University Entrance Examination is very important to Vietnamese students. High school graduates have to take it and get high results to be admitted to universities. The pressure on the candidates remains very high despite the measures that have been taken to reduce the heat around these exams, since securing a place in a state university is considered a major step towards a successful career for young people, especially those from rural areas or disadvantaged families. In the year 2004, it was estimated that nearly 1 million Vietnamese students took the University Entrance Examination, but on average only 1 out of 5 candidates succeeded. Normally, candidates take 3 exam subjects, and each lasts 180 minutes for the fixed group of subjects they choose. There are 4 fixed groups of subjects: Group A: Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry; Group B: Mathematics, Chemistry and Biology; Group C: Literature, History, and Geography; Group D: Literature, Foreign Language, and Mathematics.
In addition to universities, there are community colleges, art and technology institutes, professional secondary schools, and vocational schools which offer degrees or certificates from a-few-month to 2-year courses.
According to Vietnam’s Ministry of Education and Training, there are currently 23 non-public universities, accounting for 11% of the total number of universities. These non-public universities are currently training 119,464 students or 11.7% of the total number of students. The government is planning to increase the number of non-public universities to 30% by 2007.

C. It takes more than 2 years to complete vocational courses.

Đáp án B
Giải thích: Ở đây so sánh từ chỉ dẫn và học từ sách giáo khoa, học sinh đến học được ngang nhau nên ta dùng cấu trúc so sánh ngang bằng as adj/adv as. Việc học được nhiều hay ít không thể đếm bằng con số một, hai nên không dùng many được mà phải dùng much.
So/ such...that: quá...đến nỗi mà
Dịch nghĩa: Nghiên cứu chỉ ra rằng, học sinh, đặc biệt là học sinh cấp 3 và sinh viên đại học, có thể học cũng như làm nhiều từ những chỉ dẫn và sách giáo khoa.
