During the course of completing the tasks, foreign students demonstrated knowledge in various fields of Russian studies (phonetics, vocabulary, phraseology, grammar), as well as knowledge of the norms of the Russian language and the ability to solve communicative tasks. The jury determined the winners based on the totality of points obtained from the results of three tests.
