The examination version discussed in this publication was offered to graduates at the early stage of the Unified State Exam in History on March 20, 2017.
The following can be said about the contents of the KIM:
In tasks 1-2 the content is normal, without surprises, except for the mention of Ipatiev Chronicle. As a rule, such specification does not happen.
In task 3, in my opinion, terms associated with the 18th century began to appear very often. Maybe this is a subjective view, but somehow it seems that other periods are undervalued in this regard.
The term in the fourth, on the contrary, is rather non-trivial. It is worth remembering the numerous purchases, rank and file and other tiuns with lights. But not for long, otherwise you’ll dream about it at night with some governor charging you a vira :)
5-7 tasks are quite normal, nothing special.
In the 8th question about the intelligence officer, perhaps, I was surprised. An unusual character for assignments, although it seems that R. Sorge has already come across it somewhere.
In the 9th there is nothing complicated, but in the 10th I would carefully read the text. It’s not a difficult question, but it seems that the compiler tried very hard to disguise the name of the Soviet government when formulating the question. The ears, however, still stick out :)
The 11th task has no surprises, but the 12th makes you think for the second time about what a specialist in the history of Russia before the 19th century might have written.
Tasks 13-16 on the Great Patriotic War - alas, this is one of the worst options with a map, may all fans of this period forgive me. The only things that could be worse are the events of the Civil/Cold War or the economy.
The 17th is normal in culture, especially if you have watched, are watching or will watch collections of illustrations of the cat Stepan :)
You can download the collection of illustrations at
The 18th will not be difficult, like any image of a similar now popular format (stamps, coins), if you carefully consider and read the proposed options. The 19th task is also not difficult, all the personalities are more than well-known.
As for the tasks of the second part, 20-21 will not cause difficulties, but 22 is worth studying carefully and not rushing to the answer, which, at the same time, is literally on the surface.
Task 23 once again proves that the decisions of the main congresses of the Bolshevik Party need to be known (see)
The 24th task on arguments creates a persistent deja vu that there is simply an indecent amount of Alexander III in the tasks. So, for example, in the last Statgrad training session from April (2017) there was an assignment about his internal politics.
The choice of periods for writing was disappointing. The first and last, moreover, are cross-temporal, which in itself makes them complex. Part of the reign of Nicholas II in the second version also does not improve the picture.
In general, the good thing here is that no one will come across this option.

Structure of KIM Unified State Exam 2017 in history
Each version of the examination paper consists of two parts and includes 25 tasks that differ in form and level of difficulty.
Part 1 contains 19 short answer questions. The examination paper offers the following types of short-answer tasks:
– tasks for choosing and recording the correct answers from the proposed list of answers;
– tasks to determine the sequence of arrangement of these elements;
– tasks to establish the correspondence of elements given in several information series;
– tasks to determine according to the specified characteristics and write in the form of a word (phrase) a term, name, name, century, year, etc.
The answer to the tasks of Part 1 is given by the corresponding entry in the form of a sequence of numbers written without spaces or other separators; words; phrases (also written without spaces or other separators).
Part 2 contains 6 tasks with detailed answers that identify and evaluate graduates’ mastery of various complex skills.
Tasks 20–22 are a set of tasks related to the analysis of a historical source (attribution of the source; extraction
information; attraction of historical knowledge to analyze the problems of the source, the position of the author).
Tasks 23–25 are related to the use of techniques of cause-and-effect, structural-functional, temporal and spatial analysis to study historical processes and phenomena. Task 23 is related to the analysis of any historical problem or situation. Task 24 – analysis of historical versions and assessments, argumentation of various points of view using course knowledge. Task 25 involves writing a historical essay. Task 25 is alternative: the graduate has the opportunity to choose one of three periods of Russian history and demonstrate his knowledge and skills using the historical material most familiar to him. Task 25 is assessed according to a system of criteria.
On the Unified State Exam in history, there are usually a little more than 5 percent of students who score high. There are approximately twice as many poor students.
It is noted that not everyone knows how to work with maps and factual material. Schoolchildren often make mistakes when answering questions about the Great Patriotic War. Pupils do not always understand the difference between it and the Second World War.
Before exams, it is recommended to repeat the dates and refresh your memory of the names of commanders, heroes, and statesmen. Thus, at the Unified State Examination in 2016, about 20 percent of graduates wrote that the hero of the Soviet Union is the subversive fighter Lidia Ruslanova, executed by the Nazis in 1941, and not Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya. There were also those who sent Marshal Alexander Vasilevsky to battle in Chesme Bay in 1770, while during the Great Patriotic War he was the chief of the General Staff, commanded the 3rd Belorussian Front, and led the assault on Koenigsberg.

The federal examination in history belongs to the category of selective Unified State Exams. It must be taken if the student plans to continue studying at a university that requires this certificate. History will be useful if you have chosen law, sociology, art history, cultural studies, design, or architecture as your professional activity. This subject is traditionally considered difficult by graduates.
Passing history requires not just cramming dates or names, but also the ability to operate with facts, draw informed conclusions and reasonedly express one’s attitude to processes and phenomena. To successfully pass the history exam, you should learn about possible changes in KIMs, have an idea of what is included in the 2017 Unified State Examination, and know how to prepare for writing a historical essay. Let's talk about this in more detail!
Demo version of the Unified State Exam-2017
Unified State Exam dates in history
Specialists from Rosobrnadzor have allocated the following dates for the Unified State Examination in History:
- Early period. The early exam will be held on March 16, 2017, with April 3, 2017 set aside as a reserve day. To take the exam ahead of the main deadline, you will be required to write an application (before March 1, 2017), and also be included in one of the categories of participants in the early Unified State Examination (the list of such persons is given below);
- Main stage. The main exam is scheduled for June 2, 2017.
