If you have a desire to even try to enroll in master's degree at Moscow State Law Academy, then you definitely need to do this. At least because entrance examination shows the level of knowledge as objectively as possible, and the assessment system determines the quality indicators of this level. Students contact me every day with questions about admission to the master's program and the entrance exam. All the answers can be found on the MSLA website, but there are some points that should be mentioned in advance.

What is the entrance exam?

Written-oral interdisciplinary examination.

  • Time: ~1.5 hours(we had 1 astronomical hour = 60 minutes, from this year the time has been increased, the Admissions Committee will tell you exactly),
  • Answer: on 2 questions in various areas of law.
  • Ticket contents: First question on TGP, second in specialized areas of law (Communist Party of the Russian Federation, civil law, civil procedure, criminal law, criminal procedure)

How is the entrance exam?

After the whole epic of submitting documents, you are assigned a day for the exam, which you must appear for. with passport, notice and pen. You enter the classroom, check in with your passport with the curator of the site, receive an applicant's kit (front page, white paper), choose a ticket and sit down in any free seat.

We were told that we could open the ticket when everyone was seated and received their kits. Naturally, most of the applicants did not wait for anyone, frantically read the questions, and even began to write answers to the questions in the white paper. I was terribly scared, so I acted solely according to the instructions. They told me not to look, but I don’t look.

Drafts They are distributed on the spot, so you don’t need to take anything with you. It’s better to take several pens, because the paste tends to run out at the most inopportune times, and the curators may not have extra with them.

About “Is it really possible to write it off?” I can say one thing: everyone who copied next to me through headphones/phone/from cheat sheets was removed from the exam. And it was so shameful and loud that it was often distracting. You are calmly writing your answer, then suddenly someone above you loudly declares, “We are drawing up an act!” And it's scary. Even in my case, when I did not dare to take water into the classroom in order to avoid test situations.

All one time ( as on the Unified State Exam) h fill out the front page of the exam answer and put it aside. From now on, your answer is impersonal. Instead of your full name, you have a code. Everything is in the best traditions of RosReestr)) This is cool, because corruption at the admission level is minimal here. After all, according to the results, when the answers are appreciated commission, she will put points on the answer sheet itself, outlining controversial and incorrect points. And then, almost a year later, in practice at the Academy you will be able to see your real results and those of your classmates. Stupid people won't work on a budget!

After the time allotted for the exam expires, everyone will be asked, insisted on handing in the answers, and then simply take the sheets from their hands, regardless of how much has been written. Therefore I advise don’t bother with writing in drafts, Although you shouldn't neglect them at all. Drafts can be great helpers, but more on that later.

Each question is worth 50 points. Accordingly, the maximum is 100 .

How to answer questions?

In fact, above the questions for applicants there is information on a page of A4 text with the criteria by which the applicant’s answer is assessed. For each criterion 10 points are given. But no one seems to read them, so I'll duplicate them with clarifying comments:

  • definition of basic concepts, signs of the described phenomenon (phenomena);
    you need to give a succinct definition and, based on it, identify the characteristics. Try not to write more than 7 signs. If the concept is complex, then the signs can be briefly explained. If you feel that this is unnecessary, then it’s not worth it. Since it is better to reveal the functions and classification, which will come later.
    Do not give more signs than indicated in the definition of the concept, since the question arises: since this is a sign, why is it not indicated in the definition? And if you are sure, then divide it into main signs and additional ones.
  • correlation of concepts with related concepts;
    here we are talking about similar objects (for example, the subject of law and the subject of legal relations; theft and robbery), and a foreign analogue (for example, a jury trial and a court of sheffens; the administrative justice of the Russian Federation and the administrative courts of Germany). This is a very important point, so don't skip it.
  • classification of concepts;
    classification is not just a listing of types, but first identifying criteria, and then dividing into types (for example, classification of financial markets. 1) according to circulation periods: money market and capital market;
    2) by area of ​​operation: loan market, stock market, foreign exchange market)
  • main provisions of legislation related to this
    question;
    how this or that concept is implemented both in Russia and abroad. And if you come from a certain region, you can highlight the implementation of this or that concept in your subject.
  • necessary additional information (analysis of problematic aspects, points of view, etc.)
    this is freedom and flight, which must necessarily contain different doctrinal points of view with reference to eminent scientists. If you don’t know any of the luminaries on your ticket, then remember your teachers. Do you remember? And now the most senior ones from the department. Remember every seminar lesson, lecture, find out their personal point of view. Every (normal) university has amazing doctors, candidates of legal sciences, and practitioners.

    What should you pay attention to?

    There shouldn’t be a lot of water, everything is according to the criteria. At the same time, no schematic images, mechanical 1) 2) 3). There should be text as if you were writing an article, a post in a magazine. An answer will not be accepted if there is no associated text that allows you to follow the logic of the reasoning. This is probably the most difficult thing.
    Abbreviations. Are not valid. Everyone’s favorite, for example, abbreviation K RF (Constitution of the Russian Federation) will be perceived as a personal insult if you have a question about the Communist Party of the Russian Federation (oops, irony). At the same time, the Civil Code and the Criminal Code are normal) A very sensitive question about the abbreviation “RF”. If you have a question about the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, do not be lazy to write “Russian Federation”, because in the basic law of Russia there are only two correct spelling options.
    Drafts. People also pay attention to them and evaluate them. Of course, this is a very attractive lifesaver. If, for example, you are not sure which categories of cases belong to special proceedings, indicate 3-4 in the white paper, and all the remaining ones, in your opinion, in the draft. If they match, then they will most likely be credited to you. They announced this to us at a meeting before the exam, I don’t know, maybe it was akin to psychological calm, but if it helped someone, then I’m glad)

    Chances?

