Đề toán dài nhưng không quá khó

(Baonghean.vn) - Chiều nay, thí sinh hoàn thành môn Toán - môn thi thứ 2 của Kỳ thi THPT Quốc gia. Mặc dù đây là năm đầu tiên thi theo hình thức trắc nghiệm nhưng thí sinh khá hào hứng với hình thức mới.

Phan Văn Quyền (xã Tây Hiếu - Thị xã Thái Hòa) là một trong những thí sinh tự do tại điểm thi của Trường THPT Thái Hòa. Năm ngoái, Quyền thi khối A, điểm Toán được 8,25. Năm nay, Quyền tiếp tục đăng ký tiếp tục thi vào Trường Sỹ quan lục quân 1 nên điểm Toán vẫn là một trong ba môn xét tuyển quan trọng. Bước ra khỏi phòng thi, Quyền cho biết: Đề 50 câu, em làm đúng khoảng 40 câu, còn lại 10 câu em đánh bừa. Theo em đề năm nay không quá khó, nếu học khá có thể làm được 7 - 8 điểm. Tuy nhiên, riêng những câu phân loại thì quá khó, đặc biệt là các câu hình.

Cũng theo Quỳnh, làm bài theo hình thức thi trắc nghiệm khá hay, đòi hỏi thí sinh phải tập trung cao độ. Nhưng giá như thời gian làm bài dài hơn thì tốt. Thực tế với 90 phút, thật khó để có thể làm hết đề. Với môn Toán, Quyền cũng hi vọng sẽ đạt điểm thi bằng hoặc cao hơn năm ngoái.

At the Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted exam center, Pham Thi Thuong Hoai, a student in class 12D1 at Huynh Thuc Khang High School, said she did quite well on the exam. Of the 50 questions, she found the practical problems involving distance and coordinate systems the most difficult. "I finished just in time and I think my score will be around 9 points," Thuong Hoai said.

According to Nguyen Phuong Nguyen, a student in class 12C5 at Phan Boi Chau Specialized High School, this year's math exam was easy, and she had plenty of time left over. "There were a few questions about logarithms that I couldn't solve. I think I scored above 9."

After the 90-minute exam, many candidates lingered at the school to compare their papers and check for similarities between the different sets of questions. According to the candidates' assessments, the percentage of similar questions was only 15%, mainly concentrated in the easy questions.

Nguyen Phu Cam, a student in class 12C1 at Thai Hoa High School, is also a good student with an average math score of 8.5. Having completed about 80% of the exam, Cam was quite satisfied with his performance. He also said that this year's exam wasn't too difficult, with many questions closely following the sample exam. The exam also had a high level of differentiation, especially questions 42 and above.

Many candidates also affirmed that taking the multiple-choice math exam was quite interesting, with the questions covering the entire curriculum. In particular, this year's exam included nearly 10 questions where candidates could use a calculator to find the answers immediately, easily achieving a passing grade and avoiding failing marks.

However, accurately assessing the scores remains quite difficult. In reality, many candidates claim to have completed the entire exam, but answer many questions by chance.

Nguyen Cao Sang, the first candidate to complete the Math exam at Huynh Thuc Khang High School (Vinh City), said: "Before the Math exam, I was quite worried, but after finishing, I felt reassured by my results. I'm confident I'll get 8 points. This year's Math exam had a high degree of differentiation. It was easy for candidates to get a 7, but getting an 8 or higher was quite difficult. The exam started to clearly differentiate from question 35/50 onwards."

Candidate Ha Kieu Trinh shared: "The difficulty of the math exam is equivalent to the difficulty of the third sample exam. With this exam, getting a 7 is easy, but getting an 8 requires certain skills. I did my best, there were 10 questions I was unsure about, I expect to get 8 points." Candidates said that with 24 different exam codes, each candidate took a different exam. Therefore, in the exam room, people couldn't exchange answers or look at each other's papers. Everyone in the exam room focused on their work and was very serious.

Tomorrow, candidates will take the first combined subject exam, the Natural Sciences combination, which includes Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, with 50 minutes allotted for each subject.
