Ms. Nguyen Chuyen said that her child taking the exam at the National Economics University was also taken out of the exam 7 minutes early. Because she was taken out of the exam early, she did not have time to carefully review the exam she had done.
"My child's exam at the Banking Academy also had a system crash and had to submit his exam early, which happened in some exam rooms. My child was sad because he did well on the exam, but if he had to retake the exam, he would have to spend a lot of time studying and there are many other important exams," a parent wrote.
