Registration schedule for the 2024 thinking assessment exams.

Associate Professor Dr. Nguyen Phong Dien - Deputy Director of Hanoi University of Science and Technology said that this year's exam was arranged earlier than every year with the goal of allowing students who are confident in their knowledge to take the exam early.

In addition, another goal is to help candidates get familiar with the content and structure of the test, the test software and especially to assess their current thinking ability in order to have a suitable review plan.

The structure of this year's exam remains the same as in 2023, consisting of 3 parts: Mathematical Thinking, Reading Comprehension and Scientific Thinking, in which the content of the exam sections does not focus on testing knowledge of subjects but focuses on assessing individual thinking abilities. In particular, the Scientific Thinking section has "erased the boundaries" between subject combinations, in line with the content of the new high school program.

"Candidates should not take two exams close together because they will not improve their abilities and will have poor test results. Learning basic knowledge is very important. The exam is not 'tricky' but asks for a lot of broad knowledge. With a large number of questions and at 3 levels of thinking, candidates must be very urgent and have a good test-taking strategy," said Mr. Dien.
