With the entrance exam method, there will be three exam subjects including Math, Literature and a third exam or combination exam selected by the Department of Education and Training, higher education institution and announced before January 31. 03 every year.

Thus, in the latest draft, the Ministry of Education and Training has abandoned the proposal to draw a third exam subject in high school admission.

An official working in the field of education quality management said that the regulation on the third exam subject must change every year (it can be understood that the third exam subject of the following year cannot overlap with the third exam subject of the consecutive year). (previously) then the Departments will select the third exam subject by one of the options such as: Drawing lots from subjects of the middle school program that were not tested the previous year; fixed regulations for rotating all subjects in the middle school program for the entire cycle; regulations to take a number of subjects in the junior high school program and then rotate.

The problem here is how to choose the third exam subject to help us still achieve our educational goals and not lose the equality between subjects (avoid considering this subject as a main subject or subject). The other is a secondary subject), fully promoting the qualities and abilities of students.

It can be seen that, although the Ministry of Education and Training has abandoned the proposal to “draw lots for the third exam subject”, changing the third exam subject every year will also put Departments in the position of choosing by “drawing lots”.

Evaluating the draft and talking to reporters from Vietnam Education Electronic Magazine, Mr. Nguyen Xuan Khang – Chairman of Marie Curie School Council (Hanoi) said that the nature of the graduation exam/exam and the Entrance exams/tests are very different. The graduation exam/exam mainly evaluates the quality of teaching and learning at an educational level; Students who meet the final standards will be recognized as graduating. The first admission period, based on students meeting the standards of the previous level, aims to classify students according to the training needs of different types of schools. Students who meet the standard scores will be admitted.

Therefore, in the draft high school admission regulations, it is stipulated: “High school enrollment subjects are middle school graduates with ages as prescribed in the middle school charter, High schools and high schools have many levels of education.

However, in Article 12, clause 1, section a on the selection of the third exam subject, it is stipulated: “there are changes over the years to achieve the goal of comprehensive education in the basic education stage”. The third exam or a combination of subjects is selected from among the subjects evaluated by scores in the middle school program. This falls under the function of the secondary school graduation exam. It must be affirmed that all students recognized as graduating from secondary school must meet the quality and capacity requirements of “comprehensive education in the basic education stage”. Therefore, it should not, once again, be included in the 10th grade high school entrance exam.

“There are 3 methods for high school admission: admission, entrance exam or combination of entrance exam and admission. Schools with enrollment quotas equal to or greater than the number of registered students only need to consider admission. recruiting, without having to organize an exam, saving effort and money. Schools with enrollment exceeding the target will organize an entrance exam or combine the exam with admission.

High school entrance exam subjects should be clearly defined, transparent and stable for many years. Do not and absolutely do not use the form of “drawing lots”. In Article 12, Clause 1 of the draft stipulates: the third subject or combination test shall be selected by the Department of Education and Training and the higher education institution as one of two options and announced before March 31 every year. year. This will lead to having to “draw lots”, luck depends on luck, which is really not recommended.

With the view that the high school entrance exam is compact, does not cause pressure and is expensive, the number of exam subjects can be 2 or 3 subjects. If there are 2 subjects, choose Math and Literature. If there are 3 subjects, choose Math, Literature and Foreign Language,” Mr. Khang commented on the draft.

Giving the reason for choosing foreign language as the third subject, Mr. Khang analyzed: “Foreign language is one of eight compulsory subjects that all students must study in high school. Later, if English is taught, The regulation is that foreign language 1 requires all students from grades 3 to 12 to study English as the third subject. According to Conclusion No. 91-KL/TW, gradually introducing English as the second language in school study, then choosing a third subject, a foreign language, is necessary.

For admission to specialized high schools, in addition to the two compulsory exams Math and Literature like non-specialized students, the third subject is a specialized exam, with a separate exam to select students with talent in specialized subjects. there.

