To prepare for the difficult 10th grade entrance exam, many students have registered for many mock exams to test and evaluate their abilities, as well as practice under pressure. Experts recommend paying attention to reviewing in accordance with the requirements of the 2018 General Education Program as well as the new high school admission regulations.
As scheduled, every January, schools begin the trial exam season. In Hanoi, Luong The Vinh Secondary and High School (Cau Giay campus) is one of the first units to organize a trial exam for grade 10 students. Specifically, the school organized a trial exam for 3 subjects: Math, Literature, English on January 5, 2025. Participants are grade 9 students of the school and grade 9 students across the city. The purpose of the trial exam is to help students evaluate their learning process, thereby having a suitable study and review plan, ready for the official exam.
In addition to Luong The Vinh Secondary and High School, a number of cultural training centers in Hanoi are also actively organizing trial exams for students with the third subject besides Math and Literature, mostly English. Many schools with many years of experience in organizing trial exams such as the High School for the Gifted in Natural Sciences (University of Natural Sciences, Vietnam National University, Hanoi), the High School for the Gifted in Foreign Languages (Hanoi National University of Education) always attract a large number of candidates to register voluntarily. Up to this point, there has been no specific information about the school's trial exams with a specific time. However, with the experience in organizing and grading exams, many candidates are looking forward to these exams taking place soon to have the opportunity to test themselves and practice steadily...
One issue for the units organizing the mock exam this year is that in the first year of the exam according to the 2018 General Education Program with many new points in question structure and question making, schools also need to pay attention to closely follow the sample exam, have the right direction for candidates in determining the review of necessary knowledge and skills. Notably, there are 2 new types of multiple choice tests being applied: short answer tests and true-false tests. The Literature exam will not use materials in textbooks to overcome the situation of memorizing or copying the content of available documents.
For students, registering for mock exams is an opportunity to rub shoulders and get used to the pressure of the 10th grade entrance exam, but education experts also recommend choosing suitable exams to participate in. Because mock exams are real pressure. If schools make mock exams too difficult, it can affect students' learning psychology, causing confusion and anxiety, and vice versa, if they are too easy, it can lead to subjectivity, laxity, and negligence in the final stage. Besides, there are cases where some candidates, although not fully prepared for the exam, still register for mock exams, so the results do not fully reflect their abilities. Therefore, the advice for candidates and parents is not to be impatient when seeing many students around registering for mock exams, but you yourself need to practice and be ready before registering for the exam. The number of times you take the exam also needs to be considered because if it is too much, it will waste time, money, and delay your review...
Currently, the Ministry of Education and Training has finalized the regulations for grade 10 admission and Ho Chi Minh City is the first locality to announce that the third exam subject for grade 10 in the 2025-2026 school year is English. This announcement is not surprising because over the past time, although there have been many options for grade 10 admission proposed in the Draft Circular on promulgating the Regulations on Secondary School Admission and High School Admission, Ho Chi Minh City has always consistently proposed English as the third exam subject, without random drawing. The wish of students, parents and schools across the country is also that localities soon announce the third exam subject, without having to wait until March 31 to have a proactive review and training plan.
