Regarding this direct admission plan, in the past 3 weeks, information has appeared in Vinh city that there are 46 students with B2 certificates in the whole city. However, according to Dang Thai Mai Secondary School, up to now, only 5 B2 students have registered for direct admission to the school.
B2 certificate is one of the certificates of Cambridge Examination Board, equivalent to the Advanced Intermediate level on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).
To achieve the B2 certificate, the learner's English level can be used in daily correspondence, paperwork and telephone communication, and can understand some non-academic training courses, simple textbooks and articles.
According to regulations, this is also one of the necessary conditions for secondary school English teachers.
A representative of an English center in Vinh city directly involved in this rumor also issued official information confirming that "rumors about a list of 46 5th grade students achieving international B2 certificates when taking the Cambridge certificate exam at the center" are rumors.
In fact, in the Cambridge exam in March 2022 (which is also the only exam of the year so far), the center did not have any candidates registered for the B2 exam. Out of 30 students taking the B1 exam, only 2 candidates were in primary school.
