The mechanism of the exam has remained the same, except for two changes. This year, a ban on the use of smartphones and audio-video-photo-fixation devices has been introduced throughout the entire territory of the exam, not just in the classroom. Therefore, gadgets will be confiscated from students at the pass control stage. At the same time, the use of phones in the courtyards of testing centres on the street will be allowed. The second innovation is that subject teachers will no longer be present at the centralised examination.
