Is it necessary Golden medal to the modern schoolchild? What benefits does it provide? How to get this prestigious award? Let's figure it out together.

In this article:

A little about the history of the award

The first gold medal was given to a student in 1828, back in Russian Empire. Since then it has been canceled several times, then brought back again. The last cancellation took place at the end of 2013. The reason is that medals were issued in huge quantities, and not always justifiably. In addition, then they did not provide any advantages during admission. This decision of the Ministry of Education and Science caused a negative reaction from society, so it was revised by the State Duma. In May 2014, the president signed a decree according to which schools began again issuing gold medals to students “for special achievements in learning.”

The gold medal is presented in a ceremonial atmosphere

How to get a gold medal? Conditions for receiving in 2020

The decision to issue a gold medal is made by the school’s teachers’ council and coordinated with the local department of the Ministry of Education. To receive the reward, you must fulfill certain conditions:

• Have final grades “excellent” in all compulsory subjects school curriculum for the 10th and 11th grades (arithmetic average of the sum of annual and semi-annual grades, rounded according to the laws of mathematics).
• Confirm the gold medal with Unified State Examination points: At least 70 points for the Russian language and specialized mathematics(or 5 points for basic mathematics). You must pass it the first time!

And some regions of Russia have established their own awards for excellent study. For example, in Moscow, According to information on the Moscow Mayor’s portal, the medal will be given to someone who fulfills one of the conditions:

> won the All-Russian School Olympiad

> received 100 points for the Unified State Exam in Russian or mathematics,

> scored 220 points in three Unified State Examination subject(this is 73.3 points for each exam)

For a graduate with disabilities there are two more options:

> finish 11th grade with excellent marks and score a total of at least 146 points for the Unified State Examination in Russian and specialized mathematics,

> or 73 in Russian and get a 5 in basic mathematics.

Gold medal - a prestigious award for special academic achievements

What are the benefits of a gold medal?

Of course, a medal will not open doors to everything, but it will still provide you with some bonuses. Upon admission she gives extra points, which are summarized with the results of the Unified State Exam. According to the Moscow Mayor's portal, it will also provide an advantage in admission if you and another applicant without a medal score the same number of points. However, we have not heard of universities making this concession for excellent students.

To confirm that you have a gold medal, you must provide the admissions committee with a certificate.

How many points do universities award for a gold medal?

Upon admission in 2020, you can receive up to 10 extra points inclusive. Each university decides which numbers to set independently. Information about additional points can be obtained on the official website of a particular university. To do this, you need to find the “Individual Achievements” section in the admission rules. Here are the extra points set by some famous people in 2019 educational establishments countries:

Can be installed every year different points. This is not a complete list even for Moscow and St. Petersburg. Check your gold medal scores on our website in the Specialties section.

Each university sets the number of additional points for a gold medal independently.

Legislation does not stand still - the conditions for receiving the medal are becoming more stringent, and its holders receive additional benefits. The main emphasis is on ensuring that medals are awarded deservedly and objectively. Everything is in your hands, go for it!

Anya Sycheva, good afternoon! If your final grades are 5s, then yes

Anya Sycheva, good afternoon! You need to pass specialized mathematics and Russian language at 70+, confirming your 5th grade. The remaining grades will be considered as the arithmetic average of all grades in the subject for grades 10 and 11.

Hello! Is it possible to get a gold medal if you were not declared, but graduated from 11th grade with excellent marks and scored 73 points in Russian language and professional mathematics? Thanks for the answer!

Anya Sycheva, good afternoon! You will need to clarify why you were not declared as a candidate in this case and challenge the result. I draw your attention to the fact that if the certificate has already been issued, it can only be challenged in court.

Portal expert Anna Gagarina, In 10th grade I got 3 B's, but in 11th grade in the first half of the year all 5's. I just wanted to clarify, if I pass Russian language, professional mathematics and social science with 5's, can I get a gold medal? Thank you in advance!

