As one of the first two candidates to leave the examination room at Tran Phu High School (Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi ), Le Duy Hung was quite confident after completing the Literature exam of the 2026 High School Graduation Examination. The male student predicted he could score around 7.5 points.
According to Hung, this year's exam questions are topical and relevant to students' lives. The social commentary section addresses science , technology, and artificial intelligence (AI) – issues that are receiving great attention from young people in the context of digital transformation and international integration.
"This topic has many aspects to analyze, making it easy for candidates to relate to reality and express their personal opinions," Hung shared.
In the literary analysis section, the exam asked for an analysis of the poem "The Leaves" by poet Nguyen Dinh Thi. Hung assessed it as a work rich in emotion, with simple language but containing many layers of meaning about life and humanity.
The poem was not unfamiliar to the students, providing an opportunity for them to develop their literary appreciation skills and express their thoughts. The male student said he had completed the exam requirements quite well and hoped to achieve the desired result.
After the high school graduation exam, Hung plans to apply to Hanoi University of Science and Technology, pursuing a major in engineering and technology that he loves.
