How to convert admission scores to Hanoi University of Science and Technology

(Dan Tri) - Along with the expected benchmark scores of 65 programs, this morning Hanoi University of Science and Technology announced how to convert admission scores in 2025.

Hanoi University of Science and Technology announced the difference in scores between admission groups using high school graduation exam scores as follows:

Accordingly, for the combinations used for admission to the technical group including A00, A01, A02, B00, D07, D26, D28, D29 and K01, there will be no score deviation.

The combinations used for admission to the economic , education, and foreign language groups including D01 and D04 also have no score deviation.

The difference in scores between the combinations used for admission to the technical group (A00, A01, A02, B00, D07, D26, D28, D29 and K01) and the combinations used for admission to the economic,education and foreign language groups (D01 and D04) is +0.5 points to the standard score when considering the same training program for the combinations A00, A01, A02, B00, D07, D26, D28, D29 and K01.

For example, the FL3-Chinese for Science and Technology program is recruiting with 3 high school graduation score combinations: K01, D01 and D04. If the admission score according to combination D01 is 20 points, the admission score according to combination D04 is still 20 points, and the admission score according to combination K01 is 20.5 points.

Converting benchmark scores between admission methods

Candidates can use the conversion tool of Hanoi University of Science and Technology at the following link: https://tsbkhn.shinyapps.io/QuyDoi-2025BK/.

Based on the general guidelines of the Ministry of Education and Training, Hanoi University of Science and Technology applies the Percentile Equating method to find equivalent benchmark scores between the three university admission methods including: Talent Selection (XTTN), Admission based on Thinking Assessment (TSA) scores and Admission based on High School Graduation Exam scores.

Hanoi University of Science and Technology also conducted statistics and analyzed enrollment data of the past 3 years, different admission combinations, analyzed the distribution of XTTN scores by areas, the distribution of scores on the thinking assessment test, and the distribution of scores on the 2025 high school graduation exam with 2 original combinations A00 (math-physics-chemistry) and D01 (math-literature-English) to serve as a basis for determining the correlation percentile range.

The correlation percentile table between admission methods of Hanoi University of Science and Technology is determined through the percentile method on the data set of candidates with both TSA exam scores and high school exam scores according to combination A00;

The dataset of candidates with both TSA exam scores and high school exam scores according to combination D01; Top% of XTTN scores for areas 1.2 and 1.3 are calculated based on the total number of candidates with scores according to the XTTN method from the floor score to the highest level; Top% of DGTD scores are calculated based on the total number of candidates with TSA scores from the floor score to the highest level.

From the correlation table with specific percentile score range values, the conversion function between different admission methods will be interpolated. Accordingly, from the standard score in the percentile range of this admission method, it will be interpolated to the standard score in the corresponding percentile range of another admission method according to the following formula:

Equivalent benchmark conversion table for 2025 data

From the published score data of the methods, the correlation table of standard score levels between the 2025 admission methods of Hanoi University of Science and Technology is specifically determined according to the two original combinations A00 and D01 as follows:

Table 1. Correlation table of standard score levels between methods with base combination A00

Table 2. Correlation table of standard score levels between methods with the original combination D01

Illustration of how to calculate equivalent standard point conversion:

For example, the benchmark score (admission score) of the MS2-Microelectronics Engineering and Nanotechnology program of Hanoi University of Science and Technology using the high school graduation exam score according to the A00 combination is 27.68 points (x = 27.68).

Thus, this benchmark score will belong to the 3rd percentile (Around 3) in Table 1, with a high school score value from [27.55 - 28.46). Then the equivalent benchmark score for the TSA exam score will belong to the corresponding percentile (around 3) in Table 1 with a TSA score value from [69.88 - 76.23). From there, the corresponding conversion factors will be determined as:

a = 27.55; b = 28.46; c = 69.88; d = 76.23

Applying the interpolation formula to calculate the equivalent standard score for the GDTD exam score y from the high school standard score according to the combination A00 x = 27.68 will be calculated as follows:

Similarly, the equivalent benchmark score for the XTTN score of area 1.2 for the MS2 program will be in the corresponding percentile range (Interval 3) in Table 1 with the XTTN score value of area 1.2 from [72.88 - 78.50). Then the corresponding conversion factors will be:

a = 27.55; b = 28.46; c = 72.88; d = 78.50

Applying the interpolation formula to calculate the equivalent standard score for the XTTN area 1.2 z score from the high school standard score according to the combination A00 x = 27.68 will be calculated as follows:

Similarly, for example, the benchmark score of the EM1-Energy Management program/industry using the high school graduation exam score according to the D01 combination is 22.56 points (x = 22.56). Thus, this benchmark score will be in the 5th percentile (about 5) in Table 2, with a high school score value from [21.65 - 22.83).

Then the equivalent benchmark for the TSA test score will belong to the corresponding percentile range (around 5) in table 2 with TSA score values from [55.22 - 59.71). From there, the corresponding conversion factors will be determined as:

a = 21.65; b = 22.83; c = 55.22; d = 59.71

Applying the interpolation formula to calculate the equivalent standard score for the TSA exam score y from the high school standard score according to the combination D01 x = 22.56 will be calculated as follows:

For the XTTN scores of areas 1.2 and 1.3, there is no corresponding percentile range in Table 2, so the equivalent benchmark for the XTTN scores of areas 1.2 and 1.3 will be the floor score of 55 points.

In 2025, Hanoi University of Science and Technology will enroll 9,680 students, with 3 methods: talent selection method, thinking assessment test score selection method, and high school graduation exam score selection method.

According to Hanoi University of Science and Technology, the school determined the relative score range in 2025 based on the analysis of admission data from the past 3 years, from different admission combinations, analysis of the talent admission score spectrum by area, the score spectrum of the thinking assessment test, the score spectrum of the high school graduation exam with the original combination of A00 (math-physics-chemistry).
