This study seeks an advantageous direction for Korean language education and assessment in Vietnam by analyzing the questions in the first Vietnamese university entrance examination, held on 2021. The results are as follows. First, consistency must be ensured to increase the reliability of the test; however, this study confirmed that the test was not uniformly consistent. It is desirable that the vocabulary and grammar of the questions be at the same level. Second, it is necessary to adjust the number of items in accordance with their importance and frequency. Third, a listening test or speaking test may be added to assess the learner's actual communication skills. Fourth, the Ministry of Education should create and share a database of test-related information such as previous year questions, test results, and test taker statistics for use in various fields such as curriculum and textbook development. It is hoped that this study will inaugurate a discussion of this test, as it holds significance as the first and only national-level test in Vietnam other than the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK).
