Students preparing for college entrance exams for various reasons such as 'I failed my internal exams', 'I need to get the lowest grade', 'I didn't get the results I wanted in the previous year's entrance exam', etc. must pass the hurdle called the CSAT.
The author of this book completely changed the direction of his studies after receiving a grade 4 on his first mock exam in the first year of high school.
In this process, he realized the 'essence of the CSAT' and applied it to his study method, and was accepted to Yonsei University College of Medicine as an active student with a 'perfect score in all subjects' in the 2022 CSAT, which was called the most difficult CSAT ever.
Afterwards, for the sake of my juniors who were struggling to figure out how to study, I compiled all the study know-how I had accumulated over the years into a book.
The book reveals almost all the information about the CSAT that cannot be easily obtained anywhere else, including the author's secrets to passing the CSAT that he acquired through private tutoring, working as an assistant to a daily instructor, and one-on-one study consulting.
Therefore, 『Secret Private Tutoring for a Perfect Score on the CSAT』 is a book specialized in strategies for doing well on the CSAT.

Into the book
There is no 'correct answer' when it comes to studying for the CSAT.
But there are definitely ways to 'help your skills'.
If the CSAT were an exam that could be prepared for over 10 years, I wouldn't have written this book.
Because in 10 years, everyone will have accumulated incredible skills.
But the actual college entrance exam doesn't wait long for us.
To develop your skills to the maximum and reach your desired goals within a limited time, you need to approach things in a more effective way than others.
--- From "Prologue│To You Who Want to Start Studying for the College Scholastic Ability Test"
There is a saying, 'quality over quantity'.
This is half true and half false when it comes to studying for the college entrance exam.
In studying, you need to fill in both the qualitative and quantitative aspects to get a stable score.
Our time is limited.
No matter how much you reduce your leisure time and sleep time, the maximum amount of time you can use does not change.
However, if you waste this precious time on unnecessary processes, the absolute amount of study will inevitably decrease.
This is why, no matter how high the quality of your studies, the results don't match the time you put in.
Above all, ‘studying efficiently’ is important.
--- From "Part 1│The Secret to College Scholastic Ability Test Success That Even the Top 1% Didn't Know"
I don't really like studying by looking at the answer sheet.
This is because the answer sheet only shows the solution process, and does not explain why it should be solved that way.
There must be a sense of justification in the solution process so that you can maintain a consistent attitude even in a tense and urgent test situation.
Let's take out the most recent math problem you solved right now.
And let's see if we can explain the whole solution process.
If there is no specific reason for the solution, it is an invalid solution, and it becomes a problem that you may or may not be able to solve depending on your condition on the day of the test.
Therefore, whether it is practice or actual practice, you must constantly strive to find a solution that has a reason for each and every line.
--- From "Part 2│Study Strategies for Each Subject to Determine the Success of Regular Admission: Math"
Every day before going to bed, I would think about my dream and tell myself, 'I will achieve it.'
Words like 'you can do it' and 'you can achieve it' didn't really resonate with me because they felt like simple encouragement.
So I kept repeating to myself, 'I will do it.'
Even in my daily life, whenever thoughts like, "Can I do it?" or "What if I mess up?" creep into my mind, I calm my anxiety by definitively saying, "I will do it."
When you speak to yourself firmly like this, you will be more motivated to do your best to live up to it.
--- From "Part 3│Creating Custom Habits for the College Scholastic Ability Test D-Day"
Surely, there must have been things you regretted while studying so far.
There are things I regret and things I lack that I only see when it's over.
I did the same.
But that can't be helped.
Now that my skills have improved, I can see a better way, but if I went back then, I would have made the same choice.
So, there is only one thing I can do now: finish it without regrets, using the skills and experience I gained from my past.

Publisher's Review
“There is a separate essence to studying just for the CSAT!”
From current high school students to repeaters
A powerful strategy for achieving a top grade on the CSAT
The percentage of repeat test takers in the 2024 College Scholastic Ability Test reached 31.7%, the highest in 27 years.
Considering that one in three test takers is a repeat test taker, we can infer that interest in and competition for the CSAT have become fiercer.
With the need for specialized positions and the increasing number of medical schools overlapping, admissions experts agree that competition among top departments in regular admissions will become even fiercer.
If the CSAT is easy, a single question can make a difference in grades, and if it is difficult, current students who applied for early admission may be eliminated due to the lowest CSAT grade.
In this way, in an entrance exam with so many variables every year, what test takers must do is to study for the CSAT without wavering and until the end.
The author of this book, who received a grade 4 on his first mock exam in his first year of high school, was clearly a student in the lower middle class.
Since I didn't have the concentration to sit down and study for more than two hours, at first I just studied by reading the textbook over and over again and solving workbooks.
However, he decided that he would not be able to achieve his desired goal if he continued like this, so he began to study in earnest for the CSAT during the summer vacation of his second year of high school.
As a result, he was able to achieve a perfect score in all subjects on the 2022 CSAT, which was called the most difficult CSAT in history, and was accepted to Yonsei University's Department of Medicine as an active student.
This book contains the essence of the CSAT, which the author, who was in the lower middle class until the second year of high school, realized while entering medical school with a perfect score and a grade 1 in just one year, as well as a sharp and powerful study method to achieve his goals.
The method the author presents is not one of the tens of thousands of study methods that tempt desperate test takers, but a direct secret to improving your grades specifically for the CSAT.
"The CSAT is a marathon, not a 100-meter dash."
A special prescription for you who are about to take the CSAT!
From study methods to improve your grades in each subject to study plans and physical and mental management methods.
The author has realized something while working in various fields related to the CSAT, such as tutoring, academy assistant, instructor researcher, question writer, study coaching, and consulting.
It was revealed that even the top students who are said to be good at studying are actually studying without knowing much about the CSAT.
From then on, before teaching students, I first explained to them what kind of exam the CSAT was and what strategies they should use to study for it.
Specific strategies include providing current students who lack time to study with specific methods to increase their study time, and providing repeat test takers with specific study methods to improve their grades in weak subjects.
In addition to study methods, I thoroughly managed all elements related to the CSAT, such as establishing a study plan, distributing my physical strength, and managing my mental health.
As a result, all students who received the author's consulting were able to enter the university and department of their choice.
『Secret Private Tutoring for a Perfect Score on the College Scholastic Ability Test』 is comprised of four parts.
Part 1 contains the most essential content for 'regular admission fighters' who are trying to win the college entrance exam.
I hope you first find out if you are the best suited for the CSAT, which is determined by a single test.
Part 2 covers the direction and strategies for studying for the CSAT by subject.
We introduce everything from past exam questions and how to use EBS to the study order and specific methods for each subject.
Part 3 covers study planning, physical strength, and mental health management, which are just as important as studying.
Sometimes, there are students who are obsessed with study methods, but for continuous study, physical and mental management, and lifestyle habits are just as important as study methods.
If you overlook this, you will definitely get into trouble at a crucial moment.
Finally, Part 4 contains detailed advice on studying for the CSAT by grade level and helpful tips for test takers.
I have compiled only the key points that will be helpful if you read them right before the CSAT.
In this book, you can find all of the author's personal study experiences and the know-how he has accumulated while consulting with students in various situations.
If you read through to the end while thinking about 'How should I study to be practically helpful on the day of the CSAT?', you will be able to establish a direction for your CSAT studies and achieve the results you want.
