical mistakes schoolchildren make and how to get rid of these mistakes.
As an example, we will present you with a demo version of the Unified State Exam in English, provided by the official website of the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements fipi.ru.
Listening
The listening test lasts 30 minutes and consists of three parts. The first two parts are the first and second tasks, respectively, and the third part is tasks No. 3-9 (out of a total list of 40 tasks).
Listening for the Unified State Exam in English in 2018 includes 3 audio fragments combined into one recording. The examiners turn on the recording and do not stop it until the very end, but there are pauses between fragments to read the tasks and transfer the answers to the form. For each correct answer in this and other parts of the exam, the student receives 1 point. Let's see what the graduate will have to do in listening.
Exercise 1: 7 statements are given. The student listens to 6 statements and matches them with statements, one of which is redundant.
6 points.
Example:
Listening task 1
Task 2: 7 statements are given. The student listens to the dialogue and determines which statements correspond to the content of the dialogue (True), which do not correspond (False), and which are not mentioned in it (Not Stated).
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Listening task 2
Task 3: 7 questions are given, each of them has 3 possible answers. The student listens to the audio recording and selects the correct answer to each question.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Listening task 3
Our tips:
- When preparing for the exam, you need to do as many listening tasks as possible in exam format. This way, the graduate will get used to quickly reading assignments and catching key words in speech that will help them find the correct answer.
- When choosing an answer, you need to rely not on the words mentioned in the speaker’s speech, but on the meaning of his words. So, for example, in his speech he may in one way or another mention all the answers to the task, but if you delve into what was said, you can understand that there is only one correct answer.
Reading
The reading lasts 30 minutes and consists of 3 parts (9 tasks). We recommend spending no more than 10 minutes on each part in order to complete the allotted half hour.
Exercise 1: There are 7 short texts (3-6 sentences each) and 8 headings. You need to read the texts and choose the appropriate heading for each of them. In this case, 1 heading will be redundant.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Reading task 1
Task 2: Given a text that has 6 gaps. Below are 7 passages, 6 of which must be inserted in place of the gaps.
Maximum points: 6 points.
Example:
Reading task 2
Task 3: A short text and 7 questions for it are given. For each question there are 4 answer options, from which you need to choose 1 correct one.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Reading task 3
Our tips:
- When completing the first task, you need to look for keywords that will indicate the meaning of the text and help you find the desired title. In addition, often the main meaning of a paragraph is reflected in the first sentence, and the rest give some minor details. Therefore, in some cases you just need to carefully read the first sentence in order to complete the task correctly.
- To successfully complete the second task, you need to have a good understanding of how complex sentences are constructed in English. The fact is that the missing part in most cases is part of a compound or complex sentence. For example, if a student understands that in the subordinate clause who is used in relation to people, which - objects, and where - places, he will be able to successfully complete most of the tasks. It also needs to be repeated, for example, that the infinitive is used to express purpose.
- In the third task, the questions are arranged in the order in which they are answered in the text. That is, the answer to the first question will be at the beginning of the text, and not in the middle or end, the answer to the second question will be after the answer to the first, etc.
Grammar and vocabulary
This section of the Unified State Exam in English 2018 tests the graduate’s knowledge of grammatical structures and vocabulary. The student is given 40 minutes to complete it. Let's see what the student has to do.
Exercise 1: Given a text in which 7 words are missing. To the right of the text are words that need to be transformed grammatically (for example, put the verb in the right tense) and inserted in place of the gap.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Grammar and vocabulary, task 1
Task 2: Given a text with 6 gaps. On the right are words that need to be transformed both lexically and grammatically - to form a single-root word that matches the meaning of the text.
Maximum points: 6 points.
Example:
Grammar and vocabulary, task 2
Task 3: Given a text with 7 gaps. You need to choose 1 correct answer out of the four proposed for each of them.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Grammar and vocabulary, task 3
Our tips:
- The transformation of a word in the first part, as a rule, occurs according to the following principle. If you are given a verb, you must either use it in the correct tense, put it in the correct voice (active or passive), or form a participle from it. If an adjective is given, you must put it in the comparative or superlative degree. If you need to change a numeral, most likely you need to make it ordinal.
