Applicants who were unable to take the main session of the National Multidisciplinary Test (NMT) due to heavy shelling will be able to do so during an additional session. This was announced by Tetyana Vakulenko, director of the Ukrainian Centre for Educational Quality Assessment.
According to her, the situation in eastern and southern Ukraine remains difficult, and regular shelling is preventing the testing from taking place. Although the organisers are unable to reschedule all assessment dates, those who missed the test for valid reasons — due to shelling, illness or other extraordinary circumstances — will be able to take it later.

To do so, applicants must submit documents to the relevant regional centre for educational quality assessment within three days after the test date. They will be automatically admitted to participate in the additional session.
According to Vakulenko, this year there have already been cases of destruction of educational institutions where temporary examination centres were to be located. As a result, applicants were urgently transferred to other locations or their tests were rescheduled for an additional session.

She also noted that in some regions there is a shortage of shelters suitable for testing, and power and internet outages periodically interrupt the assessment process itself.
Despite the difficult conditions, the main session of the NMT is almost over — testing began on 14 May and will continue until 25 June. More than 312,000 participants registered. Those who had already taken the test by 5 June received their results. At the beginning of next week, the results will be announced for all participants in the main session. The final verification of knowledge is planned to be completed after the additional session.