Chairman of the Marie Curie School Board (Hanoi) commented further on Article 14, clause 2, section a: Regulation of adding 2.0 priority points to “Children of revolutionary activists before January 1, 1945″ and ” Son of a revolutionary activist from January 1, 1945 to the August uprising in 1945. According to preliminary calculations, veteran revolutionaries aged 95 and older are in this category. Those who cannot have children (age 15) will take the 10th grade entrance exam from 2025 onwards. Therefore, the draft should remove these regulations to suit reality.

Also giving comments on the draft, Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai, Principal of Nguyen Trai Secondary School (Ba Ria City, Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province) if required to change exam subjects each year according to regulations of the Ministry Education and Training, students still need to be informed early to have preparation and psychological stability in learning.

Ms. Mai believes that the third exam subject should be fixed as foreign language. Learning a foreign language is not only a mandatory requirement in the educational program but also an essential skill for students in the process of integration and development. Ba Ria – Vung Tau province has paid great attention to foreign language teaching, as shown by the implementation of Resolution 123/2019/NQ-HDND increasing 2 English periods/week for high school students from grades 3 to 12 from school year 2019-2020 to 2024-2025.

“Continuous change can make parents and students worry about stability. This change can also create coping psychology, causing students to only focus on exam subjects instead of studying comprehensively and long-term,” Ms. Mai commented.

The third exam subject should be assigned to localities to take the initiative

Ms. Nguyen Thi Minh Dong, Principal of Chau Thanh Secondary School (Vung Tau City, Ba Ria – Vung Tau Province) said that this year's 10th grade entrance exam has many changes to match the Chapter. 2018 general education program, in which this year's exam structure in Math and Literature is different. In Math, there are multiple-choice tests combined with essay, and in Literature, there are materials used completely outside the textbook.

Teachers and students have to make a lot of effort to change and adjust teaching and learning forms and methods. Changing the third exam subject will lead to students studying spread out, lacking focus, and even having to study extra in all subjects, which is very stressful.

Currently, schools also have methods and solutions to effectively manage teaching and learning in the 2018 general education program, including innovating the way of setting questions, how to test and evaluate, and how to organize activities. move to make a substantive and comprehensive assessment; Promote the capacity and qualities of learners in all subjects.

In addition to Math and Literature, which are two compulsory exam subjects, the choice of a third exam subject should be left to localities and provinces to proactively choose and publicize. Depending on the actual situation of the locality, decide to choose the third exam subject and take responsibility for the quality of education. This is to ensure proactiveness and strengthen decentralization of State management of education and training.

The People's Committees of the provinces can assign the departments of education and educational institutions to choose the third exam subject and announce it at the beginning of the school year. Publicizing the third exam right from the beginning of the school year limits unnecessary problems that arise so that students, parents and schools can feel secure and be more proactive in reviewing and orienting students and teachers. The third subject should not be stable but can be changed every year to avoid misperceptions about the role of subjects in the program or to avoid learning deviations.

English is very necessary and important for students, meeting integration needs, so the majority of parents and schools have paid great attention, invested and included it in strategic goals and key tasks for the year. learning from schools. However, not all students or localities have strengths in this subject. At the same time, according to the requirements of the 2018 General Education Program, other subjects are also very important and necessary for middle school students.

Ms. Minh Dong said that the third exam subject does not necessarily have to be English, but can choose another compulsory subject among the subjects evaluated by scores in the general education program at the junior high school level. The latest draft of the Regulations on middle school admission and high school admission is quite appropriate.

However, localities should be empowered to proactively choose exam subjects and announce the third exam subject right from the beginning of the school year, possibly before the first day of school each year so that students and schools can proactively plan and still ensure quality assurance.

Regarding the exam subject announcement time, Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai said that if the high school entrance exam is held with a third subject that changes every year, the exam subject announcement time will be before March 31 as the draft mentions. is too late, it will affect students' revision. According to Ms. Mai, students need to know the departments' plans early to have enough time to prepare and review the exam effectively.

The draft also mentions the junior high school enrollment process, according to which the junior high school enrollment plan is announced before March 31 every year. According to Ms. Mai, this time is unreasonable because at this time elementary school students have not completed the program, schools cannot develop plans. Ms. Mai proposed that the junior high school enrollment plan be completed and announced before June 31 every year.
