Ho Chi Minh City students start registering for 10th grade from May 2

The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training has just issued a time frame for preparing and organizing enrollment for the first grade classes of the 2025-2026 school year, the 10th grade entrance exam and the 2025 high school graduation exam.

Accordingly, from 3:00 p.m. on May 2, parents and students can access the 10th grade admission system at ts10.hcm.edu.vn to register their wishes. This year's 10th grade admission registration is 100% online.

The registration period will end at 5:00 p.m. on May 10. Secondary schools will enter data for secondary school graduation, priority (if any) and support candidates in registering if any problems occur.

Each student will have a maximum of 8 grade 10 wishes, including 3 regular grade 10 wishes, 2 specialized grade 10 wishes, and 3 integrated grade 10 wishes.

After students complete their registration, it is expected that on May 14, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training will announce the number of students who registered their initial wishes and if needed, students can change their wishes until 5:00 p.m. on May 19.

The 10th grade exam in Ho Chi Minh City takes place on June 6-7. Candidates will take three subjects: Math, Literature, and Foreign Language. The time for the Math and Literature tests is 120 minutes, and the Foreign Language test is 90 minutes. If students register for specialized schools, they will take an additional specialized subject test (150 minutes). This year, all three subjects, Math, Literature, and Foreign Language, are scored with a coefficient of 1.

The 10th grade admission process is carried out in 2 phases. In phase 1, students register for 3 priority wishes 1, 2, 3 to take the entrance exam to grade 10 of high schools.

Phase 2 will depend on the actual application submission situation and the needs of high schools. The Department will decide on additional enrollment and issue written instructions to ensure the rights of candidates, on the basis of recruiting enough quotas for schools that are still lacking. Each student can register for 3 wishes, arranged in order of priority from high to low (wish 1, 2, 3). If they are admitted to a wish, they must study in that wish and cannot change their wish.

This year, Ho Chi Minh City will enroll 70,070 students in public grade 10, reaching 79% of the expected number of students graduating from grade 9 (88,210).
