This morning, more than a million candidates nationwide learned their high school graduation exam results. Among them, hundreds of thousands of candidates were admitted early based on their transcripts or ability test scores. So what will candidates do with these exam results?

Candidates at the high school graduation exam

From the candidates' exam results and the score distribution of the subjects, university representatives will make assessments, analyze and predict the floor scores and standard scores in the high school graduation exam scoring method.

At the same time, experts will have important advice on using high school graduation exam scores for admission. For example, if a candidate has been admitted early and the graduation exam score is not as expected, should this score be used for further admission? Similarly, if the exam score is higher than expected, what should the candidate do?

In particular, if using high school graduation exam scores for admission on the system while previously being admitted early, how should candidates arrange their wishes in order to be admitted to their favorite major and school, or not lose all admission opportunities?

Will the floor score increase or decrease?

Dr. Nguyen Van Kha, Deputy Director of Admissions and Communications Center, Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade

Dr. Nguyen Van Kha, Deputy Director of the Admissions and Communications Center of Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade, said that the floor score and the benchmark score can be the same or different depending on the school. In which, the floor score is the minimum score to receive applications, but the benchmark score depends on the quota and the number of applications submitted to determine the benchmark score. Some majors will have the same benchmark score as the floor score, but some majors will have it much higher. Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry and Trade is expected to not change much in the floor score this year.

Master Dinh Cong Vien Phuong, Deputy Director of the Admissions Consulting Center of Van Hien University, said that in previous years, the school's floor score was usually 15 or higher, and this year the floor score is expected to not change much. The standard score for each major will depend on the actual situation of candidates submitting applications, like last year some majors had up to 23-24 points.

Mr. Vu Quang Huy, Deputy Director of the Admissions Consulting Center of Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, commented that this year the floor score is not expected to change much. In 2023, the floor score for the school's majors is from 16-19. Some majors of the school with quite high benchmark scores last year are expected to be similar this year, such as: multimedia communications, public relations, information technology, graphic design, etc.

Which method has higher chances of being accepted?

Duong Vu Hiep (Binh Tan District, Ho Chi Minh City) asked: "I plan to apply for the tourism and travel service management major at Van Hien University. With 19 points in block A, do I have a chance to pass? Do I need to put this new wish first or put the major that was admitted early first?". Master Dinh Cong Vien Phuong advised that last year, the university's tourism and travel service management major required 23 points, equal to the high school graduation exam score. Therefore, with a score of 19, candidates need to add the wish that was admitted early to be safe.

Similarly, Duong Kieu Nhu (Long An) asked: ''I plan to apply for the public relations major at Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology with a score of 20 in block C, what are my chances of passing?'' Mr. Vu Quang Huy said: ''This year, the school will enroll over 13,000 students, of which 45% will be based on high school graduation exam scores. For the public relations major, last year, candidates who scored 18 points were admitted based on their graduation exam scores. But this year it is very difficult to answer this question because it depends on the number of candidates registering in the future. However, public relations is one of the three majors that most candidates are interested in, so even if the exam score is higher than last year's standard score, it is still advisable to take advantage of the early admission method. Currently, the school is still accepting applications based on the high school transcript review method.''
