In the context of forthcoming introduction of compulsory Unified State Examination in English for all school graduates in Russia, a realistic assessment of their readiness for this experience becomes a topic of various discussions. The article studies the results of English placement test passed by all freshmen of non-linguistic departments of the university. The test outcome provides data on a level of language proficiency shown by students who nowadays do not choose English as a subject for the final school examination. The analysis of empiric evidence enables the authors to conclude that obligatory English exam for all graduates is now inadvisable. The paper also gives a brief description of students streaming for language classes at the university as general placement test supports its implementation.
Keywords:Unified State Examination, English, placement test, level of language proficiency, streaming.
