TSA thinking assessment test structure is suitable for the new general education program

The TSA exam structure remains the same as in 2023 and 2024, designed in accordance with the new general education program of the Ministry of Education and Training.

Accordingly, the test consists of 3 parts: mathematical thinking (60 minutes), reading comprehension (30 minutes) and scientific thinking/problem solving (60 minutes). These are 3 independent parts.

The test questions will focus on assessing the candidate's thinking ability in each section, not directly testing the knowledge of any subject. The test will be in the form of multiple choice tests on computers, and the test results will be valid for 2 years to serve the university admissions process.

The TSA Thinking Assessment test structure remains stable from 2023 to present

According to Hanoi University of Science and Technology, many modern testing technologies have been applied to the exam such as technology to build standardized thinking test questions, bridge theory in the exam, technology to grade the exam according to the multi-parameter IRT model, automatic check-in technology according to citizen identification cards integrated with the personal data management system on the national population database to identify candidates to take the exam to completely prevent exam fraud and cheating in exams...

Last year, Hanoi University of Science and Technology organized 6 exam sessions on weekends with 30 exam locations each session, in Hanoi and 11 provinces and cities, including: Hung Yen, Hai Duong, Hai Phong, Quang Ninh, Thai Nguyen, Nam Dinh, Thai Binh, Nghe An, Thanh Hoa, Ha Tinh, Da Nang. The exam served nearly 50,000 exams with a total of 21,000 candidates. The exam results were used by more than 50 universities to serve university admissions for the 2024-2025 school year.
