SIMILAR TO TRAN DAI NGHIA’S EXAM: WHAT SHOULD STUDENTS IN THU DUC CITY & DISTRICT 7 PREPARE FOR THE 6TH GRADE EXAM IN THE 2024-2025 SCHOOL YEAR?

Five secondary schools have released details about their upcoming 2024-2025 grade 6 entrance exams, including:

Tran Quoc Toan 1 Secondary School (Thu Duc City)

Hoa Lu Secondary School (Thu Duc City)

Binh Tho Secondary School (Thu Duc City)

Tran Dai Nghia High School for the Gifted (District 1)

Nguyen Huu Tho Secondary School (District 7)

These schools implement advanced, internationally-oriented programs with class sizes capped at 35 students.

In particular, the exam structure of this year’s advanced and integrated schools is said to be similar to that of Tran Dai Nghia Specialized School in previous years, with the test consisting of 2 parts: Multiple Choice and Essay on 3 topics: Vietnamese, Math and Logical Thinking, and English. For 5th grade students in Thu Duc City and District 7 who are aiming to take the entrance exam to the above schools, careful preparation for the test is extremely important.

Exam Format and Content

The multiple-choice section consists of English questions testing knowledge in Math, English, Science, History, and Geography with a duration of 30 minutes. The 60-minute written section is divided into three parts: English Proficiency (reading and writing), Maths & IQ, and Literature.

Given the similarity to previous Tran Dai Nghia High School exams, this year’s exams for advanced schools will require diligent preparation. Students aiming for any of these schools should study hard to achieve their best possible scores.

For 4th and 5th grade students

1. Set clear goals for this academic year

Choosing the desired school and setting specific academic goals is the first step to success. This gives students the drive and determination to reach their aspirations. Parents and teachers can support students by monitoring their progress and making adjustments to their study plans as required.

2. Build a strong foundation of knowledge and practice exam skills

To excel in the entrance exam, students need to develop a strong foundation in Mathematics, Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, and Literature. Along with knowledge, students should also practice their language skills (English – Vietnamese), time management, and reading comprehension, etc. by regularly taking practice tests and seeking feedback from teachers to improve their weaknesses.

3. Design a systematic study plan for 4th-grade students

A well-structured learning plan is key to achieving academic goals. Starting to build a foundation from the 4th grade can reduce stress for children in their final years, while also giving them more time to prepare knowledge and skills.

4. Opting for experienced teachers and quality learning materials

Effective teaching, tailored to each student, and high-quality resources are essential for academic success. Parents should seek out experienced teachers who not only impart knowledge but also motivate their students.

5. Integrated playing, learning, and exploring

Combining studying with enjoyable activities is necessary for students to develop holistically and maintain a positive mindset. Extracurricular activities, sports, and exploring nature not only help students relieve stress but also stimulate creative thinking and develop social skills.
