The VLOOKUP function in Excel allows you to rearrange data from one table into the corresponding cells of the second. Its English name is VLOOKUP.
Very convenient and often used. Because Manually matching ranges with tens of thousands of items is problematic.
How to use the VLOOKUP function in Excel
Let’s say that a certain quantity of materials has arrived at the warehouse of a container and packaging production company.
The cost of materials is in the price list. This is a separate table.
It is necessary to find out the cost of materials received at the warehouse. To do this, you need to substitute the price from the second table into the first. And through ordinary multiplication we will find what we are looking for.
Algorithm of actions:
Click OK. And then we “multiply” the function throughout the entire column: grab the lower right corner with the mouse and drag it down. We get the required result.
Now it’s not difficult to find the cost of materials: quantity * price.
The VLOOKUP function linked two tables. If the price changes, then the cost of materials received at the warehouse (arrived today) will also change. To avoid this, use Paste Special.
- Select the column with inserted prices.
- Right mouse button – “Copy”.
- Without removing the selection, right mouse button – “Paste Special”.
- Check the box next to “Values”. OK.
The formula in the cells will disappear. Only the values will remain.
Quickly compare two tables using VLOOKUP
The function helps to compare values in huge tables. Let's say the price has changed. We need to compare the old prices with the new prices.
Data presented in this way can be compared. Find numerical and percentage differences.
VLOOKUP function in Excel with multiple conditions
Until now, we have offered only one condition for analysis - the name of the material. In practice, it is often necessary to compare several ranges with data and select a value based on the 2nd, 3rd, etc. criteria.
Example table:
Suppose we need to find the price at which corrugated cardboard was brought from Vostok OJSC. You need to set two search conditions by material name and by supplier.
The matter is complicated by the fact that several items come from one supplier.
Let's look at the formula in detail:
- What are we looking for?
- Where are we looking?
- What data do we take?
VLOOKUP function and dropdown list
Let's say we have some data in the form of a drop-down list. In our example – “Materials”. It is necessary to configure the function so that when you select a name, the price appears.
First we'll make a dropdown list:
Now you need to make sure that when you select a certain material, the corresponding figure appears in the price column. Place the cursor in cell E9 (where the price should appear).
- Open the “Function Wizard” and select VLOOKUP.
- The first argument is “Search Value” - a cell with a drop-down list. Table – range with names of materials and prices. Column, respectively, 2. The function takes the following form: .
- Press ENTER and enjoy the result.
We change the material - the price changes:
This is how a drop-down list works in Excel with the VLOOKUP function. Everything happens automatically. Within a few seconds. Everything works quickly and efficiently. You just need to understand this function.
On monitoring the quality of education
All-Russian testing works (VPR) and Regional testing works (RPR) are not a state final certification. They are carried out by the educational organization independently, using uniform versions of tasks for the entire Russian Federation, developed at the federal level in strict accordance with the Federal State Educational Standard. These are diagnostic works for assessing the individual achievements of students.
VPR and RPR can be compared with control work traditionally carried out in past decades in many regions and individual educational organizations. Distinctive features of VPR are the unity of approaches to compiling options, carrying out the work itself and evaluating it, as well as the use of modern technologies to ensure almost simultaneous completion of work by students of all educational organizations of the Russian Federation.
VPR tasks are developed at the federal level, RPR tasks at the regional level.
What do VPR and RPR give?
Experts from Rosobnadzor report that such a knowledge test in school allows you to:
- Psychologically prepare students for exams in the senior class, in particular for the State Examination and the Unified State Exam.
- Determine the amount and level of knowledge that was acquired during the completed year of study.
- It will provide an incentive for systematic study throughout all years, in addition to grades 9 and 11.
- Disadvantages in training programs in tested subjects will not go unnoticed.
- Parents will be aware of the student's level of knowledge.
- It will provide an opportunity to improve the overall education system.

The abbreviation VPR (All-Russian Test Work) entered our lives in 2016. “Carry out a VPR”, “Prepare for a VPR”, “Cancel a VPR” sounds almost as familiar as “pass the Unified State Exam”. However, it does not prevent the reader from checking what he knows about VLOOKUP.
