We study in the process of online passing the exam in history
Success on USE in history 2018 depends on how hard you train. Fortunately, the portal site has created all the necessary conditions for this.
You can not only pass many test options USE in history, but also look through long-forgotten school textbooks. In addition, the database of educational materials contains all the data necessary for preparation, as well as solution books, in which typical tasks are collected.
What will the exam in history be like in 2016
What parts were removed compared to 2015
Is it worth it to panic and fear?
What is the main thing in preparing for the exam in history 2016?
All these questions are answered in the video above. Hello everyone. So, soon the 2015/2016 academic year will come and the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements (FIPI) has already published fresh test materials for the USE in 2016 on its website. This post is about history.
The first thing that catches your eye: in the USE history test in 2016, the former part A was completely removed from the first part of the USE test. It contained the easiest tasks with one answer, usually four. The elimination of these assignments, on the one hand, significantly reduced the number of assignments itself: now there are 25 instead of 40.On the other hand, the USE history test itself is more complicated. Not to say that much, but complicated.
Here is a table of correspondence between the tasks of the KIM USE 2016 in history and:
As you can see from the table, only 5 tasks (6,7,8,10 and 25) fairly new (marked in red). The rest of the tasks are taken from the 2015 USE test. By that, I mean the type of assignment. The most radical change occurred in task 6. Its introduction will complicate the test by the fact that the graduate will have to navigate similar tasks from different historical eras.
Task 25 (40) has also been radically revised. Whereas earlier a graduate was required to characterize a historical person according to an unclear plan, now it is required to write a historical essay on a certain period of national history.
That is, now it is not at all necessary to know the biography of W. Churchill and T. Roosevelt in order to write a historical essay. Here the principle is simple: what you don’t know - don’t write 🙂 However, knowing these characters, and demonstrating this knowledge to experts, will help the graduate to get the highest score.
The maximum primary score is now 53 primary scores and 100 test ones. For a historical essay, a graduate can now receive as many as 11 primary points. And the criteria in it have been increased to 7. We will talk more about these tasks in future videos and posts. Subscribe to project news !
In general, the test has become more difficult and the graduate will have to know not only events from history and historical figures, but also terms, cause-and-effect relationships and much, much more.
You can seriously practice solving tests, and learn the nuances of solving them, by going through our:
Many will ask: are they relevant for preparing for the exam in history in 2016. Yes, of course they are. After all, my video courses are aimed at forming the graduate's systemic knowledge of the discipline and practicing the skill of solving tests of any complexity.
In addition, everyone who bought from me full course on history, like other courses, have the right to consult with me on any questions about preparing for the exam. Therefore, everyone who purchased my courses and my services in 2015/2016 academic year no doubt they will pass the USE in history 2016 by 100 points. As it was in the 2014/2015 academic year.

Read the passage from the history source and briefly answer questions 20-22. The answers assume the use of information from the source, as well as the application of historical knowledge at the rate of history of the corresponding period.
I.V. Stalin on Red Square
"Comrades, Red Army men and Red Navy men, commanders and political workers, workers and women workers, collective farmers and collective farmers, workers of intelligent labor, brothers and sisters in the rear of our enemy, temporarily under the yoke of German robbers, our glorious partisans and partisans, destroying the rear of the German invaders!
On behalf of the Soviet government and our Bolshevik Party, I greet you and congratulate you on the 24th anniversary of the Great October Socialist Revolution.
Comrades! In difficult conditions today we have to celebrate the 24th anniversary of the October Revolution. The treacherous attack of German bandits and the war imposed on us created a threat to our country. We temporarily lost a number of regions, the enemy found himself at the gates of Leningrad and Moscow. The enemy hoped that after the first blow our army would be scattered, our country would be brought to its knees. But the enemy was cruelly miscalculated. Despite temporary setbacks, our army and our fleet heroically repulse enemy attacks along the entire front, inflicting heavy damage on him, and our country, our entire country, has organized itself into a single battle camp in order to carry out the defeat together with our army and our fleet. German invaders.
There were days when our country was in an even more difficult situation. Remember 1918, when we celebrated the first anniversary of the October Revolution. Three-quarters of our country were then in the hands of foreign interventionists. Ukraine, the Caucasus, Central Asia, the Urals, Siberia, the Far East were temporarily lost by us. We didn’t have allies, we didn’t have the Red Army — we had just begun to create it — there was not enough bread, not enough weapons, not enough uniforms. 14 states then pressed upon our country. But we did not lose heart, did not lose heart. In the flames of war, we then organized the Red Army and turned our country into a military camp. The spirit of the great Lenin then inspired us to go to war against the interventionists. And what? We defeated the invaders, reclaimed all the lost territories and achieved victory.
Now the situation in our country is much better than 23 years ago. Our country is many times richer in industry, food, and raw materials than it was 23 years ago. We now have allies who are holding together with us a united front against the German invaders. We now have the sympathy and support of all the peoples of Europe who have fallen under the yoke of Hitler's tyranny. We now have a wonderful army and a wonderful fleet, defending the freedom and independence of our Motherland. We do not have a serious shortage either in food, or in weapons or in uniforms. Our entire country, all the peoples of our country are supporting our army, our fleet, helping them to defeat the invasive hordes of German fascists. Our human reserves are inexhaustible. The spirit of the great Lenin and his victorious banner inspire us now to Patriotic War just like 23 years ago.
Can there be any doubt that we can and must defeat the German invaders?
The enemy is not as strong as some frightened intellectuals portray him. The devil is not so terrible as he is painted. Who can deny that our Red Army has more than once put the vaunted German troops into panic flight? Judging not by the boastful statements of the German propagandists, but by the actual position of Germany, it will not be difficult to understand that the German fascist invaders are facing a catastrophe. Hunger and impoverishment reign in Germany now, in 4 months of war Germany has lost 4 and a half million soldiers, Germany is bleeding, its manpower reserves are drying up, the spirit of indignation is taking possession not only of the peoples of Europe, who fell under the yoke of the German invaders, but also the German people themselves does not see the end of the war. The German invaders are straining their last strength. There is no doubt that Germany cannot withstand such tension for long. A few more months, another six months, maybe a year, and Hitlerite Germany should burst under the weight of its crimes.
Comrades, Red Army men and Red Navy men, commanders and political workers, partisans and partisans! The whole world looks at you as a force capable of destroying the plundering hordes of German invaders. The enslaved peoples of Europe, who have fallen under the yoke of the German invaders, look at you as their liberators. The great mission of liberation has fallen to your lot. Be worthy of this mission! The war you are waging is a war of liberation, a just war. Let the courageous image of our great ancestors - Alexander Nevsky, Dimitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin, Dimitri Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov, Mikhail Kutuzov - inspire you in this war! Let the victorious banner of the great Lenin overshadow you! "
