Clearly, the key words of these patent events are the Olympic Games. They were already there. Mentioned in the math subjects of the professional certificate yesterday, they are mentioned again today. new today, in the subject of physics-chemistry of the thirds of the general series. It talks about Olympic swimming pools and the water they contain. The use of a video surveillance system in forest fire prevention ecirc;ts is the subject of the second part devoted to technology.

For candidates in the professional series, the theme of the Earth sciences and life exercise is toxoplasmosis: a parasitic infection that causes disease. can affect humans in contact with a cat carrying the parasite (toxoplasma gondii) or by consuming contaminated foods (undercooked meat, raw fruits and vegetables). In this exercise, students must answer the following questions: five questions documents à support. For the technology exercise, candidates are asked about the "Smart Home" and in particular on new technologies which make it possible to centralize the different systems in a house (heating, shutters, doors, lighting).

Everything you need to know about the science certificate

During the science exam for the brevet des collèges, on Tuesday, July 2, students in metropolitan France have only one hour to answer all the questions. The subject is made up of two parts, one per scientific subject, each worth 25 points. Called from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., they will have to work on several exercises, to obtain the maximum number of points out of the 50 points that this test can earn. 

The science test for the brevet is marked each year out of 50 points (25 points per sub-subject), which is less than French and mathematics (100 points), but as much as history-geography. Up to 25 points are therefore earned by students per subject. As a reminder, the brevet is marked out of a total of 800 points between continuous assessment, written and oral exams, the dates of which have been staggered according to the establishments until this Friday, July 1. An average of 400 points is required to obtain the national brevet diploma (DNB) at the end of this course.

The date of publication of the results depends on the academy to which they belong, but they should be available no later than Friday, July 12. After the results, a republican ceremony for awarding brevet diplomas is organized at each year for the winners in their college. The academies, in conjunction with the schools and the elected representatives of the territory – mayors, departmental councilors, etc. – organize, each year, an official presentation of the diplomas obtained the previous year.