After the cancellation of final and intermediate exams (this happened in the 2000s), educational leaders lost the opportunity to make a continuous snapshot of schoolchildren’s knowledge. And only in 2016, in the wake of the success of the National Research on the Quality of Education, Russia decided to fill this gap with the help of uniform tests for the entire country.
Schools, municipalities and regional Departments of Education are recommended to analyze the results of the VPR and clarify whether the knowledge of schoolchildren corresponds to federal state standards.
Everything is fine, and everything is working. But this additional verification becomes a headache for teachers, parents and children.
NOT AN EXAM, BUT MONITORING
The All-Russian test is not an exam, but a monitoring that is carried out to determine the level of preparation of schoolchildren in all regions of Russia.
Therefore, VPR is regulated by Order of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation dated January 27, 2017 No. 69 “On monitoring the quality of education.”
This is the youngest of the monitoring studies in education. He is only two years old. But during this time, 95/% of all Russian schoolchildren have already taken part in it.
By the way, saying “pass the VPR” is not accurate. It would be more correct to “write VLOOKUP”.
MANDATORY OR NOT?
VPRs were conceived for voluntary testing of schoolchildren’s knowledge.
Today, VPR subjects are divided into compulsory and optional.
Optional VPR subjects are tested in the testing mode: they are chosen by the school itself to check the level of preparation of students.
In 2018, All-Russian testing is mandatory for grades 4 and 5, but not for grades 6 and 11.
But even in optional subjects, you cannot refuse to participate in the VPR: this decision is made not by the student or his parents, but by the school.
However, in reality, the school does not always choose its own subjects. The most common choice is school.
The decision is made by the regional Department or Ministry of Education. It is they who are tasked by Rosobrnadzor to form a representative sample of schools for conducting the VPR.
For example, in 2018, at least 60% of schools in each constituent entity of the Russian Federation must participate in the All-Russian test in the Russian language for grades 2 and 5.
Officials of regions and municipalities are instructed to include in this number 10% of urban and the same number of rural educational organizations with the highest and lowest results of the state final certification in grades 9 and 11.
Perhaps parents will ask: who needs the GIA results if second-graders write the VPR?
Simply based on the results of the OGE and the Unified State Exam, regional authorities determine the level of the school and its place in the regional or local ranking. If your school is ranked among the very best or, conversely, is chronically lagging behind, it may end up on the list of VPR participants in some subjects without even wanting it.
Unfortunately, last year, parents, teachers and directors complained that they were deciding for them (and, most importantly, at the last moment) whether their school would take part in the All-Russian testing work in a particular subject.
WHO COMPLETES VLOOKUP TASKS AND HOW?
This question worries both teachers and parents. Test items that are uniform for schools are compiled at the Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements (FIPI) taking into account the new state standards (FSES).
It is very difficult to obtain official permission to interview the writers of GIA or VPR assignments, even if you are well acquainted with these scientists.
The ideologists of the new type of monitoring say that the benchmark for them was the tasks of the comparative international study PISA, in which schoolchildren from Russia failed at least twice.
PISA questions focus on the practical application of school knowledge in real-life situations. Russian specialists who develop tasks for VPR also strive for this international “bar.”
However, the versions of the All-Russian test works for high school also include traditional tasks that experienced teachers have already encountered in the demo versions of the OGE and the Unified State Exam.
“In the demo versions of the VPR, I came across a lot of tasks from the OGE for the 9th grade,” says Ksenia Gennadievna Pudovkina, a teacher of geography and biology at school No. 2 in the city of Sim, Ashinsky district, Chelyabinsk region. “VPR in my subject meet federal standards, so many tasks test not knowledge, but the ability to work with information.”
“If a subject was taught in the system from the 5th to the 11th grades, the student is able to write a VPR on it,” many teachers believe. “The tasks of the All-Russian test work are of a basic level, no subtleties are used in them.”
“- My children and I solved the demo version of VPR - and no one in the class scored a bad grade. Do the same!”, others advise.
WHICH SUBJECTS OF VPR ARE CONSIDERED THE MOST DIFFICULT: PAY ATTENTION!
Russian language:
Last year, Russian language teachers who were preparing children for the federal test found higher-level questions in the assignments for grade 5 - on topics from grades 6 and 7 that the students had not yet taken.