- The second part mainly tests knowledge of suffixes and prefixes, including negative ones, and the ability to form different parts of speech from a word with the same root.
- In the third part, knowledge of word combinations, so-called collocations, is most often tested. In addition, out of 4 words, you will need to choose the most appropriate one in meaning, that is, you need to know the difference between similar words and read the context.
Letter
The graduate is given 80 minutes to write and check 2 written works.
Exercise 1: Given is the text of a short letter from a friend asking questions. The student needs to read it and write a response letter: answer the friend’s questions and ask him questions.
Volume: 100-140 words.
Maximum points: 6 points.
Example:
Letter, task 1
A letter to a friend is written in an informal style. The structure of this work is as follows:
- Making a “hat”
In the upper right corner we write the address: on the top line we indicate the city, below it - the country of residence. No need to write the street and house number: This may be considered a disclosure of confidential information, even if the address is fictitious.
After the address, skip 1 line and write the date the letter was written in the same upper right corner.
Next, as usual, on the left we write an informal address: Dear Tom/Jim (the name will be given in the task). It is unacceptable to write Hello here. After the address, put a comma and continue writing the text of the letter on a new line.
- Text of the letter
We start writing each paragraph with a red line.
In the first paragraph, you need to thank your friend for the letter you received (Thanks a lot for your last letter) and apologize that you didn’t write earlier (Sorry I haven’t been in touch for so long). You can also mention some fact from the letter you received.
In the fourth paragraph, you need to summarize - inform that you are finishing the letter (I’ve got to go now! It’s time for my favorite TV show), and offer to keep in touch (Take care and keep in touch!).
- End of the letter
At the end, you need to write a final cliche phrase, which is always followed by a comma: All the best, Best wishes, etc.
On the next line, under this phrase, you indicate your name.
Task 2: A statement (usually controversial) is given. The graduate writes an essay in which he discusses this topic, expresses his point of view, and also gives an opposing opinion and explains why he disagrees with it.
Volume: 200-250 words.
Maximum points: 14 points.
Example:
Letter, task 2
The essay is written in a neutral style and consists of 5 paragraphs:
- Introduction: we formulate the topic-problem and immediately indicate that there are two opposing points of view.
- Your opinion: we express our point of view (one) on this issue and give 2-3 arguments that confirm it.
- Opposing opinions: we write 1-2 opposing points of view and give arguments in favor of their existence.
- We express disagreement: we explain why we do not agree with the above points of view, and provide arguments in defense of our own opinion. However, they should not repeat the arguments from point 2.
- Conclusion: We draw a conclusion on the topic, point out that there are different points of view, and finally confirm our point of view.
Our tips:
- Stick to the required volume. It is permissible to deviate by 10% from the specified number of words, that is, you can write from 90 to 154 words in a letter and from 180 to 275 in an essay. If a graduate writes at least 1 word less (89), he will be given 0 points for the assignment. If the limit is exceeded, the examiner will count 140 words in a letter or 250 in an essay and evaluate it, and will deduct points for unfinished work, assignment design, topic disclosure, etc.
- Avoid paragraphs consisting of one sentence; you need to supplement and justify each of your thoughts. To do this, you can use the constructions In my opinion, I believe, etc.
- Monitor the style of written work: colloquial expressions like Guess what? or Wish me luck!, but in an essay it is better to stick to a more formal style. It is important not to overdo it with “informality”: all kinds of well, cause and slang expressions are unacceptable.
- Use linking words, they make the text logical and allow you to complement or contrast sentences.
Oral speech
The oral part of the exam is the shortest, it takes only 15 minutes. The graduate needs to complete as many as 4 tasks, for which he can receive a maximum of 20 points. The student submits assignments in front of the computer, his answers are recorded using a headset, and the time countdown is shown on the screen. There is an organizer in the audience who monitors the progress of the exam.
