Pedagogy continues to be the focus, pedagogy benchmarks will increase and be very high

According to experts, the education sector continues to be the focus of the 2025 university admissions season. Based on the high school exam score distribution data and new policy factors, this year's benchmark scores will increase slightly, but there will be clear differentiation by sector and by school.

Pedagogical benchmarks increased slightly and very high

The Ministry of Education and Training has just announced the percentile of total scores of some traditional combinations based on the results of the high school graduation exam. The Ministry also announced the floor scores for the health and education sectors in 2025.

For the pedagogical major, the minimum score for admission to majors in the group of university-level teacher training majors is 19 points. For the majors of Physical Education, Music Pedagogy and Fine Arts Pedagogy, the minimum score is 18 points for the combination of 3 cultural subjects. Other combination of admissions are implemented according to the provisions of the current admission regulations.

Similarly, the minimum score for admission to the College-level Early Childhood Education program is 16.5 for the combination of 3 cultural subjects; other combination of admissions are implemented according to the provisions of the current admission regulations.

Mr. Phung Quan, admissions expert at Ho Chi Minh City University of Science, said that the education sector will continue to be the focus of the 2025 university admissions season. Based on the data of the high school exam scores and new policy factors, this year's benchmark scores are expected to increase slightly, while there will be clear differentiation by industry and by school.

According to Mr. Quan, the percentile data shows that the score distribution of admission combinations for pedagogical majors such as A00, A01, D01... will change in 2025. The complete elimination of early admission means that candidates can only register their wishes once after knowing their exam scores, thereby increasing the density of wishes for top majors and schools, making the benchmark scores more unpredictable.

The predicted change in benchmark scores is around 0.25 to 0.75 points, depending on the major and enrollment target. With a total score of 25 or more, candidates can confidently apply for pedagogical majors at major universities. Candidates with a score of 21-24 should prioritize local pedagogical colleges, less competitive majors, or apply for admission using a combination of high score advantages. However, candidates need to rank their wishes strategically, reasonably allocating between dream majors and safe choices.

Mr. Quan acknowledged that in 2025, the benchmark scores for the education sector are likely to continue to increase slightly, but not evenly. The differentiation will be clear between social and natural sciences, central and local schools. Therefore, candidates need to closely monitor the score distribution data, take advantage of their strengths and register their preferences intelligently to increase their chances of admission.
