Parents and students are discussing the issue of many universities organizing their own exams for admission in 2025. Universities aim to establish their unique standards by organizing exams that assess students’ abilities and thinking skills, using the results as a basis for admissions.
The ambition to recruit good students to have good courses, thereby having good output, providing high-quality human resources and increasing the prestige of the school is legitimate and needs to be supported. Organizing assessment exams for admission also shows the initiative of universities. Good students, confident, are willing to participate in assessment exams to find a place in top schools. Not to mention, if admitted from a separate exam, students will reduce the pressure of exams.
Schools tend to organize their own exams, students will have more pressure, partly from the high school graduation exam, partly from university exams. Parents also have to struggle to keep up with changes in the admission situation every year, the pressure is not only from children, but also from parents.
Another issue that managers need to pay attention to is controlling the transparency of individual exams, regarding the announcement of exam questions and answers. In fact, there have been universities that have made mistakes in their competency assessment exams. If everyone does things on their own, without any inspection or supervision regulations, mistakes and even negative practices can completely happen.
For university admission, the high school graduation exam results are a common standard. However, to improve the quality of the exam, the quality of the exam questions must be improved. Ensure knowledge requirements, classify excellent, good, fair, and average students.
Therefore, in addition to rectifying the transparency of separate exams, the Ministry of Education and Training focuses on improving the quality of high school graduation exams, which must be equal to or higher than the quality of separate exams of universities.
Competition in admissions gives rise to many new forms, which is also the law of development.
