Yampolskaya proposed a unified format for accounting for Olympiads when entering universities

MOSCOW, October 1 - RIA Novosti. Adviser to the President of the Russian Federation Elena Yampolskaya proposed introducing a unified format for recording school Olympiads when entering Russian universities.

Earlier, the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation approved the list of Olympiads for schoolchildren for the 2026/27 academic year. According to the document, the list includes 60 Olympiads of various profiles, each Olympiad is assigned a level: I, II or III. The first level Olympiads are the most difficult, their tasks require deep knowledge and creative thinking.

“It is further necessary to provide some kind of unified format for taking into account the results of these Olympiads upon admission. Maybe this is a certain number of additional points, so that these events do not replace the Unified State Examination,” she told reporters.

According to her, a solution will definitely be found. The ultimate goal is to ensure that talented children are not left out of further education.