Exercise 1: Popular scientific text is displayed on the screen. In 1.5 minutes you need to prepare and in the next 1.5 minutes read it out loud expressively.
Lead time: no more than 3 minutes.
Maximum points: 1 point.
Example:
Oral speech, task 1
Lead time: about 3 minutes.
Maximum points: 5 points.
Example:
Oral speech, task 2
Task 3: Show 3 photos. You need to choose 1 and describe it according to the plan proposed right there in the task.
Lead time: about 3.5 minutes.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Oral speech, task 3
Task 4: 2 pictures are given. It is necessary to compare them, describe the similarities and differences, and explain why the chosen topic is close to the graduate.
Lead time: about 3.5 minutes.
Maximum points: 7 points.
Example:
Oral speech, task 4
Our tips:
- Take advantage online trainer for the oral part of the exam on the website injaz.ege.edu.ru. It completely simulates the exam, so you will become familiar with the format and understand exactly what you need to do, what time to meet, etc.
- To practice the first part of the exam you need take texts on different topics and learn to read them with the correct expression: speech should have pauses, logical stress, natural intonation. In addition, the graduate must complete it in one and a half minutes, because the score is reduced if the text is not read to the end. However, you can’t rush either, because it’s not the reading speed that is being tested, but the ability to read the text expressively.
- To successfully complete the second task, you need learn to ask questions to various texts. In principle, the task itself is elementary; most errors are associated with the loss of an auxiliary verb or its incorrect agreement with a noun. This problem can be easily solved by repeating question-writing exercises.
- In the third task, the examinee needs to select 1 photo from 3 proposed and describe it. Here's our main advice - read the assignment carefully. The point is that it changes a little every year, so learn to answer according to the wording of 2018. In 2018, graduates will have to describe a photograph to a friend, that is, the monologue should address him. In addition, it is necessary answer all questions in the assignment, for example, if it says where and when the photo was taken, you need to answer both questions - where and when. At the beginning, you must definitely indicate which photo we will be talking about (I’ve chosen photo number...). Don't forget also about the introductory one (Would you like to have a look at my picture? / I'd like to show you a picture from my photo album.) and the final one (That's all for now. / I hope you liked my picture.) phrases that make speech logical.
- In the fourth task you need to do the main focus of the speech is on comparing pictures, and not their description. In this case it is necessary use speech cliches: The first picture depicts... whereas/while the second picture depicts..., The main difference is that..., In comparison to the first picture, this one... etc. More similar speech cliches you learn with our article “Compare and Contrast Phrases”.

Not only schoolchildren in our country are familiar with the concept of the Unified State Exam, but also their parents. Everyone knows that this is a centrally organized holding of a unified state exam on the same day and at the same time for all secondary educational institutions in our state. Such an exam plays the role of both graduation and entrance exams for universities.
Its features are:
- application of tasks of the same type;
- a unified system for assessing examination papers.
The results of the state examination are recorded in the corresponding document - a certificate, or, as it is popularly called, a certificate. From it you can find out how many points the graduate received and in what subjects. Also, anyone can retake the Unified State Exam in subsequent years.
Rules for conducting the Unified State Exam in 2018
For several years now, the official information portal “USE.ru” has been operating, where anyone can familiarize themselves with the following information:
- what is the Unified State Exam;
- what are the rules for its conduct;
- how many subjects are required;
- Is there any news regarding the Unified State Examination across the country and regions?
In addition, the portal contains a lot of useful information both for state exam participants and for applicants to universities.
One of the important points in preparing for the unified state exam is to become familiar with the rules for holding it in 2018, which are highly undesirable to violate. These include the following main points:
- Where and at what time participants take the exams - in centers specially equipped for this; the start of the tests is set for everyone - at 10.00.
- Is it forbidden to leave the audience during the test - you can leave accompanied by a responsible person, and only for a good reason (at this time, the participant’s work is handed over to the observer, who makes an appropriate note on it).