    If you have good knowledge of theory, then that's great. So, you will get your 50 points. The second question is more difficult. If there is a second question on civil law and procedure, then most likely it will be difficult to get through to the budget. Very demanding teachers. I’m telling you this as a master’s student in the Department of Civil Procedure) If you come across a question from criminal law and procedure, then the situation is 50/50. With the Communist Party of the Russian Federation everything depends on the level of training, there should not be any special problems. I never lie about the difficulty with civil law. No matter how many times I ask my classmates, they all answer, “I had a constitutional/criminal record.” Not a single person yet who has come across civil law. And this already says something!
    Good luck to all applicants! See you next year :)

Moscow State Law University named after. Kutafina, known among students by the abbreviation MSYuA, is very popular among many applicants. This is confirmed by the fact that although the passing score is quite high every year, the number of people wishing to enter this institution does not decrease. Despite the fact that the passing score for the jurisprudence budget is as much as 86 for each subject of the Unified State Exam and enough places are allocated for the budget, the competition among students is still quite tough, since they all have a high level of knowledge and preparation for future studies. If you want to enroll in the specialty “forensic science” or “legal support of national security”, then the average score here is slightly lower - 82.4.

MSLA has its own history. He will turn 87 next year. Today, 17 thousand students study at Moscow State Law Academy.

This university has many branches, which are located in cities such as Vologda, Orenburg, Kirov, Makhachkala, Magadan. The university consists of more than a dozen institutes, including the prosecutor’s office, the legal profession, forensic science, business law and many others. At these institutes, the areas of law and forensic science, which, as already mentioned, are quite popular among graduates, have a lot of competition and a high passing score.

MSLA is widely known not only in Moscow, Russia, but also in other countries, not only due to its reputation, history, but also due to its professional staff. After all, famous lawyers, academicians, honored scientists, and true professionals in their field teach at MSLA.

The Academy has an impeccable reputation; it is not without reason that during its entire existence, MSLA has graduated more than 150 thousand specialists who are known not only as highly qualified specialists in Russia, but also abroad.

MISiS: passing scores on a budget

Due to the fact that this university is so popular among applicants, it sets a fairly high passing score for the budget. So in 2017, in the field of study in jurisprudence, you had to score 329 points, and in the field of forensic science, the score was 241.

Official website – main assistant

MSLA also has its own official website, by visiting which applicants can find all the information necessary for admission. In the section of the website “Admissions Committee”, “Applicants” you will find not only a list of documents that will be needed for admission, but also the rules for admission. In addition, on the website you will find what passing score you will need to enter the budget in 2017.

In addition to the fact that it contains information about the faculties of the university in Moscow, it also contains details that you need to know when enrolling not only in the first year, but also in master’s, doctoral and postgraduate studies. The applicant will be able to get acquainted with the deadlines for submitting documents, as well as the deadlines within which the results will be announced, who entered the budget in previous years or in 2017. In addition, applicants can learn about the possibility of preparatory courses. Since the competition is high, this will be a good opportunity for future students to gain not only additional knowledge, but also additional points.

In addition to all of the above information, graduates will also be able to find information about benefits that are taken into account upon admission. For example, if students are winners and prize-winners of the Kutafa Olympiad for schoolchildren in law, the Interregional Olympiad for schoolchildren “Highest Test”, the Olympiad for schoolchildren “Lomonosov”, the Moscow Olympiad for schoolchildren and other Olympiads, then such applicants are equated to those who scored 100 points in the additional exam in social studies, and the Unified State Examination in the same subject with at least 70 points.

Master's degree - admission features

In addition to the fact that many students enter the first year of Moscow State Law Academy, many also wish to continue their studies at this university for a master's degree. Detailed information about the admission rules, what documents are needed and the number of places per budget for full-time, part-time and part-time courses can be found in the “Master’s” section of the official website. In 2017, the number of places for a full-time master's degree is 250 places, for full-time and part-time courses – 150, and for part-time courses, respectively, 155. The passing score in 2017 is the sum of the points for the entrance exam, additionally for scientific works, articles, publications and participation in seminars and conferences. It is this total that makes up the score with which you will be able to pass the budget test.

How to enter MAMI on a budget and what points are needed

In general, getting into this university is quite difficult, but it is possible if you strive and prepare for it. Applicants will have to work hard to achieve a passing grade. Because, as you can see, in 2017, as in previous years, the competition is quite high, and the competition between future students is also quite high. That’s why you need to take advantage of all the opportunities: participate in Olympiads, various competitions, achieve high results. You also need to pass the Unified State Exam well, since a lot depends on it and many recommend taking additional classes or taking the opportunity to take courses at the university itself.

In addition, if you are planning to study for a master's degree in the future, then once you enter the university, do not relax, but, on the contrary, intensify your activities: participate in all kinds of competitions, olympiads, and conferences. And this will play into your hands in the future, because every additional point will give you the opportunity to pass on a budget.
