Be careful on Thursday! CSAT is coming!

Winter is coming... 

- game of thrones-
I like this sentence.

In Korea, there is a CSAT(College Scholastic Ability Test).
If you think about SAT, you will know what it feels like.

what is CSAT?
CSAT is a test of Korean, Math, English, Science, and Social studies in a day.

who tests?
Only high school seniors take the CSAT. So the rest of the students do not go to school that day.

Why do they take the CSAT?
If they go to a good college in Korea, they can live more abundantly.
So They take the CSAT to go to a better university.

How is the CSAT going?
The seniors must enter the classroom by 8:10, and if it is late, he will not be able to take the CSAT and wait 1 year.
So the police or strangers take seniors to school.
It is very spectacular.

Korean test  08:40 ~ 10:00 (80min)  45 questions
Math   test  10:30 ~ 12:10 (100min) 30 questions
English test  13:10 ~ 14:20 (70min)   45 questions
History, Science or Social test 14:50 ~ 16:32 (102min) 60 questions
Second language 17:00 ~ 17:40       30 questions

Most seniors finish at 16:32, but someone take the CSAT until 17:40.


Plus story
It is an annual event, which is a very important test.
Korean students study for at least 3years, more than 6 years.
Once the efforts are completed within a day, the feeling of frustration and satisfaction coexist.
When listening to the English test, the plane is not allowed to take off and land.
Can you imagine? haha.

The country controls the CSAT.
Members preparing the examination will be locked up for more than a month and will be released when CSAT starts.
Of course, without smartphone.
When copying test papers, they are also protected and secure.


This year's CSAT will be on Nov 16th.

Whenever close to CSAT, the weather is not good and it gets cold.

If you are early on Thursday morning, do not panic if there are a lot of people.
And if you are near the school, be careful not to make a loud noise.