If you are not confident in the children’s knowledge, it is better to open the demo version of VPR on the FIPI website and get acquainted with the tasks. The Russian language is a subject that never hurts to study.
Biology:
Some teachers, during the All-Russian test in biology for grade 5, found in the VPR several tasks on topics that were covered only in textbooks for grades 6 and even 7.
“After this test in biology, the children were very worried,” said one of the mothers. “Some of my daughter’s classmates were one point short of a school C, and some were two points short of a B.” This is a lot of stress for them. And in fact, almost all the VPR tasks that were given to our children were NOT according to the 5th grade curriculum.”
“Currently there is no unified biology program for grade 5,” Rosobrnadzor responded to a request from teachers of this subject. “In general educational organizations of the Russian Federation, ... work programs of 12 different teams of authors can be used.”
However, if your school has already taken the VPR in biology, it means that you are familiar with the problem and have drawn conclusions.
Story:
The second difficult subject of the All-Russian test work was history.
“The results of the VPR in history showed that schoolchildren in grades 5 and 11 do not know enough about the history of their native land and famous historical figures, they do not know how to establish cause-and-effect relationships between historical events and analyze different types of sources of historical information,” said the head of Rosobrnadzor Sergei Kravtsov.
On the history course for grade 5, there were indeed questions about the history of our native land. One teacher from a small town, for example, analyzed VPR training tasks and calculated that children would be asked a question about their famous fellow countrymen. His class learned the answer in advance (the famous fellow countryman had only one). And at the VPR, the class was asked to name a historical event related to their small homeland. There is no need to explain what the fifth graders wrote instead. The confusion was complete, and the school discussed for a long time whether it was possible to reformulate the VPR question so as not to give the whole class low scores.
Geography:
This year, some students may have difficulties with the geography test: the school must decide for itself whether it will be taken in 10th or 11th grade.
By the way, she can solve it at the last moment (see above).
So that children don’t get nervous, here is a free VPR geography simulator that opens conveniently and gives hints:
HOW ARE THE GRADES ASSIGNED FOR VPR?
“VPR is not only uniform measures and the same tasks that children do all over the country, it is also the same assessment criteria,” emphasizes Sergei Stanchenko, head of the monitoring research project NIKO (National Research on the Quality of Education), which became the predecessors of VPR.
The federal coordinator of the VPR is Rosobrnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision in Education and Science). It should not be confused with FIPI (Federal Institute of Pedagogical Measurements), which compiles assignments for VPR.
Rosobrnadzor administers the VPR: it appoints regional coordinators of the All-Russian verification work. They become the Departments and Ministries of Education of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, which form a list of municipal coordinators of the VPR in their constituent entities of the Russian Federation.
Grades for educational tasks are assigned to each student according to a special scale developed by Rosobrnadzor of the Russian Federation.
Then the obtained VPR points are converted into school grades.
If the subject is optional (the school itself chose it in order to test the students’ knowledge), the transfer to grades is carried out at the discretion of the teachers themselves.
Please note: if in your region it has been decided to take into account grades for CDF in the final certification, then they should be taken into account for the entire class, and not for individual students.
It can’t be that someone’s grade for CDF will be credited and put in the journal, but not the other children in the class.
If a CD subject is considered compulsory, it is also assessed by school teachers. But in this case, they must assign points strictly according to the criteria developed by Rosobrnadzor.
These results are entered into electronic form and, no later than two days later, are uploaded through the school’s personal account on the All-Russian Testing Works portal.
WHAT CAN YOU GET A D IN VPR?
Let's see what you can get a bad mark for on the All-Russian test in mathematics in the 4th grade.
If a student scores from 0 to 5 points for his work, his knowledge is considered unsatisfactory. Scored 6-9 points - you get a C, 10-12 - a B, 13-18 points - rejoice, parents and teachers, you have an excellent student!
Russian language in 4th grade is assessed differently. Anyone who scores less than 13 points gets a two, 14-23 points gets a three, 24-32 points gets a four, 33-38 points gets a five.
This may surprise and disappoint many parents who were convinced: if the test is federal, then the VPR assignments should be checked in Moscow.
No, the VPR test takes place on site, at school, immediately after students hand in their work. This is not done by the computer, but by the teachers themselves.
