Abstract: We identify the scaling region of a width O(n^{-1}) in the vicinity of the accumulation points $t=pm1$ of the real roots of a random Kac-like polynomial of large degree n. We argue that the density of the real roots in this region tends to a universal form shared by all polynomials with independent, identically distributed coefficients c_i, as long as the second moment sigma=E(c_i^2) is finite. In particular, we reveal a gradual (in contrast to the previously reported abrupt) and quite nontrivial suppression of the number of real roots for coefficients with a nonzero mean value mu_n = E(c_i) scaled as mu_nsim n^{-1/2}.
