The main part of the Unified State Exam subjects can be taken in the period from May 29 to June 19. Early completion of the Unified State Examination will take place from March 23 to April 7. During the same period, you can take exams in subjects that you completed earlier.
For persons re-admitted this year to take exams in the relevant academic subjects, and graduates of previous years, additional deadlines for passing the Unified State Exam are provided - April 10-14, June 20-29, July 1 and September 16.
As last year, the Unified State Examination in all subjects begins at 10.00 local time.
The duration of the Unified State Examination in individual subjects has been preserved. So, in profile-level mathematics, physics, literature, computer science and information and communication technologies (ICT), social studies, history is 3 hours 55 minutes (235 minutes), in Russian language, chemistry, biology - 3 hours 30 minutes (210 minutes) , in basic level mathematics, geography, foreign languages (English, French, German, Spanish) (except for the "Speaking" section) - 3 hours (180 minutes), in foreign languages (English, French, German, Spanish) ("Speaking" section ") - 15 minutes.
The list of teaching aids used during the exam remains the same. On the Unified State Examination in mathematics it is allowed to use a ruler; in physics - a ruler and a non-programmable calculator; in chemistry - non-programmable calculator; in geography - a ruler, a protractor, a non-programmable calculator.
May 29, 2017 – an official assessment is carried out in literature or geography to choose from;

Unified State Exam 2017 schedule
Early stage
Main stage
Procedure for taking the exam
In 2017, school graduates will traditionally take the Unified State Exam in two waves - early and main. The early stage will take place from March 23 to April 7, the main stage - from May 29 to June 19. At the early stage, graduates of evening schools, young people called up for military service, athletes of national teams, as well as high school students who cannot take the exams at the main stage for health reasons or due to moving to another country have the right to take the exam.
The most popular elective subject among schoolchildren, social studies, will be held on a special day. This exam will not overlap with other Unified State Exams so that all willing graduates can take it on the main day.
Retakes
Graduates who fail exams in compulsory subjects can retake them in the fall.
On September 5, the Unified State Exam will be held in the Russian language, and on September 8 - in basic mathematics, which are eligible to take:
*who graduated from school this year, but “failed” both compulsory exams (Russian language and mathematics) during the summer exams;
*who graduated from school this year, but received a bad mark in one of the required exams (Russian language or mathematics) and were unable to retake the subject on the reserve day;
*who graduated from school this year, but for some reason did not take exams at all in the summer.
Graduates who have not passed the minimum threshold in elective subjects have the right to retake the exam only the next year.
Minimum grades of three in subjects
Math 27
Russian language 36
biology 36
geography 37
foreign language 22
story 32
social studies 42
literature 32
computer science and ICT 40
Changes by subject
Unified State Exam in Biology
Starting this year, the Unified State Exam in Biology will have fewer tasks, their number reduced from 40 to 28. At the same time, schoolchildren will have more time to write work, the duration of the exam will increase from 180 to 210 minutes. Tasks with a choice of one answer are excluded from the options. Part 1 includes new types of tasks that differ significantly in the types of actions. Graduates will have to fill in the missing elements of a diagram or table, find the correct symbols in the figure, and complete tasks for analyzing and synthesizing information, including those presented in the form of graphs, diagrams and tables with statistical data. Another change is the reduction of the maximum primary score from 61 in 2016 to 59 in 2017.
Unified State Exam in Chemistry
In the chemistry options, the structure of Part 1 has been fundamentally changed: firstly, tasks with a choice of one answer have been eliminated, and secondly, the questions are grouped into separate thematic blocks, each of which contains tasks of both basic and advanced levels of complexity. In general, there will be fewer tasks in the work - schoolchildren will have to complete 34 tasks (instead of 40 in 2016). The maximum primary result for the exam will be 60 points, last year it was 64 points. And one more innovation in chemistry: in tasks of a basic level of complexity, which test the assimilation of knowledge about the genetic connection of inorganic and organic substances (No. 9 and No. 17), the grading scale has been changed. Now you can get not one, but two points for correct answers.
