The 2024 high school graduation exam in literature marks an important transition from the 2006 general education program to the new 2018 general education program.
Ms. Duong Thi Thanh Thuy - Head of the Literature Group, Lomonosov Secondary and High School, Hanoi - commented: "This exam is not only the last chance to evaluate and reflect students' abilities according to the 2006 general education program, but also an important preparation step for the transition to the new program.

Exam design needs to be comprehensive and inclusive to ensure the relevance and quality of education."
Regarding this year's essay, Ms. Thuy said that the structure of the exam was clear and stable in recent years, so students were not surprised and were thoroughly prepared. The sample exam published by the Ministry of Education and Training on March 22 also followed this structure, so it was quite convenient for students during the exam.
However, according to Ms. Thuy, the difficulty and classification of the test is higher than in 2023.

The test uses a reading passage from the article "The River and Generations of Water" by Nguyen Quang Thieu, with profound content and rich language.
The Reading Comprehension section has 4 questions. Questions 1 and 2 are at the recognition level, questions that almost any student can do.
Question 3 (comprehension level) requires students to think to clearly show the effect of associating the flow of the river with the history of artistic creation.
Sentence 4 (level of application) from the author's reflection, students draw lessons about lifestyle for themselves.
The questions in the exam require students not only to identify and extract information but also to clearly state 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, analytically and critically.
The social argumentative essay question requires students to present their thoughts on "the meaning of respecting individuality". To complete this question, students must use the correct social argumentative essay writing skills: discuss the meaning of the issue, use life examples to illustrate, and draw their own lessons.
The literary essay requires students to analyze an excerpt from the work "Country" by Nguyen Khoa Diem, from which they can comment on the combination of Nguyen Khoa Diem's emotions and thoughts expressed in the poetic excerpt.
"This is a work that students must have carefully reviewed, there are no surprises so students can complete the test well.
However, the topic requires students not only to have a solid grasp of knowledge about the author and the work, and to be proficient in analyzing poetic excerpts, but also to truly understand the ideological content of the work that the author conveys.
"This literary essay topic is highly differentiated," Ms. Thuy commented.

Ms. Thuy also predicted the score range: Average students with a solid grasp of basic knowledge can achieve a score of 5.5-6.6, enough to be considered for graduation. Good students can achieve a score of 7-7.5. Excellent students can achieve a score of 8-8.5 or higher.
Sharing the same prediction, Ms. Nguyen Thi Quynh Anh - a literature teacher at Tuyensinh247 commented: "Average students can achieve 5-6 points, good students can achieve 7 points, 8.5 points or higher can clearly classify excellent students.
According to Ms. Quynh Anh, the social argument is not too difficult. Students just need to do it in the right amount, pay attention to emphasizing the meaning of respecting individuality, cite appropriate evidence, and have deep antitheses and connections.
