Admission scores of top universities in Hanoi will decrease by 2-3 points

Admission scores of top universities in Hanoi will decrease by 2-3 points.

In general, regarding the score distribution of this year's exam, many admissions experts believe that, compared to the score distribution of the corresponding exam subjects in 2017, the chart of the above-average scores of all subjects tends to be more relaxed (except for Math), which facilitates the admission process of universities and colleges.

In Math, the 2018 score distribution chart on the right side of the median score is much steeper than the 2017 score distribution, which shows that the level of differentiation in this year's Math exam is higher than in 2017, and the exam is also more difficult as public opinion reflects. In fact, the whole country only has 2 10 points in Math compared to the "rain of 10 points" in 2017 (nearly 300).

This year, for groups that use Math as an admission subject, there will be no need to worry about additional criteria when enrolling. With 26 points, students can almost choose any school they want to go to.

Besides, with a score of 21 to 24 points due to the large number of students, it is very difficult for candidates who want to enter top schools to choose the schools they want.

Analysis of exam scores of each block(A, A1, B, C, C01, D), Mr. Mai Van Trinh, Director of the Department of Quality Assessment of the Ministry of Education and Training, said that the subjects of Mathematics, Literature, Physics, and Geography have an average score in the range of (5; 6). The subjects of Chemistry, Biology, History, and English have an average score in the range of (4; 5). The number of candidates with above-average scores in Mathematics, Literature, Physics, Chemistry, and Geography are all over 50%.

The total scores by exam groups have a high degree of dispersion and better differentiation than the total scores by exam groups in 2017. The average score of the total scores of the analyzed exam groups is greater than 15.

2018 National High School Math Exam Score Distribution.

Mr. Nguyen Phong Dien - Head of Training Department, Hanoi University of Science and Technology said that the subjects of Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology basically have acceptable scores. However, the number of candidates with high scores above 7.0 has decreased significantly compared to 2017, so the top schools that recruit according to the combination of these subjects will have to reduce the standard score by 2-3 points compared to 2017 to meet the target because the source of "quality" candidates is not abundant.

Regarding the low English score range (most candidates have scores from 2.60 to 3.60), Mr. Dien said that the standard scores of schools for admission subject combinations including English (for example A01, D01) will decrease by at least 2-3 points on a scale of 30.

According to Mr. Dien, for Hanoi University of Science and Technology, for majors with 25 to 28 points in 2017, the expected benchmark score this year will decrease by 2 points;

For industries with a benchmark score of 24 points or less in 2017, this year's benchmark score may decrease by 1.5 points.

Mr. Dien said that the school plans to set 4 minimum scores for accepting applications depending on each major, from 19 to 22 points.

For the University of Economics, the National Economics University has announced the minimum score for admission from 18 points or higher.

Mr. Bui Duc Trieu, head of training department of National Economics University, said that this year's admission score of National Economics University may decrease by 1-3 points depending on each major.

At Foreign Trade University, the admission score has been lowered by 1 point compared to last year. The admission score is 20.5 points. Ms. Pham Thu Huong, Head of Training Department of Foreign Trade University, said that this year's standard will be lower than last year, following the general trend.

University of Commerce, the admission score includes priority points by region and subject ≥ 16.0 points and no exam/subject in the admission combination has a result of 1.0 (one) point or lower.

Mr. Dinh Van Son, the school's principal, said that this year, the number of applications to the school is very large, more than 50,000. However, according to the general trend, the standard score to enter the school this year will also fluctuate, slightly decreasing in majors with high standard scores from last year.