Unified State Exam in Physics
In physics, the structure of part 1 of the examination paper was changed, part 2 was left unchanged. From the first part, tasks with a choice of one correct answer were excluded and tasks with a short answer were added.
EGE in the future
Unified State Exam in Chinese
Since the number of Russian schoolchildren studying Chinese in grades 8-11 already exceeds 5 thousand, it is quite possible that in the next two to three years the Unified State Exam in this subject will become another elective exam along with English, French, German and Spanish . Rosobrnadzor has created a working group that is studying the experience of holding Chinese language exams in China and other countries. MGIMO specialists are also working on the creation of examination materials in Chinese. In October 2015, the first testing of the Unified State Exam in Chinese was carried out. About three thousand schoolchildren from 16 regions of Russia took part in it. The next large-scale testing of the Unified State Exam and State Examination models in the Chinese language is planned for the fall of 2017.
Oral part in the Unified State Exam in Russian
The Ministry of Education and Science plans to introduce an oral part in the Unified State Examination in the Russian language in the coming years. It is expected that it will be tested in exams in 9th grade this academic year, and will appear in the Unified State Examination in two years. When the technology is developed, it can be used in exams in other humanities subjects - history, literature, social studies.
New Unified State Exam in Literature
In 2016, the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements developed an updated model of the Unified State Examination in literature. It was tested in 13 regions of the Russian Federation in 60 educational organizations and presented for public discussion. Short answer tasks were excluded from the exam, the number of elective tasks was increased, comparative tasks were simplified, the assessment criteria were significantly changed and the requirements for the length of the essay were increased. Now the exam will consist of creative tasks that will require extensive reflection, and there will be more topics for essays. The new model is expected to be introduced in 2018; graduates of 2017 will take this Unified State Exam in the usual format.
Unified State Examination in computer science
For several years now there has been talk that in the near future, schoolchildren will take computer science courses on a computer. Experts assess this prospect as real, but not close. Currently, the solution to the problem is hampered by the poor technical equipment of schools in remote regions of the country and SanPiNs, which prohibit schoolchildren from spending four hours at a time at the computer. Therefore, the issue of “computerization” of computer science may not worry graduates of the coming year.
Based on materials from the Rosobrnadzor portal and https://www.ucheba.ru
Vera PECHORINAMany of next year’s graduates are beginning to ask questions about what changes may occur in the Unified State Examination, what subjects are and, of course, what date is the Unified State Examination in 2017?. Today's tenth graders are already preparing with all their might for the most important exam of their school life.
Conscientious students take hold of their textbooks more tightly, go to tutors and preparatory courses, voraciously read and re-read notes on preparation for the Unified State Exam in order to successfully pass it and enter a good university.
Parents of future graduates are seriously concerned about the upcoming testing: having just passed the State Examination Test, the children will once again plunge into an atmosphere of constant stress.
And, along with young people, caring mothers and fathers scour the endless “web” of the Internet, trying to find both reliable information and more or less true rumors regarding the Unified State Exam 2017.
What date is the Unified State Exam in 2017?
Already now we can name with absolute certainty the exact dates of the event, and we will also remember the dates for past periods.

Based on the table, certain conclusions can be drawn:
- in 2017, early period for passing the Unified State Exam will probably begin on the twentieth of March, with the first reserve days for exams in mid-April;
- main period for passing the Unified State Exam, most likely, will begin at the end of the twentieth of May, with the beginning of the reserve days for passing the Unified State Exam in the twentieth of June.
What changes are planned for the Unified State Exam 2017
The Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation is going to remove the test part from the Unified State Exam. Previously, tests gave the student, who was not entirely sure of the correct answer, several options to choose from. That is, there was a danger of “blind” testing, when students put answer options at random, relying on intuition.
This testing system, of course, played into the hands of careless graduates who failed to properly prepare for the Unified State Exam. It is expected that from 2017 the survey form will completely return (as it was before 2009).