- How to correctly fill out the exam form - all entries are made with a pen with black gel paste (for example, the form provides an example of writing numbers and letters), starting to fill out the answer field from the first cell.
- How to correct mistakes - it is forbidden to paint over the field with a proofreader or erase it with an eraser; there is a special field on the form for corrections.
- Do you need documents to prove the identity of the participant? An identity document is required (usually a passport).
- What you can use during the state exam - rulers, calculators, protractors, reference materials (during tests in mathematics, physics, chemistry, geography, foreign languages).
- Is it possible to retake the state exam if you receive a low result? Since last year, this can be done in compulsory subjects.
If observers or organizers notice violations of the exam rules, the violator will be asked to stop performing tasks and leave. In this case, a corresponding entry is made in the protocol of the state examination and in the participant’s examination form.
Innovations in the Unified State Exam 2018
This year, the Ministry of Education decided to change some rules for passing the unified state exam:
- The number of attempts to retake tests in core subjects (Russian language and mathematics) has been increased - up to 3 times per year, which depends on the desire of the participant.
- Questions that require an unambiguous choice of the correct answer are excluded from KIMs in history, social studies, geography, computer science and ICT (this was already done in 2015 with tasks in two compulsory subjects).
- History is given not in the form of test questions, but in the form of an essay on a relevant topic.
- Universities themselves can increase the passing scores for admission, which should not be lower than the number of points officially established in the region.
Such an update of the rules in 2018, according to psychologists, will reduce the psychological burden on participants in state exams.
Subjects and tasks for the Unified State Exam 2018
School graduates in our country often ask the question: how many compulsory subjects will be included in the Unified State Examination in 2018? The experts answer: two – mathematics and Russian. Physics and a foreign language have not yet been introduced as compulsory this year; for now, they can be chosen at will. In addition to the four listed, chemistry, computer science and ICT, biology, history, geography, social studies, and literature are also offered for passing (these subjects are optional).
Tasks for state tests are called CMM (control measuring materials). Their demo versions for all 11 subjects for 2018 can be found on the official Unified State Exam website http://www.ege.edu.ru/ru/main/demovers/. But you should keep in mind: only demo options are collected here (starting from 2009)! They are for informational purposes only, so that anyone can understand the structure of the tasks (that is, have an idea of the form of the questions, their level of complexity, and the correct formatting of written answers).
Unified State Exam 2018 results and their validity periods
Today, questions regarding the results of unified exams remain relevant for students of secondary educational institutions.
Information about the officially established minimum limits of Unified State Examination scores for admission to universities in our state is provided on the Unified State Examination.ru website http://www.ege.edu.ru/ru/universities-colleges/min_points_for/. Here you can check the preliminary results of the completed tests.
As for the validity period of the certificate with the results of state exams for admission, this period is 4 years (this rule was introduced in 2013). It is not difficult to calculate: the results of the Unified State Exam for 2018 are valid until 2022, for 2019 - until 2023, and for 2020 - until 2024. After this period, the need to pass the unified state exam will again arise. It should be remembered that the validity period also takes into account the month of passing the tests, that is, if you took them in May and June 2018, then in July 2022 the results will be invalid.
There is a special offer on our website: you can consult our corporate lawyer completely free of charge. All you need to do is leave your question in the form below.
The Unified State Exam is a standardized form of final testing for students of secondary schools. A number of such exams, for example, Russian language and mathematics, are compulsory, while from other subjects the student can independently choose to take those that are familiar to him better than others.
Despite the generally standard form of the examination, the details of its organization vary somewhat from year to year. The review of these details is the responsibility of Rosobrnadzor, which analyzes the results of tests conducted in previous years and clarifies the procedure for conducting them next year in order to provide students with exam conditions that allow them to demonstrate the knowledge acquired over the years of study to the maximum. In each specific year, the rules for conducting the Unified State Examination, including the list of examination subjects, the time allotted for writing the exam for each of them, and other parameters, are approved by a special order.
