The Romanian Ministry of Education has published the official exam questions and grading rubrics for the 2026 Baccalaureate, specifically for the Mathematics and History subjects taken by high school graduates. This release allows students who sat for the exams on Wednesday to review their performance by comparing their answers with the official solutions provided by the National Center for Curriculum and Evaluation.
The published materials cover various tracks of the Mathematics exam, including technical, natural sciences, and computer science profiles, alongside the History exam. The History exam was administered to students from theoretical, humanistic, and vocational tracks, including those specializing in arts, sports, pedagogy, and theology.
Detailed grading instructions emphasize that correct answers, even if differing from the official rubric, will receive appropriate points. Partial solutions may also earn intermediate scores, but fractional points are not awarded. All candidates automatically receive 10 points for each written test, with the final score calculated by dividing the total accumulated points by 10.
Looking ahead, students will take their subject-specific elective exam on July 2, followed by the final written test in their native language on July 3 for those studying in minority languages. The first results are expected on July 8, with final results to be published after the review and appeals process.
