On Saturday the NKR minister of education, science and sport Kamo
Atayan held a news conference on the results of the experimental
examination on March 15. The final exam was held in 25 schools, and
the general state exam was held in Stepanakert. The high school
students who will go to university took the general state exam in
Armenian.
The final exam was held at schools. 492 took the exam, including 147
the general state exam.
According to the minister, the maximum score of the general state exam
is 75 points, and that of the final exam is 50. The best score in the
final exam was 47 points (1 student) and the best score in the general
state exam was 68 points (1 student). The lowest score in the final
exam was 3 (1 student), and the lowest score of the general state exam
was 18 (1 student).
The minister said 55 students who took the final exam scored 0-15,
four students who took the general state exam scored 0-25. It means 59
out of 492 students are at risk. The minister thinks the new exam
system needs more contemplation but `the new system of exams will
continue, and this figure may get smaller.’
On the whole, the minister is satisfied with the results of the exam
although he admitts that 10 percent of students may not get a school
certificate.
