The benchmark score of grade 10 of Doan Ket school increased sharply by 6.5 points after a year of "rock bottom"

Doan Ket High School is in the group of 11 public schools that increased their entrance score standards in 2025 in Hanoi .

Notably, the remaining 10 schools only increased by about 0.3-1.2 points compared to 2024. Doan Ket school alone increased by about 6.5 points.

This year, the school's benchmark score is 20.75 on a scale of 30, with an average of 6.92 points per subject. Last year, the school's benchmark score was 23.75 on a scale of 50, with an average of 4.75 points per subject.

The benchmark score of Doan Ket School in 2024 was shocking because it dropped by 16.25 points, from the top to the bottom, and at the same time became the only school in the inner city on the list of the lowest benchmark scores in Hanoi.

The main reason for this situation is that the number of first-choice applicants to the school is less than the enrollment quota.

The Hanoi Department of Education and Training then decided to allow Doan Ket School to recruit students across the city (recruiting throughout the city, candidates do not need to register their wishes in advance).

The Department gave the school 62 overflow quotas, with admission scores of 25.75 and above. However, 72 students were admitted. The candidate with the highest score in the supplementary admission round was 40.5 points, the candidate with the lowest score was 38.75 points, 13 points higher than the threshold.

With the number of non-specialized grade 10 quotas increasing by nearly 5,000, the benchmark scores for public grade 10 in Hanoi this year have decreased quite significantly, especially in the group of schools with a competition ratio of less than 1.

According to statistics from the Department of Education and Training's benchmark data, 92 out of 115 schools reduced their entrance benchmark scores, equivalent to 80%.

The lowest reduction is 0.1 points/subject - equivalent to a reduction of 0.3 total points. The deepest reduction is 2.8 points/subject - equivalent to a reduction of 8.4 total points. This is the case of Tho Xuan High School, the school with the lowest competition rate in the city this year.

Many schools reduced their benchmark scores by 3 points or more, such as Nguyen Trai (old Ba Dinh), Nguyen Trai (old Thuong Tin), Phung Khac Khoan (old Thach That), Van Xuan, Da Phuc, Thuong Cat...

Schools that decreased by 4 points or more compared to 2024 include Thach Ban, Ung Hoa A, and Phuc Loi.