“We recommend that our colleagues collectively check several VPR papers,” Sergei Stanchenko explains the verification algorithm, “see what mistakes the students made in them, and then agree among themselves how to evaluate the results in accordance with federal criteria.”
Teachers can familiarize themselves with the regulations for conducting VPR and samples of test work on the official website http://vpr.statgrad.org/
IT'S NORMAL TO WORRY
All-Russian test papers are written on the same day for the entire country. Moreover: even at the same time.
For VPR in the Russian language in grades 2 and 5, it is recommended, for example, to leave lessons 2-3 in the schedule.
All this imposes a certain responsibility on the school administration.
And we need to prepare for the fact that the whole school will be nervous: it’s normal for the whole country to do the same work at the same time.
Some explain to children this way:
“When we wrote the RONO test as children, we were also worried. But for the test we were given a mark in the class register, and the school will simply take your grades into account.”
Some teenagers object:
“Then why try if they don’t put marks on the VPR”?
The answer to this is simple: the VPR scores will be announced in front of the whole class. And this means that those who took the federal test lightly will not have the most pleasant moments.
Plus, based on the results of the VPR, all unsuccessful students may be assigned additional classes.
Do you need this? Same thing.
HOW TO WRITE A VLOOKUP EXCELLENT?
Education leaders claim that it is easy to complete all VPR tasks. You just need to stay in class and don’t skip school.
Teachers who have studied demo versions of VPR in their subject do not always agree with this. They say that only a few students will be able to achieve high scores on federal tests without preparation.
This fact is indirectly recognized by Rosobrnadzor itself, when NOT recommended for teachers (quote):
- specially prepare the class for the implementation of VPR buildings,
- do this during the holidays or after school,
- put grades for the federal test in the journal,
- avoid elements of training for VPR tasks.
How long does it take to prepare for the VPR?
It all depends on the textbook in which the subject is taught, on the class and on the teacher.
“- With children, of course, you will have to repeat everything before the VPR. It took me and my motivated students about three lessons,” says Evgenia Vladimirovna Zhinkina, a physics teacher at school No. 32 with in-depth study of the English language in Ozersk, Chelyabinsk region.

VPR IN PRIMARY SCHOOL
In 2nd grades they will take the Russian language, in 4th grades they will take the VPR in the Russian language (dictation and tests), mathematics and the subject “The World around us”. Time to solve problems: 45 minutes
VPR IN BASIC SCHOOL
In the 5th grade, students are expected to study in mathematics, biology, history and the Russian language (twice - in October and April). Since 2018, a CD in history has been added to the mandatory CD in the Russian language. Fifth graders complete assignments for 60 minutes
In the 6th grade, students will have to take the test in the testing mode in the Russian language, mathematics, history, social studies, biology and geography. For 2018, school participation in the VPR for 6th grades is not mandatory. An educational organization can choose the subject in which it would like to conduct a control cross-section of knowledge.
VPR FOR HIGH SCHOOL
In the 10th grade, students will take the VPR in chemistry and biology. In 11th grade - biology, foreign languages, history, chemistry, geography and physics. VPR is chosen by those graduates who do not pass the specialized Unified State Examination in this subject. Schools can choose to conduct a course in geography in the 10th or 11th grade. The time for solving problems with VPR for eleventh graders is 90 minutes.
Information and technological support for the VPR is provided on the website
Not long ago, the All-Russian Test Works (VPR) were introduced into practice - control activities, the main purpose of which is to assess the subject knowledge of students in accordance with the Federal State Education Standard. Testing work is organized at the regional or individual school level, but their assessment is carried out on the basis of uniform criteria developed according to the all-Russian standard.
Despite the fact that the VPR is not the final certification of students or teachers, this type of control activities makes both of them nervous. The results of checking the work become the basis for reforming school curricula and improving methodological approaches to teaching.
If in one of the schools the students do not cope well with the proposed tasks, then troubles will arise not only for them, but also for the teachers and even the management of the educational institution. Gaps in knowledge for the majority of students are a strong negative indicator that characterizes the level of training in a particular school. Well, let's find out how the VPR will take place in 2018 in order to prepare in advance for this test.
