In the changed format, the exam contains only a test and an oral part (monologue), compared to the reference version, which contained 4 parts: test, text, monologue, and dialogue.
Demska said that during the long exam, which lasted 2 hours, the generation that used to write tests at school, passed the test better and worse than the written part. At the same time, the generation accustomed to writing stories at school failed the tests. However, the score was balanced and the number of those who did not pass the exam reached 5%.
When the exam was reduced to 30 minutes and left the tests and the oral part, the first two weeks of non-compliance reached 20%.
