The candidate arrived nearly 1.5 hours late so he was not allowed to take the 10th grade entrance exam in Ho Chi Minh City in 2025 (Photo: Contributor).

According to initial records, this candidate is a student at Kim Dong Secondary School. He arrived at the exam site gate at around 9:30 a.m. on June 6, 1.5 hours late from the start time of the literature test.

When hearing the announcement that he was not allowed to take the exam, the candidate burst into tears and said he was late because he thought the exam time was the same as the check-in time the day before.

Faced with the unfortunate situation and worried about the candidate's state of mind, the examination board asked a local police officer to help take him home.

According to the regulations of the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City, the time to open the exam bag is 7:30 am, the time to distribute the exam papers is 7:55 am and the time to start calculating the exam time is 8 am. Candidates who arrive more than 15 minutes late after the exam time signal is given will not be allowed to take the exam that day.

Thus, due to confusion about the exam time, the male student above "lost" the opportunity to enter a public school.

To avoid unfortunate situations like the above, the Department of Education and Training of Ho Chi Minh City notes that candidates need to be present at the examination council (exam venue)/exam room at the specified time; present their citizen identification card and registration form. In case they have not been issued a citizen identification card, they must present their student card.

If there are any errors in the last name, middle name, first name, date of birth, priority subjects must immediately report to the supervisor or the person on duty at the examination council for timely handling.

There were 76,435 candidates registered for the 10th grade entrance exam in 2025. According to the quick summary data, there were 76,154 candidates taking the literature exam, reaching 99.63%, with 281 candidates absent. In the foreign language exam, there were 275 candidates absent. The number of candidates taking the exam was 76,160, reaching 99.64%.

In a quick report on the first two exam sessions, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training said that unusual situations had occurred. Among them, at the exam site of Do Van Day Secondary School (Hoc Mon District), two candidates marked strange characters at the beginning of the answer sheet.

After discovering the incident, the examination board instructed the candidates to continue taking the test, made a record of the irregularities, and warned them that they might be graded together.

At the Tran Hung Dao Secondary School Examination Council (District 12), a candidate used two colors of ink. The Examination Council still allowed the candidate to continue doing the test as usual, but made a record of the irregularity and warned the candidate.

At the examination board of Nguyen An Khuong Secondary School (Hoc Mon district), there was a candidate whose health was not good and he could not sit and take the test. This candidate was arranged to take the test in the reserve room.

Another case at the Le Van Tam Secondary School Examination Council (Binh Thanh District) had a candidate vomit and needed medical assistance. The Council instructed the candidate to continue taking the test if he returned.

Today (June 7), more than 76,000 candidates taking the 2025 Ho Chi Minh City 10th grade entrance exam took the math exam. This is also the last exam subject of the general education system.

On the first day of the exam for literature and English, candidates were quite excited because the exam was assessed as being within their ability, many students were confident that "it would not be difficult to get an 8".

However, when it came to math, the feeling of anxiety came again because in last year's exam, many candidates burst into tears because of the strange questions, and many students could not complete the exam.
