This year in particular, the practical exam was included in the exam content after a three-year hiatus due to online exams, but the practical results of Vietnamese students have improved significantly, demonstrating the effectiveness and quality of the selection, training and education in both theory and practice.
According to the regulations of the IChO 2023 Council, on the first day, candidates will take the Practical exam and on the second day, they will take the Theory exam.
Each exam lasts 5 hours. This year’s Theory and Practice exams, although long, are considered difficult and interesting, covering many modern scientific issues, with content related to environmental protection, renewable energy, etc.
The outstanding achievements of the Vietnamese national team at IChO 2023 continue to affirm the quality of key general education; at the same time, affirm the right direction in the work of discovering, selecting and nurturing excellent students of the Ministry of Education and Training.