Also, the head of RAO Lyudmila Verbitskaya announced the real possibility of introducing the oral part into the 2017 Unified State Exam. She recalled that the oral part had already been added to the foreign language exam and clarified that the Russian language exam needed a more advanced development of the oral exam.
In addition to the above innovations, which the Russian Academy of Education has “pleased” us with, it is also planned to introduce a system of assessment for essays. Previously, eleventh graders received a pass/fail for their final presentation.
Moreover, each student will have the opportunity to retake an essay if they receive an unsatisfactory grade. However, this can only be done once, otherwise the student will have to wait a whole year to pass all the exams.
For several years in a row, school graduates have taken a mandatory exam, which can show the real level of their knowledge and help them enter the desired university. Unified State Examination Schedule 2017 has changed somewhat.
According to the government decision, in 2017, children will begin taking the Unified State Exam in February. If they can dial , then the test will end. If the passing grade is not “taken,” then students will face tests in April.
In order to properly prepare for this important moment and receive the desired certificates, many future graduates are already looking for the necessary literature, hiring tutors, and looking for video lessons on the Internet. In many schools, just a few days before the Unified State Exam, preparatory classes begin to slightly reduce the level of tension among students and instill in them hope that passing the exam with a high score is quite possible.
It is worth noting that only at the beginning of the academic year will it be possible to get acquainted with the full exam schedule for 2017. But at the same time, anyone can personally draw up a preliminary plan for passing exam papers, starting from the dates of last year.
In principle, one or two days of difference does not play a special role, but the student will be able to accurately plan his free time and allocate several hours for preparation.
Unified State Examination dates
Early examination
If you want to take the exams ahead of schedule and see what you are capable of even before the main part of the Unified State Exam begins, then you can take the papers in March. This approach allows students to significantly increase their certificate scores and increase their chances of entering a prestigious university.
If during the test your scores seemed unsatisfactory, then during the main part of the exam you can radically change the picture. So, the schedule for the early Unified State Examination is as follows.
Please note that in 2016, the period from April 15 to April 23 was designated as a reserve period. In 2017 these will be the days:
- April 10 (Mon) reserve - geography, chemistry, computer science and ICT, foreign languages (oral), history;
- April 12 (Wed) reserve - foreign languages, literature, physics, social studies, biology;
- April 14 (Fri) reserve - Russian language, mathematics B, P.
Main period
Reserve period
Reserve exam dates are intended for those students who did not manage to get into the main period for valid reasons. It should be remembered that there are only a few reasons that exempt you from taking the exam in the main period. First of all, this is poor health, documented (certificate from a doctor).
In addition, the Unified State Examination requires a retake. As a rule, it takes place in September of the new academic year.
In the same year they introduced for the first time "autumn" days for passing the Unified State Exam and State Examination:
- September 5 (Tue) – Russian language
- September 8 (Fri) – mathematics B
- September 16 (Sat) reserve - mathematics B, Russian language
Changes in the Unified State Examination
Already in 2016, all students felt the burden of the changes that took place in the Unified State Examination system. Officials continue to fundamentally change the way this work is carried out so that the process of testing knowledge is more accurate and transparent. The most important innovations are:
- The list of required subjects has been increased to three. Let us recall that until 2016, graduates took only two subjects (Russian and mathematics). Now history will be one of the compulsory subjects. It will have to be taken not only in test form, where it is possible to put answers at random, but also orally. In addition, a foreign language may be a presumable compulsory subject. However, while officials are skeptical about this decision and intend to introduce this test closer to 2020.
- In total, at the Unified State Exam 2017 you will need to pass at least 4 subjects. Depending on which university the future applicant enters, the names of these subjects may change.
- It is planned to test knowledge in the subject “Informatics” on computers. By 2017, the Ministry of Education must prepare appropriate programs for this.
- Points earned on the Unified State Exam influence the final certificate of the graduate.
- Mathematics will be taken in two standards: basic and specialized.
