On November 20, the All-Russian geographical dictation was held throughout the country. In Orenburg, one of the venues for it was the Orenburg State University. The conference hall of the scientific library of OSU on the 7th floor was almost full by the beginning of the dictation. There were students, schoolchildren, geography teachers who also tested their knowledge, and other people interested in geography. My favorite subject at school was geography, I had several atlases and I liked to study and look at them, so it was interesting to test my knowledge.

Before the start of the dictation, representatives of the university and the guest of honor Alexander Alexandrovich Chibilev, Russian geographer, academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, doctor of geographical sciences, professor, delivered a welcoming speech.
As a warm-up, docents of the university held a small quiz of questions similar to those that will be in the dictation. Those who answered correctly received atlases and books about the reserves of the Orenburg region from Alexander Alexandrovich Chibilev as a gift.

Then there was a short briefing on how to fill out the participant's questionnaire. The dictation is conducted anonymously, you do not need to indicate your last name and first name, only general information: gender, age, education, field of activity for compiling statistics.
The dictation consists of 30 questions, which could be conditionally divided into three sections, questions on the knowledge of geographical terms and names, questions about the location of geographical objects and questions where it was necessary to guess a geographical object from excerpts from works of art.

The time for writing the dictation is 45 minutes. A video was launched through the projector, where questions were read out and there was a timer for each question, the time for the answer was different depending on the complexity. Each question was accompanied by a picture, which in most cases was also a good clue.
In general, the questions are not very difficult, more than half should definitely be correct. But some I already know that I answered incorrectly (
I did not like that some of the people sitting next to each other conferred and voiced their supposed answers. Still, this is a test of their knowledge, and not a collective answer.
They said that the results will be known at the end of December, we will wait!

Those who did not go to the dictation in person can take the online dictation. It will last until November 23 inclusive and end at 14:00 Moscow time. Here you can see the results immediately. This is another option with questions similar to those that were in the face-to-face dictation. I have already passed the online dictation and scored 71 points out of a hundred. Now I will wait for the results of the full-time dictation, for some reason it seems to me that the results here should be better.

Hello, Natalya Borisovna!
49 points is also not bad! Maybe try another version? Again? Just for myself to remember... Or better yet, open an online dictation, google the answers, write them down in a notebook and learn the answers! That's definitely useful!
And literary questions were hard for me - I need to work on myself))))
