PATENT. It is useful to note the dates of the tests of the patent and those of its result in your diary now. You will also be able to discover the verdict of the college patent by candidate in this page when the time comes, as well as the associated mentions.
[Updated April 14, 2023 at 2:16 p.m.] Nothing could be easier: all you need is a diary, electronic or paper, and you will already have a freer mind by having noted your patent examination date now as a student (or your college student, if you are a concerned parent). The dates of the 2023 college patent correspond precisely to Monday June 26 and Tuesday June 27 (more details here). It should be noted that replacement tests are provided for students who could not attend their DNB (National Patent Diploma) tests for a case of force majeure (medical reason, for example).
According to the results published by National Education on July 11, 2022, the success rate of the latest college patent to date stands at 87.5% (excluding Guyana) of the 830,000 college students who presented themselves for the review. A rate showing a slight decrease of 0.6 points compared to 2021. The previous year, the DNB pass rate had fallen by 2.4 points, to 88%. And in 2020, a year greatly disrupted by the Covid where the college patent had been 100% passed in continuous assessment, the success rate had risen to 90.5%. A patent success rate which was also 86.5% in 2019, 87.1% in 2018, and 89% in 2017.
In 2022, nearly one in four DNB candidates won the mention Very good (24.4%), also specified the ministry. 22% of middle school students who took the test came out with a mention Bien; 20.7% with a Fairly good mention and 20.4% without mention. In detail, 88.7% of candidates in the general series graduated from the patent (-0.4 points compared to 2021), versus a success rate of 76.4% for the professional series (-1. 9 point).
Common to all candidates, the written exams for the college certificate are scheduled for Monday June 26 and Tuesday June 27, 2023 for the normal session. The replacement session is scheduled for Monday 18 and Tuesday 19 September 2023. It should also be noted that the modern foreign language test, reserved for individual candidates, will take place on Tuesday 27 June 2023 (afternoon) for the normal session. and Tuesday, September 19, 2023 (afternoon) for the replacement session.
The college certificate takes place over two days each year at the end of June, unlike the final written and oral exams for the baccalaureate, which take place over several weeks in June.
The patent is scored out of 800 points in total, combining continuous assessment and end-of-year tests. You need a minimum of 400 points to graduate.
Continuous assessment is taken into account in the marking, including projects carried out in class, such as PPE (Interdisciplinary Practical Education). The assessment of the common base is done on eight skills, each assessed in the school report through four levels of points:
If the student has collected 50 points everywhere, he has accumulated the maximum possible for the continuous assessment part of the patent, i.e. 400 points (as a reminder, this is half of the total points for the diploma). ? Consult the details of the skills of the common base on the website of the Ministry of National Education
The final examinations for the college patent therefore represent “only” half of the total patent scale each year, scored out of 400 points. As a reminder, there are five: the four writings of French, mathematics, history-geography / moral and civic education and sciences, as well as an oral test. This consists of a 15-minute presentation divided into two parts: 5 minutes of presentation of a project worked on during the year and 10 minutes of interview with the jury. The project presented was worked on during the interdisciplinary practical lessons or the third-year internship in a company.
