The exam attracted 247 candidates from 11 high schools in the province, an increase of 34 students and 6 more high schools with candidates compared to the previous school year. This year, many district high schools had students taking the exam such as: Doan Thuong, Ha Bac, Kinh Mon, Quang Trung, Tue Tinh... Nguyen Trai High School for the Gifted had the largest number of candidates taking the exam with 207 students. Next was Thanh Ha High School with 10 students, the remaining high schools had from 2-6 students.
The number of candidates taking the exam is higher because this year the Department of Education and Training expanded the exam to include excellent 11th grade students from all high schools instead of only taking excellent 11th grade students from Nguyen Trai High School for the Gifted like last school year.
Candidates still take 11 subjects, including math, physics, chemistry, biology, computer science, literature, history, geography, English, French, Russian (French and Russian are only for students of Nguyen Trai High School for the Gifted). Each candidate only takes 1 subject. The written test lasts 180 minutes; the foreign language test tests listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. The computer science test tests programming to solve problems on a computer.
The exam takes place in 1 day, with 13 exam rooms, 40 invigilators, inspectors, supervisors, security guards, etc.

This exam is expected to take place at the end of December 2023.
