Foreign language is chosen as the third subject for entrance exam to grade 10 in Nghe An.

(Baonghean.vn) - On the afternoon of May 5, the Nghe An Department of Education and Training announced the third exam subject for 10th grade admission for the 2017-2018 school year. As expected, Foreign Language was the chosen subject.

The entrance exam for grade 10 next school year will be held on June 6 and 7, 2017 with two forms: entrance exam and selection. This year, the Department of Education and Training only recruits students with permanent residence in Nghe An province. Students from other localities who want to take the exam must have the approval of the Nghe An Department of Education and Training.

According to regulations, candidates will take two compulsory subjects: Math and Literature and the test score will be calculated according to coefficient 2. The third subject, according to the Department of Education and Training, will be Foreign Language and the score will be calculated according to coefficient 1. For Foreign Language, candidates must take one of the following languages: English, French, Russian.

The entrance exam score is the total score of three exams calculated by coefficient and additional points for priority and incentive subjects. Candidates who pass the exam must not have any exam with a score of 0. The entrance exam results for grade 10 are not only the basis for admission to high schools but also the basis for admission to Phan Boi Chau Specialized High School and Boarding Ethnic High School.

The continuous selection of Foreign Languages ​​for the past 5 years has not surprised many teachers and parents. However, because the exam subjects are only announced about 2 weeks before the end of the school year, the review process in schools has become "passive" and students have encountered many difficulties in the review process.

Previously, many localities also organized exams for 9th grade students and the Departments of Education and Training often chose Foreign Languages ​​to test and evaluate students.
