Accordingly, the Thinking Assessment Test (TSA) consists of three parts: Mathematical Thinking (60 minutes), Reading Comprehension (30 minutes) and Scientific Thinking/Problem Solving (60 minutes) with three levels of thinking assessment (reactive thinking, deductive thinking and higher-order thinking).

The questions are constructed in the form of multiple choice with four types of structures: Select the correct answer, true/false, drag and drop, and short answer.

Unlike other exams, the thinking assessment exam does not focus on testing knowledge, so it does not require candidates to spend a lot of time reviewing, because thinking training has been formed throughout the learning process.

In 2023, the thinking assessment test is considered to have many advantages for students' test-taking process. The test is adjusted to be compact (duration 150 minutes) and organized in the form of multiple-choice tests on computers.

The university admission fields that can use the TSA exam results have been expanded, including Science and Technology, Economics, Engineering, Industry, Agriculture, Finance, Banking, and Medicine.

The 2024 Thinking Assessment Test will be organized by Hanoi University of Science and Technology in Hanoi, Hung Yen, Nam Dinh, Hai Phong, Thai Nguyen, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Da Nang...

Meanwhile, in 2024, Hanoi National University will organize 6 rounds of capacity assessment exams with a scale of about 75,000 exams, 2 rounds less than in 2023. The earliest exam round is expected to take place on March 23 and 24; the final exam round is expected to take place on June 1 and 2.

This schedule may change based on the number of registered candidates and the 2024 high school graduation exam schedule. For the convenience of candidates, the exams will take place on Saturdays and Sundays.

Regarding location, next year's exam will take place in 10 provinces and cities including: Hanoi, Thai Nguyen, Hai Phong, Nam Dinh, Hung Yen, Hai Duong, Thai Binh, Thanh Hoa, Nghe An, Ha Tinh.