- Reserve date. Reserve day – June 19, 2017 (in case of force majeure, there is another reserve day for all items – June 30, 2017).
No matter how much one would like to pass the test in the form of the Unified State Exam early, not everyone can pass history ahead of schedule. Those who have the right to take the Unified State Exam early include:
- graduates of previous years and those who graduated from evening school;
- participants in all-Russian or international sports competitions, competitions, creative shows or olympiads that will be held during the Unified State Exam;
- eleventh graders who decided to go to university before going to university;
- schoolchildren whose health requires treatment or prevention;
- graduates leaving the territory of Russia due to a change of residence or to study at a foreign university.
Statistical information
Statistics from past years confirm that history is one of the most popular elective subjects - in 2016, more than 159 thousand students applied for this Unified State Exam (in 2015 there were 20 thousand fewer). However, this test is not at all easy for eleventh graders. A check of this exam found that as many as 15.9% of graduates were unable to overcome the minimum limit.
Soon, the history exam may become one of the three mandatory exams However, this indicator has improved slightly compared to the previous period, when about 16.5% were recorded as failing students (with a smaller number of examinees). There were very few guys with the highest scores - only 96 people were able to demonstrate perfect knowledge and write the exam without a single mistake. On average, students pass history with 46.7 points, which can be interpreted as a “satisfactory” grade.
All this indicates that you will have to devote a lot of time and effort to preparing for the story in order to show a decent result. In addition, recently there have been more and more rumors that a third compulsory subject will be introduced into the exams. History has a very high chance of being included in the top three Unified State Exams, which are compulsory.
Changes in KIMs in history
According to the information provided, no changes are expected in the structural and content of tickets for this discipline. Among the changes it is worth noting:
- increasing the score for correct completion of tasks No. 3 and No. 8, which are now worth 2 points instead of 1;
- clarifications in the wording of task No. 25.
Structure and content of the Unified State Examination in History
History KIM consists of 25 tasks, which are divided into two parts:
- Part 1 includes 19 tasks requiring a short answer in the form of a number, a sequence of numbers, a word or a phrase;
- Part 2 consists of 6 tasks in which you need to give a detailed answer. In this part of the exam you will also have to write a short historical essay on the periods offered to choose from.
Although this exam is popular, it is still considered quite difficult This Unified State Exam will require students to demonstrate skills in searching and systematizing historical information, as well as experience working with maps and diagrams, knowledge of key dates and periods in the history of Russia and foreign countries, understanding of terminology, basic historical facts, processes and phenomena, the ability to work with historical texts.
Tasks of increased complexity are aimed at testing the skills of conducting structural-functional, spatial and temporal analysis when working with historical sources, factual material, phenomena and processes, as well as the ability to operate with historical information when conducting a discussion and writing an essay.
The procedure for conducting the Unified State Examination in History
The time allotted by FIPI for the examination will be 235 minutes. The Unified State Exam in History does not require the graduate to have any additional materials. For the Unified State Exam, you will only need a pen, so you will have to leave all unnecessary items outside the door. You should not try to bring reference books, smartphones or smart watches with you in the hope that you can copy the answers.
Any of these items will be a clear reason for removing you from the exam and giving you an unsatisfactory grade. In addition, in order to conduct the Unified State Exam, it is stated that students are strictly prohibited from leaving the classroom without permission and the accompaniment of observers, getting up from their seats, turning to their neighbors and discussing anything with them.
To prepare for the Unified State Exam, it is important to use textbooks and demo versions of tasks How is the Unified State Examination in history assessed?
Let us remind you that the minimum that a student must score in this subject is 32 points. We also advise you to pay attention to the information that in 2017, Unified State Exam scores can be taken into account in your school certificate. If we convert the obtained points into the usual grading system, then the distribution is as follows:
- graduates who scored from 0 to 31 points demonstrated unsatisfactory knowledge, therefore these points are equivalent to a mark of “2”;
- students who scored from 32 to 49 points know history at a satisfactory level, their grade is “3”;
- high school students who received from 50 to 67 points know the subject well, so they receive a mark of “4”;
- graduates who scored 68 points or higher on the exam have excellent knowledge and receive a “5”.
You will be able to view your exam scores at the announced time by registering on the Unified State Exam portal. To identify your identity, you will need to enter your passport information.
Preparing for the Unified State Exam in History
The overall complexity and large number of tasks in history KIMs will require you to competently distribute the time allotted for solving them. Getting ready to work under stress is, of course, not easy, but anxiety can be minimized. To do this, take the demo version of the Unified State Exam at home, which is offered for download on our website (see above).
This way you can reduce the time lost associated with understanding the instructions, and also prepare yourself psychologically for the exam. The proposed demo version was developed by employees of the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements, so the tasks that will be in the real KIM are similar to the trial ones in terms of topics and wording.
Essay is an important and integral part of the history exam in 2017 How to write an essay?
It is advisable to spend no more than 45-60 minutes on this part of the work. When preparing, you should familiarize yourself with the topics of previous years and write a test essay on each topic according to the requirements stated by FIPI. To get a good grade for an essay, you need to follow the plan proposed by the methodologists, which includes the following points:
- Write an introduction of several sentences that characterizes the period as a whole.
- Outline two phenomena, events or processes that became significant for the specified period.
- Give examples of two historical figures who played a significant role in the processes and events described; indicate exactly how they influenced a given historical period.
- Analyze the presence of cause-and-effect relationships between events or processes.
- Draw a conclusion that gives a general assessment of the analyzed historical period.
Let us focus on the fact that points for the last parts of the work are awarded only if the student was able to correctly characterize the time period as a whole and name the phenomena that occurred in it. If the first part of the essay does not meet the requirements of the commission, then the rest of the work is not evaluated.
