subject: out of 8 thousand school leavers who took foreign language
exams, 100 received the highest score of 20 points, and over a thousand
of them received 18-19 points. A. Ashotian explained the high scores
by several factors: first, the English tests were relatively easy,

July the ministry will organize additional examinations for those who
did not take exams for a good reason, persons studying under various
programs abroad, as well as for servicemen demobilized from the army.
