The benchmark for the Health block has increased, what should candidates do to be "sure" of passing the university entrance exam?

The Ministry of Education and Training has just announced the threshold to ensure input quality (floor score) for the group of health majors with university-level practice certificates in 2020. Accordingly, the floor score for the majors of Medicine and Dentistry is 22 points; Traditional Medicine and Pharmacy is 21 points; the remaining majors are 19 points. According to experts, with the high score range of the high school graduation exam like this year, the expected admission score to top medical and pharmaceutical schools may increase by 2-3 points compared to 2019, approaching the record score of 2017. The question is, with the expected admission score increasing, what should candidates who love the health major do to not fail their university dream?

Health sector benchmark scores may approach 2017 record score

Compared to 2019, the minimum score for the health sector this year is 1 point higher (compared to the corresponding sector groups). This is the minimum score applied to candidates in region 3 with the minimum score (without coefficient) of all combinations of 3 exams/subjects.

The expected benchmark scores for top medical and pharmaceutical schools may increase by 2-3 points compared to 2019, approaching the record score of 2017.

Assessing the threshold score for the health sector in 2020, Prof. Dr. Ta Thanh Van - President of Hanoi Medical University said that this is a threshold that ensures reasonable input quality, ensuring a common level of enrollment between public and non-public universities.

According to Professor Ta Thanh Van, the floor score does not have much meaning for the top universities training in health majors because in reality, the admission scores to these schools are much higher than the floor score every year.

Statistics of the 2020 high school graduation exam results, round 1, show that the score distribution of all traditional admission blocks has increased. In particular, the percentage of candidates with high scores in the B00 block (Math - Chemistry - Biology) has increased sharply compared to last year. Specifically, the whole country has 140 candidates with scores from 29 to nearly 30 points; 712 candidates with scores from 28 to nearly 29 points and 7,369 candidates with scores from 27 points or higher.

According to experts, with this score range, the admission score rate in 2020 for the medical and pharmaceutical industries will approach the record score of 2017 and increase by 2-3 points compared to 2019.

What should candidates who love health majors do to avoid failing their university dreams?

According to experts, it is very difficult to fail the university entrance exam with 30 points, but the admission scores to top medical and pharmaceutical schools such as Hanoi Medical University, Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Hanoi University of Pharmacy, Military Medical Academy, Thai Binh University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Hue University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine, etc. will certainly increase. Particularly for Hanoi Medical University, candidates with 27-28 points if applying for the General Medicine program in Hanoi will have a low chance of passing.

Dai Nam University is a university providing multidisciplinary training services with the core training axis being community health protection and care.

According to experts, instead of narrowing their research scope to the top 2-3 schools, candidates who love health-related majors can expand their research scope to choose their favorite major at good universities with not too high admission scores.

For example, if you like Medicine and Pharmacy, in addition to top schools such as Hanoi Medical University, Hanoi University of Pharmacy, Ho Chi Minh City University of Medicine and Pharmacy... candidates can refer to the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy of Dai Nam University - a training institution that is well-rated for its training program, teaching staff, facilities, especially the equipment system for practice.

Experts also emphasize that input is only one step, the training process is important, the products of doctors and medical staff will be determined by the training process.

Nowadays, although the idea of public and private schools is no longer too strong, many candidates when choosing a university still worry that private schools will not have good teachers like public schools. This is a wrong thought because currently, students of public and private schools all have the same teachers.

Surveys at non-public universities such as Dai Nam University, Thang Long University... all schools have a number of selected guest lecturers invited from top public schools such as Hanoi Medical University, Hanoi University of Pharmacy, Military Medical Academy, Thai Nguyen University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Academy of Traditional Medicine...

Not to mention that private schools today have many policies to attract talent, so 100% of the school's permanent teaching staff are carefully selected and imbued with the spirit of "treating students as customers to serve training, bringing satisfaction to customers with the quality of their lectures.

On the other hand, to compete and affirm their reputation and brand, non-public schools must constantly invest in facilities; improve their programs and teaching methods; improve and develop their teaching staff; promote cooperation with businesses and international training cooperation... especially to fulfill their output commitments to students.
