Bac 2022 dates History test bac philo Grand oral

BACCALAUREATE. The philosophy baccalaureate takes place on June 15 and the Grand Oral takes place from June 20 for high school students in Terminale. Discover the dates of the tests for future graduates, as well as the coefficients, mentions and evaluation criteria.

The high school students are about to pass the philosophy testwhich takes place this Wednesday, June 15, 2022. Then place at Grand oral examination of the baccalaureate, which begins on June 20, 2022. Certain specialty tests that took place last May also sparked controversy: such as the SES tests deemed too political or those of Spanish since the subjects were those who had already fallen in 2021. But the hiccups of the baccalaureate subjects do not s don’t stop there: on May 31, the day before their specialty test, 24 final year students from the Franco-Spanish BachiBac course at the Nelson-Mandela International High School in Nantes discovered with horror that their history teacher made a mistake in the syllabus : he had anticipated the directives of the following year. The next day, they therefore discovered during the specialty test with a coefficient of 15 that they had to work on a subject on Spain in the 20th century and on another on the decolonized people, subjects they barely knew. “Many students walked out after two hours. Some came out after five hours, but completely in tears“, explained a candidate on LCI. The situation is all the more problematic in that a mark of less than 10 is eliminatory for these baccalaureate holders. The rectorate, however, wanted to reassure them by guaranteeing in a press release that all measures will be taken to ensure that this situation does not harm the candidates in any way“.

Continuous and terminal assessment: how to calculate your baccalaureate grade?

For students in the general and technological baccalaureate, continuous assessment counts for 40% of the final grade : the average of the reports of 1st has a coefficient 5 just like the teaching of specialty followed only in 1st. In this percentage, we also find history geography, modern language A and modern language B which have a coefficient of 6.33 and scientific education and PE which have a coefficient of 5 and which are linked to the final cycle 2022-2022. Finally, moral and civic education, which has a coefficient of 1, is also part of continuous assessment. LThe final check counts for 60% of the final grade. The anticipated French tests have a coefficient of 5 for the oral and 5 for the written. The two specialty courses have a coefficient of 16 and philosophy a coefficient of 8. Finally, the Grand oral has a coefficient of 10 in general. The Ministry of National Education offers on its website a painting allowing you to easily calculate our rating.

Bac 2022: what coefficients?

Final or anticipated tests

Of the 100 coefficients, 60 would be obtained in the context of anticipated tests or final tests:

  • Advance examinations for the French baccalaureate at the end of first year (written, coefficient 5; oral, coefficient 5);
  • The two tests for specialty lessons followed in terminale (coefficient 16 for each of them). This therefore represents 32% of the final mark (out of the 60% of the final examination).
  • The philosophy (coefficient 8 in the general route, 4 in the technological route);
  • The Grand Oral Baccalaureate (coefficient 10 in the general route, 14 in the technological route).

Continuous control coefficients

40 of these coefficients would be obtained with continuous control calculated according to the student’s general average, which takes into account the averages for the year of the final cycle school report cards.

  • All the disciplines of the common core which are not the subject of final tests (modern languages ​​A and B, history-geography, physical education and sports, scientific education for the general route, mathematics for the technological route) would have a coefficient of 6 (3 in 1st, 3 in terminal);
  • Specialty education (abandoned at the end of first year) would have a coefficient of 8 (ie half of the specialty education retained by the candidate in the final year);
  • Moral and civic education will have a coefficient of 2 (1 in première, 1 in terminale). It contributes to the acquisition of the values ​​of the Republic and secularism, and will thus be distinguished in the evaluation.

Bac and Covid: what arrangements for 2022?

  • Vocational baccalaureate: For high school students taking the vocational baccalaureate, the duration of the professional training periods (PFMP) is reduced by 7 to 8 weeks compared to the usual durations. Candidates thus have more time to prepare for their baccalaureate exams, which will retain the same format and the same program.
  • Physical education and sport : controls during training, usually three in number, may be reduced to two when the consequences of the health situation on the availability of facilities or the preparation of students justify it.
  • Advance oral French test in 1st general and technological: this year, the number of texts to be presented orally will be reduced to 16 in general and 9 in technological.

The usual mentions are maintained this year. But from what grade do we get a mention in the baccalaureate ?

  • Mention Fairly well for an average between 12 and 14
  • Mention Bien : between 14 and 16
  • Honors : between 16 and 18;
  • Mention Very good with the congratulations of the jury for an average greater than 18.
