Ruben Topchyan, head of calculation center at the Republican Acceptance
Committee (RAC), said 8 percent absenteeism is observed among the
applicants who registered for the examinations. He said this is a
normal indicator and is even lower than last year.
Topchyan summed up the results of the first 20 days of examinations
at the higher educational establishment together with Sasun Melikyan,
RAC responsible secretary. They said there is a tendency to apply
more to social sciences instead of exact sciences. Besides, students
apply to those departments where the tuition fee is low.
No student has got 19 or 20 from the History of Armenia as of
today. Higher scores are observed from the Armenian language and
English language. No student has also received 20 from Chemistry,
General History, French (oral), Italian (oral and written), Geography,
Russian (oral).
Several cases of plagiarism were reported. Under such cases, the
examination is stopped and the applicant receives the lowest possible
score – 0. /Panorama.am/
