In the districtXiangyang,Less than 120 minutes into the test, a few candidates at Tuong Duong 2 High School in Tam Quang commune were already leaving the room. However, the test results were not positive.

Candidate Luong Qua Dao also said that this year's Math test was difficult: She did 3 questions, 1, 2, 4 and predicted to get 5-6 points. In total, she hopes to get about 15 points, enough to be admitted to the school because this year the admission rate at Tuong Duong 2 is quite high, over 97%. This is also the year that both Tuong Duong 1 and Tuong Duong 2 High Schools organize entrance exams for grade 10 instead of selecting candidates like previous years.

Due to the large area and difficult travel conditions for candidates and parents, during the 10th grade entrance exam days, Tuong Duong District Youth Union also launched the Exam Support Program. The program attracted nearly 50 members to participate and was divided into 3 groups, on duty at the exam sites.

In addition to consulting and supporting candidates and their families, providing information and free drinking water, the union members also introduce places to eat that ensure food hygiene and safety; arrange free or cheap accommodation...

Through that, 800 free meals, each worth 30,000 VND, 60 free or cheap rooms have been organized for candidates in difficult circumstances, remote areas...

Because it was the last exam, the parents were quite nervous. At the Co Do High School Examination Council, despite the hot weather, many parents still stayed at the school gate to share with their children. Ms. Le Thi Bich in Nghia Hong Commune, Nghia Dan said: “Today is my child’s last exam, last night because I was worried, I stayed up with my child to review the lesson one last time. This morning, although the exam was not until 7:00, the mother and child left at 6:00 and had to wait for nearly an hour.

Talking about her exam, Tran Nguyen Minh Suong - Tra Lan Secondary School: There were quite a few lessons that I did not study carefully, the exam was too difficult, even though I spent all my time, I still could not finish the whole test. Especially question 4c about geometry, although I tried my best, I still could not do it. This question is a bit strange, I have never encountered this type of question. I think the highest I can get is 5-6 points", Suong said.

According to the assessment of many teachers present at the exam site, this year's exam questions have knowledge that closely follows teaching practice, and the structure is the same as every year. However, the way this year's questions are given is new, not stereotyped, requiring students to have high synthesis and application abilities.

In Vinh City,The Math exam was not “easy” for the candidates, even though the exam sites of Huynh Thuc Khang High School and Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted gathered most of the city’s good and excellent students. Talking about the exam, Bui Tuan Anh (Hung Binh Secondary School) said: The exam was not too difficult, but it was highly classified, I did about 90%, except for question 4c. The same goes for my classmates.

At the test siteDo Luong 1 High School, Nguyen Thi Hoang Giang (student of Ly Nhat Quang Secondary School - Do Luong) regretfully said: Question 4c is a type of trick question, a reversal of a normal question type, so it is difficult for students to identify the question to do the test. Personally, I identified the question but because of lack of time, I could only do half of question 4c and estimated to get about 9 points.

Thus, by this morning, candidates have completed the 10th grade entrance exam. During the two days of the exam, 86 candidates dropped out, and 2 candidates were suspended from the exam at the Examination Council of Hoang Mai High School and Le Hong Phong High School. According to the assessment of the Department of Education and Training, the exam was conducted seriously.

Commenting on this year's Math exam, teacher Tran Thi Mai Chi - teacher at Nghi Thai Secondary School (Nghi Loc) said: The exam closely followed the structure of the exam, the review program and was not more difficult than in previous years.

In this test, questions 1, 2, 3 and 4a are basic questions, students can easily get points, question 4b is for good students. Question 3 solves math problems by setting up basic equations and systems of equations, which is also a question to practice practical application for students, so it is quite good.

Question 4c and question 5 are questions to classify students' abilities, so they are quite difficult. Question 5, this year, is a question to solve a system of irrational equations, different from other years when it comes to inequalities or irrational equations, so it may surprise students.
