(Dan Tri) - Many medical schools have high entrance scores but do not have excellent graduates, and there are few good students. On the contrary, many schools have low entrance scores but many students graduate with excellent grades.
More than 700 medical students from top schools graduate, none of them outstanding
Despite the sky-high entrance scores, there are no outstanding graduates or extremely rare ones in the health sector training practice at many long-standing and large-scale medical schools in the country.
Considered the largest medical training unit in the country, attracting many excellent students, but all 722 new medical doctors at Hanoi Medical University who just received their graduation certificates this year, none of them graduated with honors.

The whole school has 11.3% of medical students graduating with honors, students graduating with good grades account for nearly 70%; the rest are average or average graduates.
This is the 2018 enrollment year, the standard score for medical majors at Hanoi Medical University is 24.75, the valedictorian that year scored 29.8 points.
Previously, according to the 2022 graduation ranking results of Hanoi Medical University, there were no excellent students out of 1,128 students awarded degrees, with good students accounting for 7.7%.
The graduating class of 2023 - the class of students with a record high entrance score at Hanoi Medical University with 29.25 points - a series of majors do not have excellent graduates such as nursing, public health , and ophthalmology.
Some majors only have 1 or 2 excellent graduates such as traditional medicine doctor, traditional medicine doctor, preventive medicine doctor, medical testing, nutrition...
At the graduation ceremony at the end of last year of the Faculty of Medicine - now the University of Health Sciences (Ho Chi Minh City National University) - there were 132 medical graduates but there were no excellent students, good graduates accounted for only more than 6%.

In the 2022 graduation of Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy, 358 students were recognized as graduating medical doctors, with only one student graduating with honors.
This year’s graduation, the school’s excellent medical doctor graduates increased, but only 3 students, accounting for 0.84% of the total 366 new doctors. The excellent graduates rate was 18.77%.
The leader of a public medical school explained that the lack of excellent graduates in medical schools stems from the assessment and evaluation in health training. The assessment focuses on working ability rather than on grades.
In addition, the assessment requires many factors besides knowledge, including a series of practical skills, professionalism, attitude, professional capacity... so it is not easy for students to achieve the maximum level.
However, the rare rate of good and excellent students does not mean that graduates do not have good professional skills and expertise...
The lower the school's entrance score, the more excellent its output...
In complete contrast to long-standing schools with high entrance scores and shrinking output, newly established private universities in the medical field have low entrance scores but excellent output.
At Duy Tan University, according to the summary of the number of graduates in the public report for the 2023-2024 school year, the number of students in the VI major (including medicine, pharmacy, nursing; dentistry) graduating with honors accounted for 5.08%, with good grades accounted for 21.95%, and with good grades accounted for 62.69%.
