About 9,000 students are expected to take matriculation exams in various subjects during the closure in the coming month.
This is especially significant for students and graduates of the education system who are interested in improving grades for enrollment in the upcoming academic year.
The exams are expected to take place under the restrictions of wearing a mask and maintaining a distance between examinees - as was the case during the last matriculation period. The main obstacle will be the recruitment of examiners for exams, as many of them belong to risk groups, and also due to the fact that there will be a reduction in public transport activity.
