In mid-April 2025, grade 9 students in Hanoi will register to apply for grade 10, facing high pressure due to the increase in the number of candidates and high competition rates, especially in central districts such as Cau Giay and Ha Dong.
Many students focus on reviewing and setting good scores to increase their chances of being admitted. Pham Minh Tu (Nguyen Truong To Secondary School) is worried because his current score has not met the requirements. Dong Le Tung Lam (den Lu Secondary School) also spent 1-2 hours/day studying English, determined to pass Truong Dinh High School. Parents are also worried because public schools are highly competitive.

Talking to reporters, a teacher at Phu La Secondary School, Ha Dong District, Hanoi said that the number of candidates taking the public 10th grade exam this year will likely be higher than last year, in which some districts have few public schools such as Ha Dong and Cau Giay, the competition rate will be very high. "Ha Dong has only 3 public schools and the number of candidates taking the exam this year can reach more than 8,000 while the quota for admission to these 3 schools is less than 2,500, so even if the average score of 3 subjects is 8 points, it is still uncertain to pass," said this teacher.
