According to the draw results announced on the morning of October 24th, Le Quang Duy Khoa - from Quoc Hoc High School for the Gifted ( Hue ) - will be in position number 1, meaning he will be the first contestant in the final round of the 25th season of the "Road to Olympia" competition.

Positions 2, 3, and 4 are held by Doan Thanh Tung - Le Quy Don Specialized High School (Khanh Hoa), Tran Bui Bao Khanh - Hanoi - Amsterdam Specialized High School (Hanoi), and Nguyen Nhut Lam - Cai Be High School (Dong Thap), respectively.

While Nhut Lam is the only contestant not from a specialized school and the first contestant from Dong Thap to reach the final this year, the other three contestants all come from provinces with a long history of success in the Olympia competition.

Le Quang Duy Khoa is the eighth contestant from Quoc Hoc High School for the Gifted in Hue to reach the finals of the Road to Olympia competition, and also the third consecutive contestant from this school to bring the live Olympia broadcast to Hue, following Nguyen Minh Triet in 2023 and Vo Quang Phu Duc in 2024.

In terms of the number of championships won, Hue National High School for the Gifted ranks first nationwide with three titles in 2009, 2016, and 2024.

Tran Bui Bao Khanh is the sixth contestant from Hanoi - Amsterdam High School for Gifted Students to reach the finals this year. The biology-specialized student is highly anticipated because the prestigious Ams High School has only won the laurel wreath once in the past 25 years.

Doan Thanh Tung is the second contestant from Le Quy Don Specialized High School and the third contestant from Khanh Hoa province to register for this special competition. Thanh Tung is also expected to bring the first laurel wreath back to his home province.

Based on the results of the 4 contestants in the quarter finals, Bao Khanh leads with 295 points, followed by Nhut Lam with 290 points, Thanh Tung with 255 points and Duy Khoa with 160 points.

Traditionally, the winner of the Road to Olympia is awarded $50,000. In addition, some universities offer direct admission or bonus points to the finalists of the year.
