Prepare for grade 10

Students register for the 10th grade high school entrance exam in 2024.

Get the essentials

Currently, preparations for the 10th grade entrance exam in provinces and cities across the country are being carried out urgently.

Mr. Tran Quoc Dat - Principal of Trung Vuong Secondary School (Me Linh, Hanoi ) informed: This school year, the school has 184 students registered to take the entrance exam to grade 10 public high schools. Since April, the school has been conducting parallel teaching of the main curriculum and reviewing knowledge for the entrance exam to grade 10 for grade 9 students, proposing measures to supplement the missing knowledge and skills for them. The school's goal in this year's entrance exam to grade 10 is to maintain and maintain the high school entrance exam results of the past years, being the school with the highest average score in the entrance exam to grade 10 in the district.

Ms. Phan Thi Thanh Nhung - President of the Trade Union, Literature teacher at Nguyen An Khuong Secondary School (HCMC) said: The school has organized review sessions for students, arranged a reasonable timetable to ensure health and interleaving between subjects.

In addition, teachers also systematize knowledge, helping students grasp the program in the shortest time, especially mastering test-taking skills to achieve the best scores. The students are very determined. However, they are also somewhat stressed, anxious, and pressured by the exam.

Ms. Nhung added that up to now, enrollment registration in most localities has been completed. Aspirations are the dreams and future of the students.

But passing your first, second or third choice is the path ahead that you have to take. Therefore, you need to equip yourself with, first, good health, second, the most solid knowledge possible, and third, understanding how to do the test. To do that, I think you need a reasonable schedule, what time to study in class, what time to study at home. After school, play sports , rest, do not feel pressured to study late at night, because it will cause your health to decline and affect your spirit.

On social networks, teachers organize many review guides. Students can refer to channels of reputable teachers, who teach focused, easy-to-understand lessons. With Literature, to do well in an essay, students need to have a solid grasp of knowledge. They need to equip themselves and accumulate knowledge. In class, listen to teachers guide skills. Students also need to be calm to see what the assignment requires them to do, if they do it right, they will get high scores.

The Department of Education and Training has announced the data of the first choice to enter the schools, just by calculating, you can know how much the "competition" rate is, you know how many friends you have to "defeat", that is not a small pressure. However, you should be determined to pursue, try hard, then that gate will open. Of course, if you are not lucky, there are still opportunities for you in other paths.

Parents and teachers together

Ms. Phan Thi Thanh Nhung also added that: There are students who change their psychology when they reach grade 9. Some students at this age start to have feelings for the opposite sex. When they have such feelings, they will be distracted from focusing on their studies. Some students say that friendship between the opposite sex helps them have more motivation. I agree that there are cases like that. But some students may be too emotional, sometimes thinking more about their friends than the content of their studies, paying more attention to their friends than the teacher who is lecturing.

The second problem is related to social networks. This problem has a significant impact on students when they lack family connection and direction. Some students are "addicted" to social networks. In their free time, instead of playing or studying, they surf the internet or play online games. Many students of middle school age play games very enthusiastically. Instead of studying or resting during recess, they open their phones and focus on their phones with a group of friends... Parents must really pay attention.

Regarding this, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Viet - Principal of Tam Dong Secondary School (Hanoi) shared: The transfer exam is already stressful. Grade 9 students are in puberty, with strong physical and psychological changes. Therefore, if we focus on reviewing, studying and studying but forget about the requirements for taking care of their mental and physical health, it will also create many very worrying things. Understanding that, in addition to enhancing knowledge review, the school organizes more useful cultural and sports activities to help students reduce stress, relieve pressure and improve their learning spirit.

Besides the anxiety of preparing for important exams, preparing your child for a new school and a new journey is also something to consider.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Nhiep - Principal of Chu Van An High School (Hanoi) said: When a student steps from the threshold of junior high school to high school, there will be many difficulties that they will have to go through. Parents need to understand and share encouragement. Those are the difficulties of a new school, new friends and new teachers, new learning methods and a large amount of knowledge. And more importantly, the psychology of this age group has many changes, while the temptations outside in society are very great...

Even many students in Hanoi today still experience the difficulties of being admitted to specialized schools or top high schools. Many students fall asleep on their laurels and fail throughout the first semester of 10th grade, making their academic performance impossible to save for the following years.

Or many parents and students set themselves too strict goals such as: Must be at the top of the class like in middle school, must achieve excellent scores... while the abilities of high school students are much different from those of middle school students.

Ms. Nhiep also noted that the selection of subject combinations must be done right from when students submit their application for admission to grade 10. Therefore, in order to choose the right and appropriate course for their abilities and career interests, parents must research and orient themselves right now.

Parents should guide their children to register for elective subjects that are suitable for their abilities and in line with current career trends. Information about subject combinations is mostly publicly registered by high schools in Hanoi on the school's website. And especially notes on how teaching and learning methods at high school for 10th graders are different from those at middle school so that students can grasp and orient themselves...
