Math · Grade 8 · Russian curriculum
Grade 8 is quadratic equations, square roots, inequalities and similar triangles. After this year the OGE exam is just one step away, and topics left with gaps start to show on every test.
Scope of preparation
Algebra pulls far ahead — 153 solution methods, half of the year’s entire curriculum. Geometry doubles compared with grade 7, and coordinates appear.
The numbers are counted across the topics available in grade 8: the year’s curriculum plus everything it builds on. A solution method can belong to several sections at once, so the section values should not be added up into a total.
expressions, equations, inequalities, transforming expressions
shapes, areas, congruence and similarity criteria, proofs
graphs, properties, reading a relationship from a picture
percentages, fractions, proportions, motion and work problems
listing all the options, the probability of an event
divisibility, fractions, exponents, properties of numbers
tables, charts, the mean
coordinates, vectors, distances
the logic of statements and what counts as a proof
This year’s topics
29 topics are introduced in grade 8 itself. Each one builds on what came before — that is why the count above shows 351 solution methods: it also includes the necessary foundation from earlier years.
The list comes from the platform’s knowledge base rather than being written for the website: the lessons, which are in Russian, follow these same topics.
You can learn the definitions and rules from these topics in the free “Build the Definition” study tool (in Russian).
What it costs
Base helps with the current school curriculum; Exam adds preparation for the OGE and EGE — Russia’s state exams after grades 9 and 11.

Lessons, exercises and the tutor’s explanations on the platform are in Russian and follow the Russian school curriculum. The platform interface is available in English.
Almost never with quadratic equations themselves. They build on the square root, factoring and the special product formulas from grade 7. The knowledge check will show which of these supports has given way and will start from it.
With a knowledge check. It is done once and, instead of a grade, shows a list of topics that still have gaps — including those left over from earlier years. The plan is then built around them.
Go back to it rather than move on. Topics are connected: the next one can’t be mastered until the previous one is. The platform finds the earliest topic that still has a gap and starts from there, not from the current textbook section.
One lesson is about ten minutes. On a regular day, one or two are enough. There’s no rigid schedule: the plan adapts to what has already been covered.
For some it will, for others it won’t. The platform covers what a tutor usually doesn’t have enough hours for: it looks for the cause of the mistake, keeps the topics in order and explains the same thing as many times as needed. If having a real person alongside matters to the student, one doesn’t get in the way of the other.
If the accounts are linked — sessions, completed topics and progress through the plan. There are no grades or reports of failures there.
It shows which topics are holding the student back in grade 8 — including those left over from earlier years — and builds a plan around exactly those.
