According to information from the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training, this school year, the city has more than 169,000 students completing the lower secondary education program. Of these, more than 151,000 have registered to take the entrance exam for grade 10 at public high schools.
In addition, 1,515 students were admitted directly according to regulations, including 100 students who achieved national-level sports accomplishments, 3 students from very small ethnic minority groups, and 1,412 students with disabilities.
During the college registration process, the entire city recorded 45,263 adjustments to college application preferences in the second round. The data is currently being reviewed and synchronized to facilitate the organization of the entrance exams.
Among the candidates, more than 11,300 registered for specialized, integrated, and special programs. Of these, English specialization had the highest number of applicants with 3,342 candidates, followed by Mathematics specialization with 2,072 candidates and Literature specialization with 1,368 candidates.
Thus, approximately 16,800 students did not take the 10th grade entrance exam but chose to study at private schools, vocational training centers, continuing education institutions, and other training programs.
The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training assesses that, following the reorganization of administrative units and the expansion of administrative boundaries, the scale of 10th-grade enrollment has increased significantly. To prepare for the entrance exam to be held in early June, the planning of exam locations is being carried out in a way that maximizes convenience for students, especially in areas far from the city center, border areas, and areas with specific characteristics.
Ho Chi Minh City continues to maintain a number of small-scale examination centers in areas far from the city center to reduce travel pressure and create favorable conditions for students.
The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training has planned 242 examination centers for the 10th grade entrance exam in the 2026-2027 school year, including 226 regular centers and 16 specialized centers, with a total of 6,443 examination rooms. Each examination center is equipped with at least 3 reserve rooms to handle any unforeseen situations.
It is expected that approximately 17,742 officials and teachers will be mobilized to serve as invigilators and support staff, along with security personnel, police, medical staff , electricity company personnel, and technicians, to ensure the exam takes place safely, seriously, and in accordance with regulations.
After the exam registration and nguyện vọng (preference) adjustments are completed, the Department will continue to review and update the enrollment data, and adjust the plan for exam locations, exam rooms, and personnel to suit the actual data.
According to the planned schedule, the exam paper preparation and printing will take place from May 24th to June 2nd. The grading process will be held from June 4th to June 9th. The review of exam papers is expected to take place at the end of June.
The entrance exam for 10th grade in the 2026-2027 school year will be held on June 1-2. Candidates will take exams in three subjects: Literature, Mathematics, and Foreign Language. Candidates applying for specialized or integrated classes will take an additional specialized or integrated subject exam as prescribed.
