Slept 6 hours, worked, studied on weekends, earned for courses herself: the price of 100 points on the Centralized Exam for a schoolgirl from Berezino

Hanna began preparing for the Centralized Exam while already working. At 16, without her parents' consent, she got a job as a barista, then a bartender. She paid for all her tutoring sessions herself.

Let's calculate together:

• Russian language — about 2500 rubles (lessons from July).
• Social studies — about 2700 rubles.
• History of Belarus (Kedr courses) — 554 rubles for 3 months.

In total for preparation — more than 5 thousand rubles. Hanna earned this money herself.

— How many hours a day? When I work, I don't study at all. On weekends — 3-4 hours. I slept 6-7 hours, sometimes 8, if I was lucky, — the girl recounts.

A key figure in Hanna's preparation was Yulia Gennadyevna Sushinskaya, a tutor. She previously worked at a gymnasium and now only engages in private practice. Her approach is not to "train for tests" but to teach understanding of the material.

— When you work on understanding, not on keywords, then there are no problems with formulations either, — Hanna explains.

Apparently, it works: for social studies — 100 points.

To the question of what distracts modern schoolchildren, Hanna answers briefly:

— I am generally an asocial person. No TikTok, no long sessions on social media.

— I have few friends, they don't call me to hang out. Instead — work, notes, and one overarching goal.

In 2025, the passing score for the Faculty of Philosophy and Social Communications (where Hanna's mother studied) was 382.

Hanna's total for three subjects is 389-390, plus history at 99 points (one mistake).

Hanna's first Centralized Exam in social studies went calmly: she drew her favorite number 14, sat down for the fifth variant, and "didn't bother anyone."

But for the Russian language exam, the atmosphere was different.

— After violations were found during the first Centralized Exam, a commission came in during the second one, took away files, and emptied pockets. The atmosphere was very tense, — the girl recalls.

At the most crucial moment, there was a glitch: while transferring answers to the form, she mixed up the tasks. She crossed it out and corrected it.

— I thought: the computer won't read it. But a person, maybe, will understand.

She called her tutor with one question about the phrase "the air was saturated with mystery" — is it an addition or part of the predicate? She calmed down.

And then an SMS arrived.

— I sat refreshing the RIKC website from three o'clock. The site "crashed". They wrote in Telegram: wait for an SMS. It arrived half an hour later. I sighed with relief.

Hanna lists what she paid for success.

— I didn't draw, didn't read, didn't do any of my old hobbies. I only studied, worked, and slept.

Even her health couldn't withstand it: atopic dermatitis flared up. After the exams, she had to go to the hospital to treat her hands.

— Hanna, does Berezino mean something to you?

— Of course. My childhood passed here. I love my grandmother, I know all her friends. This is my town, and it brought me luck.

Hanna independently studied chemistry, physics, and mathematics in a year and a half. Now she plans to enter the Faculty of Journalism or the Faculty of Philosophy — where information and communication are studied. Like her mother.
