The only student in Nghe An who got 10 points in Literature was a student who was good at Biology and Chemistry.
(Baonghean.vn) - It has been many years since Nghe An had a 10 in Literature in the 10th grade entrance exam. This female student was also the valedictorian of Nguyen Sy Sach High School (Thanh Chuong).
Double valedictorian
A day has passed since the results of the Entrance Exam were announced.grade 10The 2021-2022 school year, but Bui Thao Nguyen still seems to not believe in her results. The first night, the whole family lost sleep because of the "emotional feeling" that is hard to describe in words...

Thao Nguyen said she was quite surprised because after taking the exam, even though she had to do 3 test papers and write about 10 pages, she only hoped to get 8.5 points. That's why when she received the information "valedictorian" and was the only 10, I was very surprised. With a 10LiteratureWith a Math score of 9 and a Foreign Language score of 6.6, Bui Thao Nguyen also won the top position at Nguyen Sy Sach High School (Thanh Chuong).
Having to wait nearly 6 years, Nghe An has its second 10 in Literature and is also a rare 10 in the history of Literature in the province.
As a teacher in charge of Literature at the Department of Education and Training, teacher Nguyen Chi Hoa - Secondary Education Department said: I am in charge of and manage another exam marking point, so according to the regulations, I am not allowed to read this female student's 10-point exam. However, when we knew the results, we were all very happy. In fact, Literature as well as other subjects have a scoring scale from 1 to 10, but to score a Literature essay with a 10-point score, the essay must be outstanding and meet all 5 criteria: correct on the issue, sharp and tight argument structure, advanced, correct spelling. In particular, the writing must be creative...

Talking about her test, Thao Nguyen said, “When I read the Literature exam this year, I really liked it. However, because the test time is only 120 minutes, I had to arrange my time reasonably, in which the first 60 minutes were for questions 1 and 2. The remaining 55 minutes I spent on question 3 and the last 5 minutes I reviewed the test and corrected spelling mistakes.”
In addition to arranging a reasonable time to do the test, Thao Nguyen added: "I think I did well with the content of the questions, and I really liked the Essay question "talking about my thoughts on the role of independence for young people".
This is also a fairly new question, but with her thinking, Thao Nguyen has a pretty tight argument with the example of the image of the young man Nguyen Tat Thanh, with his will, determined to go out to find a way to save the country and liberate the country from slavery. As for her own thinking, this female student believes that: If a person does not have independence, it is difficult to succeed, the success index can be zero or negative. Therefore, from when they are a child, a student or older, everyone must have a sense of independence, decide their own future and must make an effort to do it.

In other questions, despite having a rather long essay, Thao Nguyen was still able to reread her work quite accurately.
In response to her thoughts with the sentence "The tree protects the baby bird from the scorching sun and wind and rain, and shelters the baby bird until it has enough feathers and wings", the girl wrote: "If we say that the parents are the green tree and the baby is the baby bird, we can see that the baby bird is always under the protection of the tree. But when the bird grows up and is able to find better things in life, the bird must also learn to leave the protective canopy of the tree, and when the baby grows up, it must also learn to leave the arms of its parents."
Thao Nguyen also believes that this year there are connections between the exam questions and this can make it “difficult” for candidates. However, Thao Nguyen sees this as an “advantage” and uses data from previous questions to prove her writing.
Directly marking Thao Nguyen's test and deciding to give this test 10 points, the female supervisor at the marking site of Ha Huy Tap High School shared: I have been teaching Literature for 28 years and this is the first Literature test I have given a score of 10. It is a perfect test in all sentences and ensures completeness.
This female judge also said: In addition to the specific criteria, the subject of Literature has its own characteristic of literary quality. Therefore, to write a good essay, in addition to knowledge, skills are needed, and the writer's own voice and creativity are needed. Here, in this essay, the candidate has deeply and freshly expressed the issues that the essay requires and the writing style is clear and unique: In just a short time, she has written a clean essay, with beautiful handwriting, no erasures, and no confusion in expression. Her thinking is also coherent and proactive, not presented in a memorization or copying style...

Previously, this female judge was judge 1 and when she decided to give the first 10 points for Literature in her teaching career, in addition to being "excited", she also had a feeling of "expectation" because the final decision score still depended on judge 2 - who marked it a second time. Because of that, when looking at the results of the two combined markings, the examination board seemed to "burst" because both judges decided to give a score of 10 for this special essay.
Literature is not an advantage
Receiving Bui Thao Nguyen's exam results, not only her family but also her teachers at Thanh Yen Secondary School - Thanh Chuong District were surprised because "Nguyen's advantage at school is learning natural sciences. In 9th grade, Nguyen achieved the District Excellent Student award in both Chemistry and Biology. In Math, Nguyen was also called to the team by the homeroom teacher".

In fact, Thao Nguyen was also called to join the team by her Literature teacher, but because of her dream of becoming a doctor and her determination to study natural sciences, she refused this opportunity.
However, although he does not pursue Literature, this is still the subject that inspires Nguyen and Nguyen learns Literature as easily as "reading a good book". Nguyen personally also believes that the secret to learning Literature is simply to read a lot of books to practice writing and give himself emotions...

Along with a perfect score of 10 in Literature, Thao Nguyen also had a successful exam when she achieved the position of Valedictorian in Nguyen Sy Sach High School, in which she got 9 points in Math. This girl also shared: The Math test for me was not too difficult and if I read the test carefully, I can be sure to get 9.5 points...
Thao Nguyen's mother - teacher Tran Thanh Tam - also a Math teacher shared: Personally, I can put pressure on myself, but I have never shown it to make my child worry. Thao Nguyen studies hard, loves to read books, and saves all her money to buy stories. I also do not forbid her from playing with her phone, and in 8th grade, I even proactively created a Facebook for her so she could chat and exchange with teachers and friends. However, Thao Nguyen is a disciplined and "independent" child, so she has never made her parents upset or worried.