VPR in Russian educational practice
Since 2016, CDFs have become a widespread phenomenon in Russian schools, covering about 40 thousand (95%) educational institutions and 3 million students, 5% of whom, unfortunately, demonstrated an unsatisfactory level of knowledge. An innovation in recent years is that some federal testing tests have received the status of mandatory. It is quite natural that such news became stressful for teachers, students and parents.
Based on the results of the test, it will be concluded whether the child is well prepared for studying in secondary school, whether the teacher working with the students was successful, and whether the students will be able to cope with the stress that they will experience in the near future when passing both 9th and 11th th class. If we talk about specific classes and subjects, the test lists include:
- for 2nd grade - Russian;
- for 4th grade - schoolchildren will have to write tests in mathematics, the Russian language (including dictation and tests) and the world around them. In 2018, all of the listed examinations will most likely receive the status of compulsory (unlike previous years, when the school could choose one or more subjects to test the knowledge of primary school students);
- for 5th grades - the list of VPR includes mathematics, biology, history and the Russian language, and they promise to measure knowledge in the latter subject twice (in October and April). So far, only the native language is on the list of mandatory ones, but from 2018 they promise to also introduce history;
- for 6th grades - VPR in the Russian language, mathematics, history, social studies, biology and geography are included in the list, but have not yet been approved as mandatory. Consequently, schools will be able to choose the subject themselves and determine their participation in the process of writing the VPR;
- for 10th grades - the approved list contains CVs in chemistry and biology;
- for 11 grades - the list of possible CDFs includes biology, foreign languages, history, chemistry, geography and physics. At the moment, schools have the opportunity to choose in which grade (tenth or eleventh) a test of knowledge in geography will be carried out, since this subject is no longer studied in the final year of school.
Conducting VPR in 2018
The control measurement of knowledge is organized as follows:
- VPR for each subject is carried out on a strictly designated day;
- the time regulations provide that 4th grade students will work on assignments for 45 minutes, fifth graders - 60 minutes, and graduates - 90 minutes;
- Students are strictly prohibited from using educational literature while writing work.
The duration of testing directly depends on the age of the students Separately, we note the fact that the grades received for the CD are not taken into account when assigning final grades in subjects and do not affect the possibility of obtaining a certificate.
How do VR scores translate into grades?
The points scored by graduating class students for CD are translated into assessments by the management of each specific school according to an individually drawn up scheme. For compulsory subjects for which knowledge is measured in the 4th and 5th grades, Rosobrnadzor has developed a unified criteria approach:
- when assessing mathematics in the 4th grade, the mark “two” is given for 0-5 points, “three” for 6-9 points, “four” for 10-12 points, “five” for 13-18 points;
- when assessing the Russian language in the 4th grade, a grade of “two” is given for 0-13 points, “three” for 14-23 points, “four” for 24-32 points, “five” for 33-38 points;
- in the subject “the world around us” for 4th grade, a grade of “two” is given for 0-7 points, “three” for 8-17 points, “four” for 18-25 points, “five” for 26-31 score;
- Russian language for the 5th grade is assessed as follows: a score of “two” is given for 0-17 points, “three” for 18-28 points, “four” for 29-38 points, “five” for 39-45 points;
- when assessing mathematics in the 5th grade, a grade of “two” is given for 0-6 points, “three” for 7-10 points, “four” for 11-14 points, “five” for 15-20 points;
- in the subject “biology” for grade 5, a grade of “two” is given for 0-9 points, “three” for 10-13 points, “four” for 14-18 points, “five” for 19-22 points;
- History points for 5th grade are distributed as follows: a grade of “two” will be given for 0-3 points, “three” for 4-7 points, “four” for 8-11 points, “five” for 12 -15 points.
Criticism of VPR
Graduates and their parents were greatly indignant at last year’s news that they were urgently subjected to the introduction of educational training in five school disciplines at once. Tests were introduced into the schedule literally before taking the Unified State Exam, which caused panic - after all, students devoted all their time and attention to subjects whose certificates were necessary for. The only thing that saved the Ministry of Education from mass protests was the news that the VPR could be carried out on a voluntary basis.
Another point that is regularly criticized is the fact that CDFs are not always compiled according to textbooks recommended by the Ministry of Education. Thus, when compiling tests in biology for fifth-grade students, the ticket included assignments on topics that in most Russian schools are taught in the sixth or even seventh grade!
