At the two exam locations, Vo Nguyen Giap High School for the Gifted and Dong Hoi High School, candidates arrived very early. On the stone benches and tree roots of the schools, candidates gathered to discuss with each other the knowledge they had learned. Some students found a quiet corner to review their lessons, while others checked their exam cards, pens, rulers, etc. to prepare everything they needed for the exam room.
Before the exam, many parents encouraged their children to be calm and confident to do well on the test. Security forces at the exam site and youth volunteers were always attentive and ready to help candidates when needed.

Ms. Vo Thi Hoang Thanh in Duc Ninh commune (Dong Hoi city) whose child is taking the Geography entrance exam expressed: Seeing their child studying hard, staying up late and waking up early, parents are very worried. Both worried about their child's health and afraid that their child will be sad if they do not pass the exam to get into the specialized school as desired, the family always creates a comfortable mentality for their child, encourages and motivates them to help reduce the pressure of exams.
"Although I was very nervous, I always tried to act normal so that my child would feel comfortable and confident about himself. Today, I took my child to the exam site very early to avoid traffic jams and stayed at the school gate to wait for him to finish the exam. What makes us parents feel warm is that there are functional forces supporting in all aspects, security and order are guaranteed...", Ms. Vo Thi Hoang Thanh expressed.
Quickly wiping away the sweat running down his face, Mr. Tran Xuan Hieu, in Hoan Lao town (Bo Trach), whose child is taking the Physics entrance exam, confided: Thinking that his child is studying at a "village" school (Hoan Trach Secondary School) and does not have good learning conditions like his friends in the city, he was quite worried when his child decided to take the exam to the school with the best educational quality in the province. However, believing in his child's ability and wanting him to have the opportunity to try and experience, the family supports and accompanies him in his studies and exams.

“With the desire to become a student of the school named after General Vo Nguyen Giap, my child has worked very hard in his studies. In addition to the curriculum in class, he has searched for materials from many different sources and diligently studied. I am also very satisfied with the logistics at the exam site. The organization of the entrance exam seriously and strictly will hopefully bring fairness to the candidates,” Mr. Hieu added.
Many parents from localities such as Tuyen Hoa, Le Thuy, Quang Trach, etc. expressed that they had never thought of sending their children to the city to study because of the difficulty of transportation and their children were not old enough to be independent, although their children always had good academic results in middle school. However, when they learned that the school had a dormitory that met the boarding needs of students from far away and witnessed their children's efforts in studying, they felt secure and created all conditions for their children to enter the exam with the best mindset.
With the dream of becoming a student of Vo Nguyen Giap High School for the Gifted, some students have had a study plan since entering middle school. Many students have spent time studying specialized subjects according to their strengths and wishes.
