Experts assess the score distribution for the 2nd exam at the Tuyen Quang High School for the Gifted exam site
On the morning of August 19, the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) announced the results and score distribution of the 2nd high school graduation exam at the Tuyen Quang Specialized High School exam site.
Giving an assessment of the results of the 2nd exam at the Tuyen Quang Specialized High School exam site, Dr. Pham Ngoc Duy, New Meridian Testing Organization, USA, said that the results of the 2nd high school graduation exam in 2026 of the group of candidates taking the exam at the Tuyen Quang Specialized High School exam site are reasonable compared to the expectations of people working in the field of testing.
Mr. Duy gave two grounds to explain this opinion.
First, for subjects with a sufficiently large number of candidates such as Math, Literature, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, History, Geography, English, the basic statistical parameters of the second exam score data including the average value and standard deviation, are assessed by him as reasonable. The average score reflects the central value of the data. Meanwhile, the standard deviation indicates the dispersion from the average value of the data. When the exam score accurately reflects the candidate's ability, the higher the average score, the higher the candidate's ability. The higher the standard deviation, the more points are dispersed far from the average value. See more...
