After receiving the benchmark scores, successful candidates must confirm their admission on the system no later than 5:30 p.m. on August 30. The time when schools will announce the benchmark scores has not been mentioned.

The Ministry requires schools not to organize admissions before August 22. Additional admissions will begin from September 1 until the end of the year.

The 2025 high school graduation exam will take place on June 26 and 27.

This year, the exam will be held simultaneously for students taking the 2006 General Education Program (those who have not graduated, or are taking the exam to get university admission scores) and students taking the 2018 General Education Program.

For candidates taking the exam according to the 2018 General Education Program, the exam content closely follows the content of the current General Education Program at the high school level, mainly the 12th grade program. The thinking level is 40% knowledge level, 30% understanding level and 30% application level.

The graduation score calculation is only 50% of the high school graduation exam score (previous years were 70%), the remaining 50% is calculated from the 3 years of high school study.
