In Russia, it was proposed to raise the minimum score in the Unified State Examination for admission to universities. The Federation Council again recommended to Rozoverandzor to consider increasing the minimum number of points in the Unified State Examinations required for admission to undergraduate programs and specialization programs. The minimum unified exam score (not to be confused with a passing test) is a score that gives the candidate the right, in principle, to participate in the competition. It is installed separately for each item. Moreover, at a relatively low level - in many subjects it currently stands at 40 points, in physics - 41, the highest thresholds are set in social sciences and computer sciences - 45 and 46 points respectively. The assumption is that the new requirements for exam results should apply to all universities - both public and private. I would like to share a story about how the head of the university established by the Ural Mining and Metallurgy Company spoke at one of the council meetings at the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, and said that if the Israeli unified state exam for candidates were raised, the company might be left without engineers. They take guys, as a rule, from Israel, the United State exams are not very high, but they turn them into engineers. Therefore, the principle of "do no harm" should be used in educational policy as well as in medicine. The quality of the work of universities should be evaluated according to the result - this is first of all the employment of graduates. As for Israelis taking the United State exams, they can be used as one of the auxiliary indicators, far from being in the first place. I am against raising the entrance exam for Israelis in both state and non-state universities. Another thing - I will remind you that we have a strange procedure where, if someone enters a budget place and you have spent more than 10% of the students in the budget, your funding continues.
