This year's exam is considered quite special because this is the first year the exam is organized for two groups of candidates following two different educational programs, with two separate sets of exam questions and regulations, so there are many points to note in the exam supervision and exam taking process.

The difference between the two groups of candidates:

Firstly, for the examination room for candidates following the 2006 General Education Program, print all 24 exam codes.

For exam rooms for candidates taking the 2018 General Education Program, only print enough exam papers according to the number of candidates in the exam room. For example, a room with 10 candidates taking the Physics exam, print from code 01 to 10.

Second, in the exam invigilation work, candidates taking the 2006 General Education Program must only take the second subject in the optional/combined exam and must be present 10 minutes before the exam time; candidates taking the 2018 General Education Program must be present from the beginning of the exam and wait in the waiting room.

The time between two subjects in the optional/combined exam between the two programs is also different. For candidates taking the exam under the 2006 General Education Program, it is 10 minutes, and for candidates taking the exam under the 2018 General Education Program, it is 15 minutes.

For Geography, candidates taking the 2006 General Education Program are allowed to bring atlases into the exam room, while candidates taking the 2018 General Education Program are not allowed to bring atlases into the exam room. These differences require invigilators to have a firm grasp of the regulations and clearly distinguish between the two programs to avoid confusion. At the same time, they must provide clear instructions to candidates, especially before the exam papers are distributed.

The 2025 High School Graduation Exam in Lam Dong province has 1 Examination Council with 40 official examination sites (39 examination sites for candidates taking the 2018 General Education Program and 1 examination site for candidates taking the 2006 General Education Program) located in 10 districts and cities in the province.