Hello, please help me figure it out: a red certificate will be given only in the case when all semi-annual and annual grades in grades 10-11 are given A's or when the arithmetic average of all semi-annual and annual grades is more than 4.5 points?

Ivan Lozhkin, good afternoon! You need final grades (year grades) for grades 10 and 11. If there are 5s there, then the final certificate will be 5s.

Please tell me. If you don’t get enough points to confirm a gold medal, then a regular certificate is issued, but it will have all “5” in it? Surely the grades will not change if the gold medal is not confirmed?

That is, if you have 4s or 3s for 6th or 8th grade, can you get a gold medal?

Muxa Ckomapob, you can. Only grades for grades 10-11 matter. And there it is not necessary to have all 5, the main thing is that the arithmetic average in the subject is 5. For example, in the first half of the 10th grade I had a 4 in chemistry and biology, for the remaining half of the year there were 5 everywhere and I have a gold medal. (I graduated in 2018, I think nothing has changed)

They must devote a sufficient amount of time to preparing for the unified state exam for free.

Exactly Unified State Examination points(or entrance examinations conducted by the university) in the subjects of the chosen specialty are the basis for admission to any Russian university. What a shame when you are a few points short of your goal!

Individual achievements upon admission will not replace exam results, but can give additional points and become decisive for admission to study at a university on a budgetary basis, so every applicant should know about them in advance.

Ministry of Education and Science Russian Federation gives the right to higher educational institutions to accrue additionally to the results Unified State Examination for applicants during the competition in total amount up to 10 points for his individual achievements in the field of education, sports and social activities.

They give an advantage in case of equality of competition points.

Each university independently determines its policy for taking into account the personal achievements of an applicant, and it is obliged to inform about this in advance.

Therefore, an interested graduate should check with the specific higher education institution to which he plans to apply for information about the number of additional points.

For some achievements, the applicant receives additional points

When applying for training, the following achievements of the applicant are usually taken into account:

1. Sports success: gold, silver or bronze “Ready for Labor and Defense” (GTO) badge, status of European champion, champion or prize-winner of the Olympic, Paralympic and Deaflympic Games.
2. Secondary Certificate general education Honours. Before the introduction of a single state exam a gold medal opened the way for a graduate to all universities in the country. Now the situation has changed. On the other hand, this is good, since the awarding of medals is somewhat subjective, and talented students were not always able to continue their education for free. On this moment a certificate with honors together with a medal “For special achievements in learning” can only give additional points. Many parents and schoolchildren are wondering how to get a gold or silver school medal. Since 2014, the silver medal has not been awarded! To receive the award that many excellent students dream of from the first grade, you need to try hard and not get a single six-month and final four for grades 10 and 11.
3. Secondary professional education diploma with honors. A diploma with honors after graduating from college or technical school gives no less advantages than a school certificate. Usually both documents are equal and give the same number of points.
4. Volunteer activities. You must present a volunteer book or certificate of participation in events. Important: no more than four years should pass from the end of volunteer activity to the end of accepting documents.
5. Success in Olympiads, which are included in the list compiled by the university. You can read more about the benefits of the winners of the Olympiads below.
6. Availability of patents for inventions. The practice of registering patents is not common, and only the most brilliant inventors achieve such success at such a young age.
7. Final essay. The assessment system for the final essay is too lenient, and many do not attach much importance to it, hoping to get a pass. The grade on this paper doesn't tell the admissions committee anything, so they review the essay again and decide on how to award points for it.

There is no need to present the text; all data is scanned and stored in the database in the same way as works.

How many points are awarded?

Usually, large quantity points (5-10) are awarded for a certificate or diploma with honors. But there are exceptions, depending on the specifics educational process. Points for various achievements are summed up, but in the end there should be no more than 10.

What documents are needed

An applicant can count on additional points upon admission only if they present the necessary documents: diplomas, references, certificates.

Excellent graduation from a general education institution must be confirmed not with a medal, but with a certificate with the entry “with honors.”

Education in Russia has undergone significant changes recently.

More recently, all graduates took exams both at the school and at the institute.

