According to Prof. Dr. Le Ngoc Thanh, Principal of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy, this year's graduating students and trainees all studied during the most intense period of the Covid-19 pandemic.
During the years 2020-2022, when the pandemic covered the whole country, students had to adapt to prolonged online learning, lacking practice conditions, especially in fields requiring clinical practice such as Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing...
The school's on-time graduation rate is high, with most students graduating above 82%, and for the first time, eight students graduated with honors.

According to the school's leaders, this is a big step forward because previously most medical students graduated at a good and excellent level, the rate of excellent students was very modest due to the strict training characteristics and comprehensive requirements.
In particular, this year the first 3 students completed the residency program, including 2 students with excellent grades, and 34 master's students in 3 key majors (Pediatrics, Ophthalmology, Dentistry - Maxillofacial Surgery) graduated.
