The number of people wishing to take the national multi-subject test has increased significantly in Ukraine: this year, 355,000 people registered for the National Multidisciplinary Test (NMT) (including a 70-year-old applicant), compared to 317,000 last year.
Tetiana Vakulenko, director of the Ukrainian Center for Educational Quality Assessment, reported this on Ukrinform’s program “Ye Rozmova.”
“This year we have some rather interesting data, as 355,000 people registered during the main registration period. For example, last year there were 317,000 applicants. We have a significantly larger number of potential NMT participants,” she noted.
According to Vakulenko, 18,500 applicants plan to take the test abroad this year.
“For example, last year there were 317,000 applicants. This means we have a significantly larger number of potential participants in the National Multidisciplinary Test. And abroad last year, up to 20,000 applicants were expected to take the assessment, but in reality, up to 16,000 applicants actually took it. This year, there are 18,500 registered applicants,” explains Vakulenko.