Duration of the Unified State Exam
The total length of time allotted for completing the tasks of the unified state exam in a specific subject is also determined by Rosobrnadzor depending on several factors, for example, the complexity of the exam tasks, the total amount of material that the student needs to know in order to successfully pass the exam, and others. At the same time, the length of time for the Unified State Examination includes only the time spent working on tasks: preliminary instructions, opening envelopes with texts and other preparatory procedures are not taken into account in the total duration of the exam.The time allocated for writing different exams may vary significantly. Thus, in 2014, the shortest period of time, amounting to only three hours, that is, 180 minutes, was allocated for completing Unified State Examination tasks in such subjects as biology, geography, chemistry and foreign languages. Thus, all subjects falling under this category were elective subjects taken by the students.
In 2014, 3.5 hours, that is, 210 minutes, were allocated for completing assignments in one of the compulsory subjects - the Russian language, as well as for writing exams in history and social studies. Moreover, in the category of the longest exams, the duration of which was 235 minutes, one of the compulsory subjects was also mathematics, and along with it - physics, computer science and literature. It is worth noting that previously the time allotted for completing assignments in these subjects was 240 minutes, but in 2012 Rosobrnadzor decided to reduce this period of time by 5 minutes due to sanitary standards and regulations.
Distribution of time for the Unified State Exam
You have been preparing for several months or a whole year for the final stage of school, and now
It's time to show the results of your preparation. You're worried, and that's normal!
The main thing is that excitement does not prevent you from showing all your knowledge.
Take yourself to the exam, in addition to your passport, pens, etc., take chocolate (preferably dark if you like) and water of your choice.
Exams last from 180 minutes to 235 minutes. For eleventh-graders, the brain works productively for about 60 minutes, which is explained by the length of the lessons (45 minutes and another 15-20 minutes from the reserve). Then brain activity declines, and most often it is no longer possible to recover to full working condition. Your brain is accustomed to working for 45-50 minutes, so work at this pace, a break of 5-8 minutes is enough to prevent your brain from “boiling.”
We will divide the entire exam into work-rest stages, the approximate time of one such cycle is 60 minutes.
Based on your strengths, determine how many points you are “going for.” I’ll give an example on the Unified State Exam in mathematics: if you want about 100 points, then you need to solve the entire part B in 40-50 minutes, otherwise you simply won’t have enough time for everything else (one task 19 most often has to be written out for one and a half pages, only the process recordings will take 20-30 minutes of your time).
If you want to get 60-70 points, then it is better to solve the tasks for which you prepared more carefully and attentively.
First cycle (work-rest)
The task is to complete 70-100% of part B. During the “rest”, be sure to drink water and eat chocolate - this wonderful dope will turn on the reserve forces in your brain. Sit down, walk around the recreation area, and don’t rush back to class.
Second cycle
The task is to finish solving part B, solve the tasks of part C for which you were preparing. If there is still time left, it is better to leave early to “rest.”
Third cycle
We remove all the sheets of paper on which we solved Part B and solve again (especially all calculations in a column, etc.), without looking at our first solution, then we check the answers and fill out answer form No. 1. For the remaining time, we check the tasks from C that we solved and write them down in answer form No. 2.
Fourth cycle
If you adhered to the work-rest system, your brain should be tired, but still working. Here the task is to get points at least somewhere: one letter in No. 16 or No. 19. If there is little time left, it is better to write all your thoughts on the form at once; points will not be reduced for dirt.
Another problem you may encounter is stuffy classrooms. Ask (demand) to open a window or door. If the room is poorly ventilated, after 2-3 hours from the start of the exam there will be a “steam room”.
This is approximately how you should solve problems in time if you “go” for 70 – 100 points.

Conclusion: eleven years at school taught your brain to work for 45 minutes with short rest breaks - take advantage of it. Nothing good will happen if you decide to go all out, because when the brain “overheats”, resting for 5-10 minutes will not be enough. Dose your work, manage your time and don’t be afraid to ask to leave; no one has the right to refuse you. Think positively, remember that if there is a difficult task, then there will be an easy one later - all options are balanced, good luck in the exam!
