I don't need milk, just water.
At 6:30 a.m., the street in front of Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School was jammed. Although the security forces were working at full capacity, the crowd was so large that traffic jams continued for a long time.
Many students forgot their exam room and registration number, and their parents were frantically searching for them. Some parents carefully wrote down basic information on paper for their students to hold.
A parent said, "I'm worried about my child taking the exam but I'm worried about him tenfold because he's still too young." Many parents were anxious and climbed into the garage to watch the exam.

Mr. Hai Nam (Ha Dong) said that although he had reminded him carefully, perhaps because he was too rushed, when he got to the exam hall he couldn't remember which room he was in, and had to run out to find his father: "My father and I searched for each other for a while, luckily we were still on time," said Mr. Nam.
Some students stayed up too late the night before the exam, so when they entered the exam room they were still in a daze and not alert.
In exam room number 1, when the exam invigilator gave him breakfast, a candidate innocently said: "I don't need milk, just water."

According to Dan Tri reporters, at the school gate, volunteers and students were working at full capacity. To attract students, many seniors even shouted loudly: "Students, do you have any questions?"
This year, the total number of candidates taking the 6th grade exam at Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School is 5,709 students/163 exam rooms. With a target of 320, this year's ratio is 1 to 17.84 (nearly 18 students).
Previously, on May 28, the Admissions Council sent registration number information and instructions on the competency assessment test (ĐGNL) to each candidate. This included detailed instructions for candidates to get to the competency assessment point, as well as instructions on the time and regulations while taking the test.
Students with many achievements will have their incentive points added to their competency assessment score if the achievements are in different fields (total incentive points not exceeding 3.0 points/student).

Support even the smallest details
Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School is a rare school in Hanoi that does not consider transcripts in the 6th grade entrance exam this year.
The school uses the National High School Entrance Exam for admission. The exam is written with 3 subjects: Math, Vietnamese and English.
The tests combine objective and essay questions. The test content is mainly based on the 5th grade curriculum. The test time for Math and Vietnamese is 45 minutes, and for English is 30 minutes.
Regulations on incentive points added to the GPA score are as follows:
The admission score is the total score of 3 subjects plus the incentive points (if any). Candidates with a TOEFL Primary certificate of 228 points or higher or a city-level English Olympic or city-level youth IT award will receive an additional 0.5 to 1.5 points.
The school does not calculate the transcript score into the admission score, and does not require any conditions regarding the transcript to apply; class placement is based on wishes combined with the results of the ability assessment test.
The school charges 23.65 million VND/year for regular classes and 43.35 million VND/year for academic English classes.

Sharing with Dan Tri reporter, Dr. Pham Si Cuong, Principal of Nguyen Tat Thanh Secondary and High School (under Hanoi National University of Education) said that the school's viewpoint reminded from the Steering Committee that the students are very young, many of them are participating in a competition like this for the first time, so the school pays attention to every smallest detail.
"We remind teachers to be affectionate and avoid making students panic. Before, during and after the competition, students must be guided carefully and attentively.
Fearing that many students have not had breakfast, the school prepared extra milk and bread so that students in need can be given them immediately," said Mr. Cuong.
According to the school principal, other competitions may not have an ambulance, but for this particular competition, the school requested an additional ambulance and two medical staff on duty to be ready to assist when needed.
