YEREVAN, AUGUST 2, NOYAN TAPAN. As of August 2, appeals
against scores of 894 written examinations taken by entrants to
Armenian higher educational institutions have been submitted, as
a result of which 179 scores have been raised. Ruben Topchian,
Director of the Calculating Center of the Republican Commission
on Entrance Examinations, told reporters on August 2 that the
greatest number of appeals (226) were filed regarding written
maths papers. Only in one case, the score was raised by 2
points: a written paper on Russian.
R. Topchian said that 55 double appeals have been received
by the commission so far. Scores of 13 written papers have been
raised (by 1.3 points in the maximum), while two scores have
been lowered by 1 point each.
According to him, until now 1,351 entrants have been absent
from their exams, exams have been interrupted because of 28
ones, and new emamination days have been fixed for 513 entrants.
R. Topchain said that high scores of English and Armenian
exams are indicative of the fact that these tests were not
difficult. 26 entrants have already dropped out of the
competition for the speciality "Law", 21 entrants - for
"Journalism" and 44 ones - for "the Armenian language and
literature".
