National Examinations will be conducted in three compulsory subjects instead of four from 2020.

Georgian language and literature and foreign language exams will be mandatory for all entrants.

The third compulsory subject will be determined according to the programs of higher educational institutions. In particular, in the case of technical directions, entrants will have to pass mathematics and in case of humanitarian directions – history.

Entrants will still be able to choose both technical and humanitarian programs.

Passing the general skills exam will no longer be compulsory. Universities have the right to add a selective examination relevant to the program, including a general skills exam.

In addition, from 2020 graduate exams will be abolished. In particular, in 2019, 11th graders will be exempt from graduation exams, but these exams will be retained for the twelfth graders.
