Second registration period for high school graduation recognition. From May 2nd, 2017 to May 24th, 2017, all candidates taking the exam for high school graduation recognition must register to provide information on their academic results and conduct in grade 12. Candidates who completed the high school program in 2016 or earlier must submit their high school graduation recognition registration form at the same time as submitting their exam registration form.
According to Mr. Nguyen Huu Do, Director of the Hanoi Department of Education and Training, for the 2017 National High School Graduation Examination, candidates will register to take the exam by group of schools or by school location. Each examination board will have students from many different schools.
Candidates should note that after completing the first two exams in their subject combination, they must return all exam papers, answer sheets, and scratch paper to the invigilator. For example, if a candidate is taking the natural science combination (Physics, Chemistry, Biology), after finishing the first exam, let's say Physics, the candidate must return all exam papers, answer sheets, and scratch paper to the invigilator before they can proceed to the Chemistry exam.
This process is repeated after the candidates finish the Chemistry exam. However, for the final exam, Biology, the invigilators do not need to collect the exam papers.
