Preparing for foreign language certification exams has become a hot topic sparking much debate as these certificates have become one of the "tickets" to gaining admission to top universities in Vietnam. Currently, in most educational levels from primary school to university, foreign language certificates such as VSTEP, TOEIC, especially IELTS, are being prioritized. Many schools have shown favoritism by offering direct admissions or bonus points for candidates with these certificates or their equivalents. Many 12- year-old students are being praised for having an IELTS certificate, with some primary schools even offering IELTS preparation classes. Many public schools also set the goal of achieving IELTS certification, requiring parents to pay additional fees for the school to collaborate with language training institutes, leading to a distorted perception of obtaining this certificate. Amidst the "mania" for foreign language certificates, families spare no expense and heavily invest in their children's preparation at training centers with the aim of achieving the highest scores. However, university admission quotas based on foreign language certificate assessment are limited, intensifying the fierce competition and burdening students with pressure. The scenario of a student simultaneously preparing for high school graduation exams, aiming for international foreign language certificates, and taking competency assessments to enhance their chances of selection further exacerbates the heavy burden.