Since 2001, the process of implementation into the system began Russian education unified state exam, which still causes a lot of criticism.

The Unified State Exam has now become an integral part of the life of an eleventh-grader in our country, so it is difficult to imagine entering a university without passing it.

But there are exceptions:

1. Foreign citizens. Instead of the Unified State Exam, which is mandatory for all 11th grade graduates Russian schools, foreigners take entrance tests organized by the university. I can't say it's better this way. Still, it is easier to prepare for the Unified State Exam, since all blocks of tasks are publicly available, and a prepared student will see practically nothing new in the KIMs.
2. People with disabilities. They also have the right to enroll on the basis entrance exams according to the quota established by the state.
3. Transfer students from other universities also have the right to enroll without the Unified State Exam, but this depends on the specific institution.
4. Applicants wishing to obtain a second higher education. Unfortunately, a second higher education in the Russian Federation is not free if a citizen has already received a complete non-military education. The exception is bachelors who can continue their studies in a master's program.
5. Winners and prize-winners of All-Russian level Olympiads or Olympiads of a specific university.

The latter option is very attractive to talented schoolchildren. Particularly gifted ones have the right to enter without competition or be equated with applicants who scored 100 points on the Unified State Exam in the subject of the Olympiad.

Many universities hold their own Olympiads

This capability is available to:

• winners and prize-winners of the final stage of the All-Russian Olympiad for schoolchildren;
• members of the national teams of the Russian Federation and Ukraine who participated in international Olympiads;
• winners and prize-winners of the fourth All-Ukrainian student Olympiad.

These achievements are taken into account in any higher educational institution in the country. Also, some universities have the right to organize their own Olympiads and competitions.

Which Olympiads should I take part in to achieve success?

Today there are so many Olympiads that a curious student does not know where to show himself and wonders which one will be more significant in his portfolio.

At first, it is difficult to determine which event will be more useful in the future.

So which Olympiads are best to participate in?

There are three types of intellectual competitions:

1. All-Russian Olympiad for schoolchildren. Almost every excellent student is familiar with it. The organizer of the VOSH is the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, which allows it to be the most prestigious in our country. The VOSH is held in four stages, a victory or a medal in the last one will, perhaps, be the beginning of the young genius’s ascent to the top of the professional Olympus. In addition to benefits, the student is guaranteed to receive invaluable experience and unforgettable participation in the All-Russian stage, as well as the opportunity to visit other major cities of their country.
2. Olympiads held by universities. There are many of them. Some are confirmed by the Ministry of Education and Science and are included in the “List of Olympiads for schoolchildren”. In 2017-2018 academic year there are 97 of them. Full list can be viewed here: http://publication.pravo.gov.ru/Document/View/0001201709260041?index=94&rangeSize=1
   Winning or winning a prize in the Olympiads included in this list provides benefits for admission not only to the organizer’s university.
3. Olympiads of various charitable foundations and organizations. They do not help with admissions, since their focus is on identifying and motivating gifted children. The winner can receive a cash prize or other valuable prize, gain experience, develop their skills and believe in themselves.

Participation in any intellectual event is extremely useful for an emerging specialist. The main thing is that he does not lose faith in himself after failures. It is more difficult to win the last stage of the VOS than in other Olympiads, but the latter deserve no less attention.

In addition to the undeniable benefits of participation, success in in this direction will help the student to continue his education on a budget basis with a guarantee.

Just keep in mind that you need to confirm your victory by scoring at least 75 points in the relevant subject on the Unified State Examination. But this is unlikely to be a big problem for someone who has coped with a more difficult task.

Let's summarize. There is no need to skimp on preparing for the Unified State Exam if you want to get in without any problems. Successfully passing this test is not an impossible task: the prototypes of the tasks are known in advance, and you can always prepare for them.

And individual achievements can determine the outcome in your favor at the decisive moment!

In this video you will learn about the individual achievements of schoolchildren:

Competition points.

The sum of Unified State Exam points and individual achievements are called Competition Points.