Unfortunately, some of the VPR tasks do not correspond to the curriculum of school textbooks Teachers who noticed this mistake in the demo version of the VPR wrote to the reception office of Rosobrnadzor, to which they received the following answer: in the country there is no single standard for each class, so the test materials include assignments from different teams of authors (and there are as many as twelve of them in the Russian Federation) with different approaches to presenting the subject.
Russian language teachers also faced the same difficulties. That is why school teaching staff have to urgently change the student training program in order to have time to prepare for passing the VPR. Naturally, jumping from one topic to another is unlikely to have a good effect on the final level of students’ knowledge. And the implementation of on-site assessments led to the emergence of another problem - the final assessment of schoolchildren’s knowledge is not always objective.
As an inspection of mathematics work has shown, in non-core schools the results of all-Russian tests are much higher than in specialized gymnasiums or lyceums. This is because the teachers, afraid of failing results, helped their students solve the problems. The same pattern was observed in 2017 in the Russian language - high grades were recorded in schools in which graduates did not shine at all with their Unified State Exam or Unified State Exam results.
Schedule for the educational program in the 2017-2018 academic year
According to a document prepared by specialists from Rosobrnadzor, in the first semester, educational training will take place on the following dates:
- 2nd grade students will write a VPR in the Russian language on 10/12/2017;
- 5th grade students will write a VPR in the Russian language on October 26, 2017.
In the second semester, each class also has its own days for writing VPR.
Familiarize yourself with the VPR schedule so you can prepare for them in time. VPR-2018 schedule for 4th grade
The following dates are allocated for 4th grade students:
- for the Russian language – 04/17/2018 (dictation) and 04/19/2018 (test part);
- for mathematics – 04/24/2018;
- for the outside world – 04/26/2018.
VPR-2018 schedule for 5th grade
Schoolchildren studying in 5th grade will write a VPR on the following dates:
- Russian language – 04/17/2018;
- mathematics – 04/19/2018;
- history – 04/24/2018;
- biology – 04/26/2018.
VPR-2018 schedule for 6th grade
6th grade students were given the following dates in the draft schedule.
All-Russian tests as a form of testing the knowledge of school students were first carried out in 2015 - then they were written by fourth-graders. These testing works are aimed at developing a unified educational space in the country and creating uniform educational standards: the assessment criteria are also the same for the entire Russian Federation. Each school is sent criteria that are the same for the entire territory of the state, and in accordance with them, the work of schoolchildren is checked.
VPR are not an analogue of the Unified State Exam, since they were created for a completely different purpose. That is, the grade received by the student is not the final grade for the entire period of primary school and does not play a decisive role in the future fate and educational activities of the child.
The results for the student’s promotion to the next grade are also do not affect. But if a student received a 4 or 5, the teacher can use it as an indicator of knowledge and, in the event of a controversial grade in a quarter/trimester, give a higher score.
Where is it carried out and tested?
VPRs are carried out at school and checked here - unlike the Unified State Exam, work is not taken outside the educational organization for verification. However, the results may be used to determine the final grade for the subject if such a decision is made by the school management. The work is checked on the same day - the school is obliged to transfer its results to the unified federal collection form a maximum of 24 hours after they are completed.
What can you use on VPR?
You are not allowed to use your phone during the exam, but you may have one with you. The state does not provide a general standard for what kind of writing instruments the work is written with - unlike the final certification works of the OGE and OGE, where you can only use black pens. But, since all-Russian testing is carried out by the school, the decision on this issue is made by its leadership - they may tell you to write with a pen, or they may allow you to use a pencil.
However, there is still one general limitation: during the VPR, it is prohibited to use dictionaries, textbooks, notebooks, and reference materials. You can have drafts - the entries made in them are not checked or evaluated.
How long does VPR last and when is it performed?
VPRs are completed during one lesson - forty-five minutes. In fact, this is an ordinary test, the same as those that are always regularly carried out in schools. The only difference from traditional tests is that the tasks and the criteria for checking them are all-Russian. They can be held both in spring and autumn. If the child was sick and missed writing the work, then there is no need to write the work at another time.
Who compiles the VPR?
Options for work are compiled by qualified specialists and reflect those aspects of the curriculum that are of greatest importance for general education training.
