Lyceum "Second School"
County
South-West Administrative District
Address
Fotieva, 18, metro station "Vorobyovy Gory".
Director
People's teacher of Russia Vladimir Ovchinnikov; founded the school in 1956, but after 15 years he was forced to leave it along with all his deputies - because of the brightness and free thinking of teachers and students, who began to cause fear among the party leadership. Then, following the leadership, many teachers left, but Ovchinnikov returned to Second School in 2000 and is still the director.
School profile
The school specializes in physics and mathematics. It uses elements of the university education system: lectures, seminars, practical work, tests, exams, reading special courses. For example, training course mathematics consists of the subjects "algebra and the beginning of analysis", "geometry", "mathematical technology" and "special mathematics". In addition to the main teacher, assistants work in specialized lessons, so that none of the students is left unattended.
Entrance tests
This is a lyceum, and there are no lower grades in it. They come here since the seventh grade. Three seventh and one eighth grade students are admitted to the school every year. To enter, you need to pass three credits. Two in mathematics: written, according to the usual school curriculum, and oral - no special knowledge is required here, the child must solve a logical problem, draw or build something. The third test in the Russian language. Everyone can try three times. Qualifications are held from March 22 to May 31. For those entering the seventh or eighth grade, the competition is about four people per place. But there is also an additional enrollment in the already working ninth and tenth grades (physics is added to three credits), in these classes the competition is already 20 people per place.
Teachers
There have always been very strong teachers - candidates and doctors of sciences from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Moscow State University, and the Landau Institute. Now 13 candidates of sciences and 2 doctors of sciences work in the lyceum. 12 teachers are holders of grants from the Dynasty Foundation, which supports talented teachers of physics, mathematics, chemistry and biology.
Quality of education - parental opinions
“If you missed something or did not understand, you come to the teacher after lessons, and everything is explained individually. But these are really “your problems” - no one will run after the child and explain something to him by force ”.
“I don’t notice any“ fixation on the stars ”. There are no such stars in the class where my son is studying. The class is quite even and strong. "
Foreign languages
From foreign languages in "Second School" only English is studied - but even here it has its own specifics. When conferences are held in the school on various subjects, teachers collect all the best reports and then hold a general conference on English language... Even representatives of the American and other embassies are invited. The topic of such a conference can be different - mathematics, physics, computer science, medicine ... If a child is interested in something, then they are allowed to choose any topic. One of the English teachers (also a lyceum graduate) is a doctor of physical and mathematical sciences. This is very important for the preparation of future reports at international conferences in physics and mathematics.
USE statistics
Every year, the school issues 100-point students for the Unified State Exam in mathematics, physics, Russian language and computer science. And the average score in these subjects is from 84 to 85.5.
University admissions statistics
100%; 70% goes to Moscow State University (Mechanics and Mathematics, Physics Department and Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics). The remaining 30% - at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, at the Faculty of Mathematics of the Higher School of Economics, at the Russian Academy National economy and public service. There are applicants to the Faculty of Geography and Geology.
Olympiad
Lyceum students consistently become winners and prize-winners of the All-Russian Olympiad for schoolchildren in mathematics, physics, astronomy, computer science and geography. 27 times the pupils of the school successfully performed at international Olympiads in mathematics, physics, astronomy and geography. Lyceum students Evgenia Alekseeva and Danila Baigushev became prize-winners of the Intel ISEF International Scientific and Technical Review (USA) - the most prestigious scientific competition for schoolchildren in the world.
The principle of the lyceum is not to prepare for the Olympiads on purpose. “We do not consider this to be the most important thing,” says Deputy Director Alexander Kovaldzhi. - And vice versa, we place more emphasis on educational and research work. Children take some independent task and they can work on it for a year or two. " The results are brilliant: last year 8 reports were published in the collections of reports of scientific conferences of professional mathematicians. This year, 10 reports have already been published.
