"Our class 12A3 is really happy to have a member participating in this contest and currently the class has many plans to cheer and support the contestants, especially Tran The Trung.

I also watched most of the contestants' performances in the Road to Olympia competition and was impressed with many contestants. Like in the final, the winner of the second quarter, Nguyen Hai Dang, was an extremely strong contestant who, while at a losing score, overcame his opponent and won convincingly. Contestant Doan Nam Thang (winner of the fourth quarter) was also a very good contestant who won by a large margin over the remaining opponents.

This year, all 4 contestants are from specialized schools, which has broken the stereotype that specialized school students only know how to study one specialized subject. On the contrary, this has affirmed that specialized school students are still good at many subjects at the same time and are well-rounded students in many different arenas. This also helps the final match become attractive, highly competitive and worth watching.

I also hope that Tran The Trung will be confident to enter the competition in the best way."

"Before this year's final match, I was very happy because my students had overcome many challenges to be present in this final match. As for me, I have absolute faith in Tran The Trung for many reasons.

That is, Trung has gone through many ups and downs in the monthly, weekly and quarterly competitions. Second, Trung has a relatively good knowledge base. Third, Trung has studied in a traditional environment; teachers and friends are always ready to support Trung in all his journeys. In particular, Trung has the advantage of a spirit of perseverance until the last minute. That may also be the courage of a person born in the sunny and windy Central region.

Regarding this year's final, I think the contestants are better than last year and each contestant has their own unique qualities. However, the style of the contestants in the South is often more liberal and the remaining contestants will certainly have a lot of pressure. The winning contestant is the one who knows how to overcome psychology and not be controlled by emotions."

"The interesting thing about the final is that the contestants all know each other and understand each other quite well. Therefore, each contestant knows each other's strengths and weaknesses and the opportunity is divided equally among all contestants. The Trung's strength is in the acceleration part. Meanwhile, Ba Vinh usually does very well in the warm-up...

Personally, I also think that knowledge in textbooks is difficult to master, but knowledge outside is limitless. Perhaps, the understanding of the candidates is not too different, so the important factor to win is full mental preparation."

"During this time, we are very excited to practice for the performance to prepare for the Olympia TV show in 2019. I hope that with the enthusiastic cheering of the fans, the contestants will have more confidence to enter the final match.

This will also be a difficult final because this year's contestants are all very strong, have a lot of knowledge and are determined, all trying their best. Therefore, the winning contestant will need not only confidence but also a lot of luck.

Of course, in the final round I will support Trung but I think contestant Doan Nam Thang (Nguyen Du High School for the Gifted, Dak Lak) is also a very formidable contestant. Because this is the second time Dak Lak High School for the Gifted has had a contestant in the final round and Nam Thang will have the advantage of competition experience and receive a lot of advice and support from teachers and the school."
