Spoiler: it's easy if you navigate the map of Russia, carefully read the assignments and give detailed answers.
OGE expert, teacher of geography at Foxford
In the OGE in geography there are 30 tasks that need to be completed in 2 hours:
- 17 tasks where the answer consists of one digit;
- 7 tasks in which the answer is a number or a series of numbers;
- 3 tasks, the answer to which will be a word or phrase;
- 3 tasks in which you need to give a detailed comment.
All tasks with a short answer and task 23 are estimated at 1 point, for tasks 15 and 20 you can get up to 2 points. The maximum score for the entire work is 32.
How long does it take to prepare
If a student regularly attends classes and has a mark of “4” in geography, the OGE will not present any difficulty for him. Some of my students already in September write a trial OGE with “good” and almost “excellent”. With such guys, I do additional work only in May.
It happens that a student is not at all interested in studying and at school he is at school “in the background”. Even in this case, it is realistic to pass the OGE for the “troika”. Preparation will take 4-5 months, that is, you need to start in February.
A successful student can prepare for the exam on their own, and it will be useful to take at least one consultation from the teacher. An experienced teacher will tell you which atlases you need to use when performing a particular task, so as not to waste time on a long search for information.
What materials are best to use
The OGE practically does not contain tasks that would test knowledge of geography. On the exam, you need to show that the student knows how to use the atlas. Therefore, it is pointless to study textbooks, you need to analyze the tasks of past years from the FIPI website.
To complete the first 12 tasks, atlases will come in handy. It is important to remember that the 7th grade atlas contains maps of the world, continents and oceans, the 8th grade atlas is dedicated to nature, and the 9th grade to the Russian economy. If the student is confused, the desired card can be found using the table of contents.
To remember the location of mountains, seas and cities, training with contour maps or a puzzle map will help. In other tasks, the necessary information is given in the condition.
How to complete tasks
Consider task 4 from the demo. It is necessary to determine in which region snow avalanches pose a particular threat. First of all, let's turn to common sense and figure out that mountains and snow are needed for avalanches to come down. Now, using a precipitation map, a physical and administrative map of Russia, we determine that the highest mountains and snowfalls are found in Alanya - answer number 2.
An example of task number 4 from the 2019 demo
Tasks 10 and 11 are performed on the basis of the proposed meteorological map. The student needs to know that the letter "H" means a cyclone, and "B" means an anticyclone. The remaining symbols are signed, for example, bulges - a warm atmospheric front, notches - a cold one.
An example of a meteorological map for tasks 10 and 11
Let's assume that in task 10 it is required to determine which of the cities (Novorossiysk, Salekhard, Tyumen or Blagoveshchensk) is located in the zone of the cyclone. The map clearly shows that a warm atmospheric front came close to Blagoveshchensk. The remaining cities are located too far from the cyclone zone.
Example task 11 from the 2019 demo
Since a warm atmospheric front is approaching Blagoveshchensk, this city should be chosen as an answer to task 11. Let's check other options: a cold front is approaching Petrozavodsk, and Elista and Abakan are located far from the cyclone zone.
In task 26, you need to know that the deeper the rock lies, the older it is, the closer to the surface, the younger. In this example, the correct answer is "2|1|3".
Example task 26 from demo 2019
A question in which geographical thinking is useful will be found in task 27. 4 points are given, as a rule, two in the north and two in the south. It is necessary to figure out which city the climatogram belongs to. I advise you to act according to the algorithm:
1. Determine in which hemisphere the desired city is located. If it is warm in January and cold in July, then in the south, if vice versa - in the north.
2. We look at how much precipitation falls. I suggest that students focus on the figure of 600 mm per year for Moscow and compare the data with this amount.
A fragment of task 27 from the 2019 demo
In our example, the warmest months are marked with the letter “and” - June and July, which means the city is in the northern hemisphere, we cut off points C and D. The number 760 indicates the amount of precipitation. In this case, not much more than in Moscow, so it is unlikely that the city is located by the ocean. Thus, between A and B, we choose the second option, located in the depths of the mainland.
How to avoid mistakes
Reread the task before answering
Typical mistakes students make in a hurry and inattention. For example, in task 26, it is required to list the breeds, starting from the most ancient ones, and the student indicates in the reverse order. Another case: in task 24, the student perfectly understands that the first people to celebrate the New Year are the inhabitants of Chukotka and Kamchatka, and in the answer they will confuse everything. Therefore, the task should be read carefully and reread it again before writing down the answer.
Example task 24 from demo 2019
Give a complete, detailed answer
In task 20, it is required to show that the student can read the map. Here you need not be too lazy and describe each of the above sections, otherwise the answer will be incomplete.
For example, in the task for this map, the farmer needs to choose a site where the snow melts early and there is more sunlight in summer. It should also be convenient to take the crop to the cannery from it. In support of his answer, the student must give two reasons.
In a good answer, the student will write that plot #3 is on the south slope, but too far from the road, and plot #1 is close to the road, but on the north slope, so neither of them fully meet the requirements of the farmer. Plot #2 is on the south side of the mountain and has a highway nearby so the plants get enough light and the farmer can haul away the crop.
In what order to complete the tasks
At the OGE in geography, you should at least approximately navigate in the map of the country. The exam does not involve the student searching for Valdai or the Republic of Tatarstan for 15 minutes. I advise you to choose a strategy for working on the exam, depending on the level of card proficiency.
If the student is easily oriented in the geography of Russia, then it is better to complete the tasks in order. It will not be difficult for such a graduate, for example, to choose from the list a country with which Russia borders on the sea and on land.
If there is a problem with the map, then you should skip tasks of this type. You can return to them if there is time. It is better to focus on tasks 8-21, in which all the necessary information is contained in the question and its explanation.
What to remember
1. The physical and administrative map of the world must be studied in advance - there will be no time for a long search for rivers and cities during the exam.
2. Instead of a textbook, it is better to immediately take up demos. It is also useful to complete tasks from previous years in order to remember the location of geographical objects.
3. You can prepare for the exam on your own using the FIPI website and three atlases: for grades 7, 8 and 9. To do this, you need to study the codifier and specification of the OGE in geography, as well as carefully read the assessment criteria and examples of correct answers.
4. An experienced teacher will teach you how to act according to the algorithm and tell you in which atlas to look for information for each task.
5. If the student is not familiar with the geography of Russia, it is better to focus on tasks 8-21 that do not require knowledge of the map.

16.4 − (−9.8) = 16, 4 + 9.8 = 26.2 Sortavala
17 + 11.9 = 28.9 Vologda
19 + 11.6 = 30.6 Balakhna
