In this regard, before enrollment, the student takes exams in the main subjects to determine the passing score. In some institutions, it is enough to successfully pass an oral interview with a teacher.
Many parents are dissatisfied with the format of education and the arrangement of study hours. The number of students in one class reaches up to 40 people, so the public school works in two shifts. The quality of the Russian language taught may also suffer, as many teachers speak with a characteristic 9Ol000 98 named after Avlabari
