Sharing with VietNamNet, Ms. Duong Thi Thanh Thuy (Head of the Literature Group of Lomonosov Secondary and High School, Hanoi) commented that the 2024 Literature graduation exam has a moderate level of difficulty, challenging students in many different aspects from understanding, thinking to application. This ensures fairness and quality in the process of assessing the capacity of high school students.

The structure of the exam is clear, consisting of 2 parts: Reading Comprehension (3 points); Writing (7 points) with 2 questions on Social Essay and Literary Essay. This has been a stable structure in recent years, so students are not surprised and have been thoroughly prepared. The sample exam previously announced by the Ministry of Education and Training also follows this structure, so it is quite convenient for students during the exam.

In terms of difficulty and classification, the test uses a passage from the article The River and the Generations of Water by Nguyen Quang Thieu, which has profound content and rich language. The Reading Comprehension section has 4 questions. Questions 1-2 are at the recognition level - questions that almost any student can do; question 3 (understanding level) requires students to think to clearly show the effect of associating the flow of the river with the history of artistic creation; question 4 (application level) from the author's reflection, students draw lessons about lifestyle for themselves.

The questions in the exam require students to not only identify/extract information but also clearly demonstrate the effects of association and find lessons to apply to their own lives. This challenges students not only in reading comprehension but also in their ability to think logically, analyze and think deeply.

The Social Essay question requires students to present their thoughts on “the meaning of respecting individuality”. To complete this question, students must use the correct social essay writing skills: discuss the meaning of the issue, use life examples to illustrate, and draw their own lessons.

The Literary Essay question requires students to analyze an excerpt from the work "Dat Nuoc" by Nguyen Khoa Diem, from which they comment on the combination of the author's emotions and thoughts expressed in the poem excerpt. This is a work that students have certainly reviewed carefully, there are no surprises, so students can complete the test well. However, the topic requires students to not only have a solid grasp of knowledge about the author and the work; master the skills of analyzing the poem excerpt, but also truly understand the content and ideas of the work that the author conveys. This literary essay topic is highly differentiated.

Thus, the exam has an increasing level of difficulty. The questions are designed to test students' abilities in many different aspects, from basic knowledge to the ability to use and apply in practice.

With this exam, average students with a solid grasp of basic knowledge can achieve a score of 5.5-6.6, which is enough to qualify for graduation; good students can achieve a score of 7.0-7.5; excellent students can achieve a score of 8.0-8.5 or higher.

As planned, the Ministry of Education and Training will announce the results of the 2024 high school graduation exam at 8:00 a.m. on July 17, and consider recognizing high school graduation on July 19.