Don’t forget that you shouldn’t delay preparing for exams. During the school year, it is more difficult to find a few hours to devote to the Unified State Exam. Therefore, future graduates should become familiar with possible exam questions already in the summer. Considering that all tests can be easily found on the Internet, this task becomes quite feasible.
Every schoolchild in our country is required to take unified state exams, which demonstrate the level of knowledge acquired at school and become the basis for the further development of education - admission to a university. Such an important event requires a long preparation, and therefore every student strives to find out the schedule of USE exams 2017 in advance.
Features of the Unified State Exam 2017
Until 2017, tests were the main form of knowledge testing. In 2016, the form of test questions was considered obsolete, because even without knowing the correct answer, the student had the opportunity to guess it from the options provided. Since 2017, it has been decided to return to the survey form of exams, that is, most subjects will be taken as it was customary in the “noughties” - in the period before 2009. In addition, the student can expect a whole series of innovations. Let's tell you more about them.
Firstly, a third is added to the two mandatory exams - it should be history. True, the name of the third subject has not yet been firmly established, but at the beginning of the school year this information will already be made public. That is, you will have to take the Russian language, mathematics and, most likely, history - more precisely, it will be known by the date of the Unified State Exam 2017.
Secondly, the RAO (Russian Academy of Education) insists on introducing a point scale for grading essays. Until today, essays were assessed according to only two criteria: pass or fail. This, according to representatives of the Russian Academy of Education, negatively affects the knowledge of students and gives advantages to those students who are simply too lazy to study literature - it is much easier to get a “pass” in an essay than an “A”.
Thirdly, the results of the Unified State Exam will also be influenced by the grades in the certificate. The higher the scores for school subjects, the higher the final grade for the state exam.
Fourthly, if the points scored do not reach the threshold level, students will be given the opportunity to retake the Unified State Exam twice more. It will also be possible to take a retake if the student for some reason is not satisfied with the points he scored.
So, at the Unified State Exam, schoolchildren will have to take one of their choice. They can be taken several times until the student finds the result satisfactory.
Dates for the Unified State Examination in 2017
The Unified State Exam schedule in 2017 consists of two parts - early and main exams.
Early period for passing the Unified State Examination
- Geography, Computer Science and ICT
- Russian language / compulsory subject
- history, chemistry
- mathematics / compulsory subject
- Geography, literature

Starting next week, reserve time begins for all exams included in the Unified State Examination list.
- reserve: geography, chemistry, computer science and ICT, foreign languages (oral), history
- reserve: foreign languages, literature, physics, social studies, biology
- reserve: Russian language, mathematics B, P
- Foreign language, history, social studies (reserve)
- Foreign language (oral), geography, physics, biology (reserve).
However, not every student is in a hurry to take advantage of the right to take the exam early. Therefore, most students will be interested in the second section of the 2017 Unified State Exam schedule - the main period.
- Geography, Computer Science and ICT
- mathematics B
- mathematics P
- social science
- physics, literature
- Russian language
- foreign languages, biology

- reserve: biology, history foreign languages
- reserve: foreign languages
- reserve: mathematics B, mathematics P
- reserve: Russian language
- reserve: for all subjects
Additional period (September)
Retaking the Unified State Examinations in 2017
In addition to the main and reserve days, the Unified State Examination process itself also provides for a third period - a retake. The right to retake is granted to every student - both those who did not reach the minimum threshold and those who simply want to improve their own results and score more points. True, to improve your own level you will need remarkable confidence in your own strengths and knowledge.
The Unified State Exam retake usually takes place in September, most often in the first half of the month. However, the schedule for a possible retake will be known only by August 2017.
Extra points
Additional points may be added for exam scores. So, 10 points can be added to:
- for a certificate with only A's;
- for prizes won at Olympiads in school subjects;
- for achievements in sports.
Considering the possible addition of points, it is worth thinking about taking the Unified State Exam in advance: taking part in olympiads and competitions in all subjects, not just specialized ones; increase your level of knowledge, striving for excellent grades; participate in the sports life of the school.
