These majors have admission scores that "knock out" even the best students, resulting in mass failures.

However, with the cutoff scores for most majors above 26 points, including the highest scores in Chemistry Education at 29.8, Mathematics Education at 29.55, Physics Education at 29.48, and Biology Education at 29.46, a large number of excellent students failed to get admitted through this method. In the majors with high cutoff scores, even students with 9-9.5 points in each subject failed.

According to information from the school, the number of applications for admission based on academic transcripts this year has increased 1.5 times compared to 2023. More than 14,000 candidates submitted applications using their transcripts, but only about 400 were admitted through this method, meaning nearly 14,000 high-achieving students were rejected.

In 2023, based on high school graduation exam scores, the admission scores for Ho Chi Minh City University of Education ranged from 19 to 27 points. The Literature Education major had the highest admission score at 27 points, followed by History Education at 26.85 points.

Known as the "dominant" major in terms of admission scores, this year, only a perfect score of 10/10 is required to be admitted to the Computer Science (Advanced Program) at the University of Science (Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City) through the priority admission method as stipulated by the Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City.

Three other majors at this school also have cutoff scores of 9.5/10, such as artificial intelligence (9.9), data science (9.85), and the computer and information technology group (9.5). In addition, a number of majors have cutoff scores above 9 on a 10-point scale.

With this method, the admission score is the average of the average scores of subjects in grades 10, 11, and 12 corresponding to the subject combination for each major registered by the candidate, plus any priority points (if applicable), ranked from highest to lowest until the quota is filled.

In this context, "total score over 3 years" is the sum of the average scores in grades 10, 11, and 12 for the corresponding subjects in the admission subject combination.

With such low admission scores, a large number of high-achieving students who applied to the school were unable to get accepted.

In the method based on the results of the aptitude test of the Ho Chi Minh City National University, the computer science major of the University of Science continues to "shock" with a cutoff score of up to 1,052 out of 1,200 points.

In 2023, the cutoff scores for graduation in Computer Science at the University of Science (Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City) were 28.05; Artificial Intelligence 27; and Computer Science and Information Technology 26.5.

At the University of Social Sciences and Humanities (Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City), this year, many majors with admission scores based on academic transcripts also "defeated" many excellent students.

The highest GPA-based admission scores were in multimedia communications (28.85 points), journalism (28.5), and international relations (27.8)...

To be admitted to these programs, candidates must have an average GPA of 9.3 to over 9.6 in each subject of the admission test combination.

In 2023, based on high school graduation scores, journalism (C00 combination) was the major with the highest admission score at the Ho Chi Minh City University of Social Sciences and Humanities, with 28 points.

In addition, some majors with scores of 27 or higher include tourism and travel service management (C00: 27.4 points); multimedia communication (D14, D15: 27.25 points; D01: 27.02 points); literature (C00: 27 points), psychology (C00: 27 points)...
