After the University of Social Sciences and Humanities (USSH), Vietnam National University , Hanoi announced the admission scores, some candidates said they were surprised when their D66 combination score exceeded the admission score but they still failed, only passing the lower choice.

According to the candidate, the school has defined the D66 group as consisting of three subjects: literature, English, and civics, instead of literature, English, economic education, and law as the school announced in the admission information issued on June 4.

On June 7, the school posted a correction and said that at group D66, the subject "economic and legal education" was changed to "civic education", but many candidates said they could not access this information because it was only shared on the school's website.

By the morning of August 24, on the fanpage of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, an announcement was posted about the school's D66 and X78 combinations, after receiving feedback from candidates registering for D66 combination about confusing the subjects of civic education and economics and law education.

Currently, the school is coordinating with relevant agencies to handle the situation, in order to ensure the rights of candidates.

The University of Social Sciences and Humanities requests candidates related to the D66 and X78 groups to respond before 5:00 p.m. on August 26 for support.

Of which, psychology leads with 29 points; public relations 28.95 points; journalism ranks third with 28.20 points. The subject with the lowest standard score is religious studies.