Number of students in graduation classes
93 people are currently studying in four eleventh grades.
Sections, circles, additional classes
In addition to the main activities, there are many additional sections and circles - in physics and mathematics, journalism, biology, different types sports (basketball, volleyball, tennis, badminton). And in the summer near Odessa there is a Summer Mathematical School.
The lyceum includes two structural units: an evening multidisciplinary school, where children from all districts of Moscow and the Moscow region come from the second to the seventh grade once a week, and the All-Russian correspondence multidisciplinary school (VZMSh). More than 10,000 children from remote regions of Russia and neighboring countries study in it.
How much money parents donate annually
Parental fees are not accepted in Second School. The principle of the church box works (as much as possible). There are parents who have not passed a dime in all the years of their children's education.
How much does graduation cost
Graduation parties for the past two years have been held at the school itself. Parents handed in about 8,000 rubles each.
Equipment
Most of the classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboards. For students who have missed classes, the teacher will send lesson materials by e-mail.
Sports are also given great importance... Near the school - a stadium, a swimming pool. They are free for four schools. And starting next year, they will begin to build an extension to the school, where there will be another large gymnasium, new physics laboratories.
If you don’t know, the Second School Lyceum is one of the oldest and strongest educational points in Moscow today in terms of the level of teaching mathematics. The school has great traditions and rich history, high ratings and indisputable authority among tutors with an Olympiad specialization. It employs strong teachers, including those who graduated from my university. I have been preparing for the Second Lyceum more than once and always the level of the Olympiad requirements seemed to me quite high. With my very first student Rada Rudyak, who recently graduated from one very prestigious university in the United States, we quite easily entered the 6th grade of the Second School, but she did not want to study there because of too much emphasis, as it seemed to her parents, on mathematics. And the choice fell on school 57. After the significant conquest of the peaks of the Second Lyceum with the Rada, students from there periodically came to me. Either they already studied, or they needed a mathematics tutor for specialized preparation for the Olympiads. Therefore, I know firsthand all the subtleties of admission there. 
Enrollment in grade 7, for example, takes place in two stages:
The first is written testing of basic knowledge for the course of grades 5-6
The second is an oral exam on non-standard Olympiad problems for grades 4-7
The second exam can be taken in two attempts. At least that was the case in 2016.
With a successful collection of a passing score, you will only get into the group of candidates (this was the case last year) and I can still not take you for some reason, known only to the school itself (of the most probable - restrictions on the number of free places). In addition, there is a priority of the first attempt in the exam for the Olympiad problems. Therefore, for a competitive advantage, you need to know mathematics with a decent enough groundwork. A good tutor will squeeze the maximum out of the child's capabilities, and if the abilities do not allow him to reach the level of the Second School Lyceum, he will tell you about it no later than 3-4 lessons.
A little about the history of the Second School Lyceum
The school was built back in 1956 and in the same year was opened by its founder and director V.F. Ovchinnikov. At the beginning of its existence, it was the most ordinary school with number 2 and some very strong teachers. At a certain point, it was decided to create something fundamentally new on the basis of the school, keeping up with the times. Specialized classes with a radio engineering bias were opened and a stream of talented children poured into the school. Some of the teachers were unable to work with them at high level and left, and in their place came a stronger teaching staff. From that moment on, the school became truly mathematical and moved into the prestigious category.

I specifically included in my version more numbers than is usually the case for the Second Lyceum exam in order to cover all the main types of problems proposed in the past years.
In general, the tasks are quite within the power of the average student, if he does not fall into some of their traps. It is unlikely that a math tutor should dwell on basic problems in due course. If the situation still requires refining skills in school, then it is hardly worth spending money on a tutor and generally betting on mathematics in combination with the Second School Lyceum. 
Examples of Olympiad problems in mathematics for the Second Lyceum can be found on the school's official website.
In 2019, the oral tour traditionally came across 10 beautiful problems. Their examples with solutions can be viewed
