MATHEMATICS TEST. Absent from the common core, mathematics has become a teaching and a specialty test for the 2022 baccalaureate. What subjects will fall during the exam scheduled between May 11 and 13?
This is a novelty of the reform of the baccalaureate which surprised more than one: mathematics no longer appears in the common core of the school program in high school. The scientific subject remains all the same a test of the baccalaureate for the high school students who have chosen to follow the teaching of mathematics specialty in first and final year. As part of the specialty tests, the mathematics exam for the 2022 baccalaureate must take place between May 11 and 13. Candidates should be numerous to go to the test since mathematics is one of the most popular specialty courses for high school students, as indicated by a note from the Ministry of National Education relayed by Studyrama. Like all subjects, mathematics has its share of so-called easy subjects and more technical topics often feared by candidates. On what subjects will high school students be assessed for the mathematics baccalaureate? How to optimize revisions and how much time is left to prepare for the exam? Linternaute provides you with details on the mathematics test and some advice for passing the baccalaureate test.
When does the mathematics specialty test take place?
According to the calendar of baccalaureate exams, the specialty tests were to be held between the 14th and the 16th, but that was without counting on theannouncement by the Ministry of Education at the beginning of the year of the postponement of the tests to the month of May. All the written tests for specialty lessons are organized between May 11 and 13, 2022. Initial details indicate that the mathematics test will take place in the afternoon of May 11 or 12 between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m., depending on theStudent. High school students therefore still have ten days to refine their revisions.
What topics for the math test?
Before each bac test, candidates ask themselves the same question: on what subjects will they be assessed? And as always it is impossible to know with certainty the subjects of the exams. But this year the Ministry of Education differentiated for each subject themes likely to fall in the baccalaureate session of even years and those reserved for the tests of odd years. The major themes or those judged as such remain on the baccalaureate program every year. Unfortunately, no classification is planned in mathematics, so all subjects can potentially be on the menu for the 2022 baccalaureate. All except those which are not intended to be assessed in the mathematics specialty test. Here is the list of themes not to be discarded during revisions:
- Manipulation of vectors, lines and planes of space
- Orthogonality and distances in space
- Parametric representations and Cartesian equations
- Sequels
- Function limits
- Complements on the derivation
- Continuity of functions of a real variable
- Logarithm function
- Primitives, differential equations
- Succession of independent proofs, Bernoulli scheme
During the mathematics specialty test, candidates have four hours to blacken their copy. The test is divided into four exercises on different themes of the program and the high school student must choose to carry out three of their choice. This modality is permitted by the arrangements planned and announced by the Minister of National Education, Jean-Michel Blanquer, on January 28 and which “[garantissent] The candidate always has a choice, whether between questions or between exercises”. To help the student in his choice, all the subjects must specify the different themes addressed.
When will the math test results be released?
Although the mathematics test is organized one month before the written and oral French, philosophy and oral tests, the results could not be known until the publication of all the results, namely July 5. 2022. Initially, the mark obtained in this test should have appeared in the Parcoursup file but with the postponement of the dates, it is possible that the announcement of the results of the candidates will be postponed until the end of the baccalaureate.
