Eligibility for Priority Points under Category 2 After Studying for 3 Years in Region III, Ethnic Minority Mountainous Areas?

Yes, allow me to ask about the priority point addition policies in high school graduation consideration. I have permanent residence registration in an area that is NOT classified as region I, II, III ethnic mountainous area, but I studied 3 years of high school in a locality classified as region I, II, III ethnic mountainous area. So, am I eligible for the type 2 priority point addition policy for high school graduation consideration? Is it necessary to meet both conditions of having permanent residence in a mountainous area and studying 2/3 years not in an urban area?

According to Clause 2 Article 39 of the High School Graduation Examination Regulations issued in conjunction with Circular 15/2020/TT-BGDDT, the following is stipulated:

Bonus Points for Category 2: Add 0.25 points for candidates belonging to one of the following groups:

- Kinh people and foreigners residing in Vietnam with permanent residence status for 3 years or more (up to the date of the exam) in particularly difficult communes, border communes, safe zone communes under the investment scope of Program 135; in particularly difficult communes in coastal and island areas as per the current regulations of the Prime Minister of the Government of Vietnam; communes in area I, II, III in ethnic and mountainous regions as per the current regulations of the Prime Minister of the Government of Vietnam.

- Studying at high schools not located in the inner-city districts of cities directly under the Central Government for at least two-thirds of the high school study period.

Thus, if you fall into any of the conditions mentioned above, you will receive bonus points in Category 2. It is not required to meet both conditions to receive bonus points.
Please refer to some of the following articles:

- 3 years of high school study in 3 different areas, how is the priority score calculated?
- Does the third prize in a provincial excellent student competition earn university admission bonus points?

Respectfully!
