Of the 45 graduating valedictorians, 35 achieved excellent results, and many students had almost perfect graduation scores.

Notably, among the 88 valedictorians this year, there are 2 students who are "double" valedictorians, being both the valedictorian of admission and the valedictorian of graduation, namely Vu Thanh Loc (Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy) and Nguyen Huu Hung (University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Ho Chi Minh City National University).

"For me, this program not only brings pride and happiness, but also recognition for my efforts in the past time, and is also a motivation for me in the future," Quach Hoai Phuong, valedictorian of Ho Chi Minh City University of Economics, emotionally shared.
