The exam questions will be tested on a representative sample between February 25 and March 14. The testing will involve over 11,000 students from 164 lyceums and 147 secondary schools, IPN reports, quoting the Ministry of Education.
The testing is aimed at ensuring the quality of the papers that will be given in the 2014 examination session, as regards the structure and content, and at examining the process of implementing the curriculum in preuniversity education institutions. The papers within the testing are not graded.
Between March 25 and April 9, the Ministry of Education and the Quality Assurance Agency will provide all the candidates with model papers in order to familiarize them with the tests’ format and the level of difficulty of the exams.
The graduation exams are taken starting with June.
