The admission scores of most schools are calculated according to the formula announced by the Department, which is the sum of three exam subjects with Math and Literature multiplied by two, with a maximum of 50.

Students who score 45 points or more will be considered for 97.5 million VND (50% of tuition fees), while students who score 47 points or more will be exempted from tuition fees, totaling 195 million VND.

Not applying the Department's admission score calculation formula, Luong The Vinh Secondary and High School calculates the admission score as the total score of three subjects: Math, Literature and English, no subject is multiplied by the same priority score coefficient (0.5-1.5).

Luong The Vinh School accepts scores of 25.5 and above, applicable to both Cau Giay and Tan Trieu campuses, with enrollment starting on July 3. These two campuses enroll 315 and 250 students, respectively. The total enrollment fee is 16.5 million VND, of which 4.5 million VND is the first month's tuition.

Archimedes Dong Anh Primary, Secondary and High School also applies its own formula for calculating admission scores. Specifically, the school's admission score is the sum of three subjects, of which Math and English are doubled. This year's admission score is 41/50 with 60 targets. The school organizes admission from July 2 until the number of candidates is full.
