Students with foreign language certificates exempt from foreign language examsRegarding the matter of the use of foreign language certificates to enjoy exemption from foreign language exams in the high school graduation exam in 2023, Associate Professor Huynh Van Chuong, Director of the Quality Management Department of the Ministry of Education and Training, said that the official dispatch to the Departments of Education and Training stated that candidates registered for the 2023 high school graduation exam may use foreign language certificates issued after September 10, 2022 for exemption from the foreign language test. In its previous document to guide the verification of foreign language proficiency certificates to exempt foreign language exams from the high school graduation exam in 2023, the Department of Quality Management required only twelfth graders who receive foreign language proficiency certificates issued before September 10, 2022 and after November 11, 2022 will be exempted from the National High School Graduation Exams’ English module. As twelfth-grade students are going to sit for their important exams; so the new regulation on the recognition of foreign language proficiency certificates to exempt foreign language exams in the high school graduation exam has confused many candidates in the past few days. However, universities still use foreign language proficiency certificates issued after September 10, 2022 as usual for admissions. For example, the Foreign Trade University still accepts foreign language proficiency certificates issued after September 10, 2022 when it announced the admission score on the evening of June 14.
