Under the new proposals, candidates must achieve a minimum score of 50 in the second round of testing. For combined written and interview exams, candidates must score 50 or more in each component.
More than one million candidates across the country on Thursday morning started the high school graduation exam with a literature test, which lasted two hours.
At the exam procedure session, the candidates were also informed by the invigilators once again about the exam schedule and items are not allowed into the exam room.
Deputy Prime Minister Lê Thành Long underscored the special importance of this exam, given the significant societal concern for education and examinations.
