Every year, the government has to organize 2 big exams out of so many ones: high school graduation and university entrance exam. These exams are just about 10 wks away each other. In order to do it, we have to spend a lot of time for preparation and money to organize. Below are some facts:
It costs us time to organize many phases for testing.
o Entrance exam of university this year will be held in 2 phases as normal. The first phase will run between 4-5 Jul for those who registered for group A and second phase will fall between 9-10 Jul for group B,C,D. The college phase will follow by 16-17 Jul
We spend so many resources for preparation:
o Logistics: Up to now, there are more than 1,5mil applicants for university entrance exam while college entrance one just received 620 000 applicants which made it account for 25% compared to university exam. With huge amount of applicants, it could give more pressure for university and college committee to find testing place which is bigger enough to handle that number of applicant
o Money: Moreover, we have to re-spend money again for renting room for testing while applicants should pay again ( 60 000VND) for these tests. In short, applicants will pay 12.6 billions in total. With cost increase, there is another proposal that each applicant should pay 100 000 which could help university/college committee be able to avoid financially loose. That means total spending could be higher than 12.6 bil.
o Committees have to hire many teacher supervisors during the test to ensure the effectiveness of this exam. Plus, salary for teachers to give marks for exams would be another burden to spend
o Although with good preparation, most of the time, student attendance is much lower than registered. One of the obvious reasons is that students apply for two or more universities and they finally choose one to attend. This will cause wasteful because we have to hire everything : place/teacher, etc…
Above are some numbers. So let’s discuss:
- Do you agree with above ideas?
- If yes, do you see any other disadvantages?
- If no, why?
- Do you think we should combine university entrance exam and high school graduation into one? Why?
- What difficulty/favour will you have if we do with that direction?
- How can we fix those difficulties?
- Is there any other way that we can make this more efficient?
