The results obtained by the students at the simulation of the national evaluation exam 2025 in mathematics have been the best in recent years. The children solved the topics on the treadmill, some exercises being so simple that, in some cases, they did not need any more. “I could say that the students received a simulation simulation this year ”, He commented for “Adevărul” Marian Stas, an expert in education.
In mathematics, students have received the lightest topics in recent years. Archive
“I looked at the topics in mathematics, I saw them, I solved them. What I noticed, and this should give us a thought, is that, unlike last year, when the notes were extremely low, now the results are very good.”commented the specialist.
However, from last year and until now, nothing remarkable, nothing out of the ordinary in the students’ learning process, in the process of teaching in the classroom, of assimilating the knowledge. “This means that, in fact, the students did not progress, but the topics were extremely easy. I could say that the students received a simulation simulation,” Marian Stas continues.
And the reasons are other than the pedagogical ones, the specialist considers. “Last year, simulations were “for good”. Were true. The topics were more complicated. Which is why the students achieved some weak results. This year, on the other hand, the topics given in mathematics were incomparably lighter. And then, of course, the notes were higher. “
In addition, the expert said, it seems that this year he has been difficult for grid exercises this year. “That’s how I heard some teachers speaking. And, if it is true, then, obviously, the results are distorted ”.
Why this difference between the difficulty degrees of last year’s topics and this year? “Of fear. For fear. We stole our hat once again. “ These high grades, the expert continues, were not obtained because the students really know mathematics, they even learned, they are smarter, they have increased their level of training. These notes mirror a false reality. “And that true and hard reality we will see in the summer, if the exam will be true exams, not a simulacr.”
Marian Staș explained that last year, at the spring simulation, he observed courage in the way of conception of the topics, which were more serious, who put the children to think, to make a certain intellectual effort. “Which is why when they received the grades, everyone failed. “

“The exams are hit by the nullity of mediocrity”
Although no one has officially recognized, at the national summer exams, both at the evaluation and in the baccalaureate, the topics are usually lighter than the simulations. On the other hand, students must, however, be aware that this is not a rule. We can speak, rather, about a trend. What are the reasons? At the simulations the water is tried with the finger. If the results are weak, it means that students, to take notes, need lighter topics. “For me, this topic stopped having any relevance. As they are built and how they are delivered, national exams are hit by the nullity of mediocrity. So it doesn’t matter what happens inside this mechanism. ”
Marian Staș believes that these simple topics in mathematics should raise great question marks. “This year’s jump of the high, good and very good grades is unbelievable compared to the fact that nothing has changed from last year until this year. Children study mathematics as well. ”
The specialist confessed that he is waiting for the summer exams with great interest. “We hear ourselves in the summer. I wonder, and then there will be hundreds of 10 averages in mathematics? I doubt, to be honest. But we see when the results will be published.”
According to data officially communicated by the Ministry of Education, this year at the simulation of the mathematics exam, ten 581 works were noted, out of a total of 161,004 evaluated works. The number of works that obtained grades higher than or equal to 5 was over 100,000.
Mathematics professor: “Working subjects”
Immediately after finding out the topics that failed in mathematics when simulating the national assessment 2025, I consulted a teacher who explained the degree of difficulty of the exercises.
Denisa Tănăsescu, a mathematics teacher within the National College “Ilcagiale” in Bucharest told us that this year the exercises were flower in the ear. “Which is why many high grades will be taken. We will see many grades of 10, many of 5. The reason? The very good children from the beginning have no reason to do problems. And those who have not learned, even they will take a passing note. Small, but passing ”.
The requirements to which the students had to answer were correctly formulated, clear, concise, without traps, without attracting children in confusion. “The topics were balanced, well thought out, well formulated. Of common sense. They came, practically, to meet the students. So divine work, do not spark divine. This was asked this year ”, said Professor Denisa Tănăsescu.