Individual achievements.

If you have a Certificate with Honors, this will earn you 3 points. The final essay can be scored from 0 to 10 points. The maximum number of points for sporting achievements is 5. If you are a winner of the Olympics, creative and intellectual competitions– up to 4 points. Moreover, each university independently determines the rules for awarding additional points.

Sports achivments.

If you are an Olympic, Paralympic or Deaflympic champion or medalist, you can receive 5 points. If you are a world or European champion, you can get 4 points. Candidate for Master of Sports - 2 points, Master of Sports - 3 points. Other sports categories will not add points to you. If your sporting achievements are somewhat more modest, then you will receive 1 point for the gold TRP badge. By the way, if your ID is not ready yet, you can take an extract from the Ministry of Sports, it will be counted along with the official ID. And you also need to know that points will be counted only for one type sporting achievements, regardless of their number.

Olympics, creative and intellectual competitions.

If you are a winner of Olympiads and other competitions, feel free to include them in your achievements. They will be able to add up to 4 points to you. But you need to know that some of them will not bring you points. You can find detailed information on the website of the Ministry of Education and Science. And you also need to know that victories in Olympiads are taken into account only in graduating classes, and their results are valid for one year. Points are awarded for the result of one Olympiad, even if you are the winner of several, but the result that brings maximum amount points.

Final essay.

The essay is assessed according to four criteria:

1. Relevance to the topic. If you clearly hit the topic and were able to reveal it in your content, then you can get up to 3 points.
2. Argumentation. The historical and literary context is taken into account here. You should first of all rely in your essay on historical facts and thoughts of the author, heroes literary work, and not just on your own conclusions. As a result, you can earn up to 4 points.
3. Structure . The essay must be flawlessly structured. And this can earn you up to 3 points.
4. Literacy and quality of speech. This is the most insidious point, as it can take up to 6 points from you (penalty points).

If you are unsure of your essay, this should not be a barrier to citing it. After all, even a few points can bring you victory in admission to budget places.

When choosing a university for admission, applicants must take into account not only their desires, but also objective factors, for example, the passing grade.

Additional points for admission to university

Each applicant can earn up to 10 bonus points in total. You can get them in several ways.

Additional points for the Unified State Exam upon admission: presence of a medal

In most government Russian universities diligent study at school is additionally rewarded upon admission. This applies to both those who received “gold” and those who earned “silver”. Medal holders receive additional points (from 1 to 10), as well as an advantage over those who enter with the same number of points: in this situation, the medalist has priority for admission.

Please note that the administration of each university independently sets the number of points for a particular achievement. For example, in Moscow, the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics “values” a gold medal at 10 points, and the National Research University Higher School of Economics at 3.

Extra points for Olympiads

Participation in Olympiads is encouraged in different ways:

• cash prizes;
• 100 points for the Unified State Exam in a core subject;
• admission without competition;
• bonus points upon admission.

1. All-Russian Olympiad.
2. Competitions from the Russian Council of School Olympiads and the Russian Union of Rectors.

Extra points for sporting achievements

Another current way to get additional points when entering a university in 2019 is to provide proof of your sports success.

Of course, this only applies to participation in prestigious competitions:

• Olympic Games;
• Paralympics;
• Deaflympics;

Having a volunteer book indicating which projects the applicant has participated in can bring a few extra points to the Unified State Exam upon admission in 2019. But please note that not all universities encourage volunteering in this way.

The maximum number of additional points upon admission is 10, so if this is how much the essay was assessed, then the golden TRP badge, for example, will not bring anything. Therefore, do not chase different directions: sports, Olympics, volunteering. Focus on one thing at a time.

At some universities and institutes, bonus points can be earned by completing preparatory department. Another way of “rewarding” subcourses is a discount on contract education.

Everything will depend on the exam grade and the average score of the certificate.

But admission is only the first stage in a difficult student life. You can make it easier if you enlist the support of like-minded people. For example, student service experts who will help you cope with any educational problem.
