High school graduation exam schedule remains unchanged, Hanoi 'finalizes' 10th grade exam time

Accordingly, this year's non-specialized high school entrance exam begins on June 7 with literature in the morning and foreign language in the afternoon. On the morning of June 8, candidates will take the math test.

On June 6, the examination council at the examination sites met to study the regulations for candidates and teachers; announced the exam registration board for candidates to check and report errors to the examination council at the examination sites.

June 7-8: Exams for non-specialized subjects. Math and literature exams are in essay format, with a duration of 120 minutes. Foreign language exams are in multiple-choice format, with a duration of 60 minutes.

The specific exam schedule is as follows:

On April 18, educational institutions collected application forms for admission to grade 10 high school, collected and checked students' direct admission application files; completed the issuance of student codes and passwords to grade 9 students.

On April 21, educational institutions in the area submit student registration forms; documents and lists of students registering for direct admission to the Department of Education and Training. On April 26-29, students check the list of candidates at educational institutions, recheck all personal information, registration wishes and priority points; if there are any errors, request the school to promptly correct them.

No later than May 15, the Department of Education and Training will announce the number of students applying to each high school at the Departments of Education and Training.

Thus, the 10th grade entrance exam schedule in Hanoi remains as originally planned because the Ministry of Education and Training does not change the high school graduation exam schedule.

Previously, the Hanoi Department of Education and Training and a number of localities sent a document requesting the Ministry of Education and Training to adjust the high school graduation exam schedule in 2025 and stated: "Based on the schedule of the high school graduation exam in 2025, the Hanoi Department of Education and Training advised the City People's Committee to adjust the exam and admission plan for grade 10 high school in the 2025-2026 school year to ensure suitability and effectiveness."

However, on March 20, the Ministry of Education and Training officially responded in writing, affirming that it would maintain the high school graduation exam schedule stated in the school year schedule.
