On the morning of 28/5, during the 10th-grade public school entrance exam in Dong Nai, a female student was found at the wrong test center. Supervisors at Tam Hiep High School in Tam Hiep ward realized her mistake. Seeing her distress, traffic police officers on duty at the site immediately decided to use a special vehicle with sirens to transport her.
Within three minutes, the student arrived at Binh Da Junior High School, where she was able to complete the necessary procedures and enter the mathematics exam room on time.
According to the Dong Nai Department of Education and Training, the city has 44 exam sites. Candidates were scheduled to take the mathematics exam for 120 minutes and English for 60 minutes today. Tomorrow morning, all students will sit for the literature exam, which lasts 120 minutes. Those aspiring to specialized schools will take an additional corresponding subject.
Exam scores are used for admission to 24 public schools, with over 13,000 students expected to be admitted. Private schools, conversely, base their admissions on junior high school transcripts.

The issue of students arriving late or at the wrong 10th-grade exam site occurs annually due to various reasons, such as oversleeping or failing to read announcements thoroughly. In most cases, students receive assistance from community organizations and duty-bound authorities.
