Too many complicated and ineffective admission methods
According to Mr. Nguyen Anh Dung, Deputy Director of the Department of Higher Education, there are still issues to note in the 2024 university admissions season. One of the problems is that there are too many admission methods, while only a few methods are really useful for schools in the admissions process.
"The fact that universities use too many admission methods causes information confusion. Many admission methods have no or very few candidates registering, showing ineffectiveness and not ensuring fairness between admission methods.
There is an admission method in which the number of candidates admitted by this method in the entire system is only 2 digits (only a few dozen candidates - PV)," said Mr. Dung.
In addition, Mr. Dung also said that many training institutions have not analyzed the correlation and compared students' learning outcomes according to admission methods.
Some places have not ensured fairness, and the allocation of quotas is not reasonable, causing difficulties for candidates and the system. Many schools that consider early admission cannot predict the number of virtual candidates.
Through analysis of the Ministry's 2024 regular university admission results, it shows that more than 52% of candidates are admitted based on high school graduation exam results and more than 27% are admitted based on high school academic results (transcripts). Meanwhile, only about 3.36% of candidates are admitted based on the results of the ability and thinking assessment test.

Therefore, Mr. Dung recommends that universities should consider calculating to eliminate ineffective admission methods before planning to organize admissions in the 2025 university entrance exam.
