In the 27-year journey of the Exam Consulting Program, this is the 10th consecutive year the program has reached students of Truong Dinh High School. Difficult questions about majors, admissions, future jobs... were asked by studious students to the organizing committee.

Quoting Miss Thien An, candidates are wondering whether to study cinema or medicine.

At the program, Master Nguyen Thanh Hai, Principal of the school, said that the number of 10 years of Exam Consulting coming to Truong Dinh High School is a beautiful number and in the future, the relationship between the program and this school will last forever.

"There is a folk song in the South that says, "No lamp is as tall as Chau Doc's lamp, no wind is as poisonous as Go Cong's wind." Go Cong is a land full of sun and wind, but the teachers in the advisory board and Thanh Nien Newspaper did not hesitate to come here early to be with Go Cong students. We would like to express our gratitude for this kindness...", Master Nguyen Thanh Hai confided.
