The 2025 10th grade entrance exam results in Ho Chi Minh City show that the city has 2 candidates scoring 9.5 points and 22 candidates scoring 9.25 points. While last year the numbers were 1 and 20 candidates respectively.

Contrary to the initial concerns of many teachers, this year is the first year students take the exam according to the new program, so it is inevitable that they will be confused with the structure of the exam, the types of questions, etc. Especially this year's literature exam is completely based on materials outside of textbooks, the scores of candidates this year are equivalent to 2024. Last year, the average score for literature was 6.5 - 7 points, this year is similar.

"This is the result of many years of innovation in test making and teaching methods for literature in high schools in Ho Chi Minh City. Students in Ho Chi Minh City are used to open-ended questions and taking tests where the test data is not in the textbooks.

This is a good sign, affirming that Ho Chi Minh City is on the right track with the goals of the 2018 general education program" - a leader of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training said.
