“Is Russian State Exam in English similar to
international language exams or not?”
Made bypupil of 9th A FormTchirkina VictoriaTeacher:Derzhurina Elena Nikolaevna
Opinions about examinations
“Well, people who think exams are not necessary are not any smarter or more stupid than people who think exams are
necessary when they’re given to take one”.
“To me exams are like girl friends:
Too many questions.Difficult to understand.
More explanation is needed.Result is always failed.
So it is a waste of time for me”.
My hypothesis:
“ALL LANGUAGE EXAMS ARE VERY SIMILAR AND HAVE ONE
STRUCTURE.”

Conclusion• I have absolutely proved my hypothesis. I have found out that
each exam is divided into the following parts: listening, reading, use of English, writing, and speaking. It’s really possible to
create a program how to prepare for international exams. That’s why I consider my research work to be very useful and helpful. I
have studied the following exams: the Russian State Exam, TOEFL, IELTS and Cambridge ESOL tests. From my point of
view, the materials from my research work can be used by teachers and pupils for exams’ preparation.
