Description
Book Introduction
“It’s already 100 days until the CSAT. What should I do?” As the CSAT approaches every year without fail, time flies by.
At a time when many students are studying hard amidst tension and anxiety, a special letter from Director Kim Ho-jin of Thomas Academy, who has taught and counseled countless students for over 20 years and has been active as a 'Special One' entrance exam expert, has been published.


The author recommends that you spend the remaining 100 days until the college entrance exam with “100-Day Letter.”
This book will encourage and guide students who must somehow endure the difficult exam period by writing one letter every day for the remaining period.
Sometimes, it contains encouragement like a simple but nutritious breakfast prepared by a mother every morning, and sometimes, it contains a message of self-development like 'cold water friction' that will firmly hold the heart that wavers for no reason.
If you read one letter like that every day, you will find yourself changed on the day of the CSAT.

Into the book
If a teacher from Seoul National University and a teacher from a local university were equally skilled at teaching, which would you choose? I'd choose the teacher from the local university, since he overcame all prejudice and achieved his level of expertise. But most students prefer the teacher from Seoul National University.
Even you, who are less tainted by the world's filth, have such prejudices, so how severe would that discrimination be in the adult world, which is filled with all kinds of prejudices?
--- From "Why should I study?"

When you pass the exam, no matter what your circumstances, the only people who will truly congratulate you are your parents.
There is no parent in the world who is jealous of their child because he or she went to a better university than them.
So don't be angry with someone who is completely on your side.
It's stupid to get angry at someone who really wants you to do well.
If you don't have the intelligence to know who is truly on your side, you won't be able to do well on the CSAT.

--- From "Don't Be Angry at Your Parents"

Whenever I hear someone say, "That guy is smart, but he doesn't study hard," I think, "He's smart, so how could he not study?"
If you're smart, you must know that studying is essential for improving your grades, right?
--- From "If you have a good imagination, you will study well"

The thing that humans put the most energy into is labor.
Students who like games can play all night without getting tired, and students who like dramas can watch dramas for 12 hours straight.
But if you force them to do it, it's hard for anyone to play games all night.
The same goes for watching dramas.
So, subjects that require work don't improve your grades and require a lot of energy.
Most students who say they are 'physically exhausted' while studying are students who work.

--- From "Labor and Study"

But I realized one thing.
That when someone puts their whole life on the line and burns with mad passion, unbelievable things can happen.
So I am still careful when I give counseling.
Because we know that students with passion, even if their grades are poor now, have the potential to make a big difference.

--- From "The Story of the Blinker"

Everyone has a turning point in their life, but we don't always know it, and when we look back on our lives in the distant future, we realize that it was a turning point.
The most painful moment in life can be the turning point just before it turns into the most brilliant life, or conversely, the happiest moment can be the turning point just before it falls into the abyss of despair.
If this is a turning point in your life, and you were to write an autobiography about this turning point in the distant future, I hope you would be able to write something like this.
“Even though time was running out, I didn’t give up.
I moved forward with more strength.
That was a turning point in my life.”
--- From "Turning Points in Life"

Third, reduce what you see, hear, and say.
Addictive music can linger in the mind and become an unexpected distraction during the reading section of the CSAT, which requires a high level of concentration.
Sexually suggestive things also leave an afterimage in the mind, so you should refrain from them as much as possible for the remaining month.
Avoid using harsh words towards friends or parents, as you may end up regretting it for a long time.
--- From "Small things to keep in mind one month before the CSAT"

Publisher's Review
“D-100, enough time to make a difference!”
A message to young people preparing for the college entrance exam
100 Tips from College Entrance Exam Expert Director Kim Ho-jin


A special book has been published for students preparing for the college entrance exam.
"100-Day Letter" is a book published by college entrance exam expert Director Kim Ho-jin to encourage and guide students through one letter every day for the 100 days remaining until the CSAT.
With the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT), perhaps the most important test of one's life and the first major hurdle, approaching, Director Kim Ho-jin has packed this book with a variety of messages that are essential for students enduring this difficult time.

No matter how difficult and gloomy your feelings may be,
If you have the will to stand up from that rock bottom,
“There is plenty of time to turn the world upside down!”


The author delivers a warm message of encouragement to students taking the exam through a letter every day.
Every year around this time, most students who have not given up on their studies are probably spending each day in tension and anxiety.
This book gives them courage and hope, and helps them to move forward toward their goals without giving up.
Of course, we don't stop at simple encouragement; we help students grow and become motivated to study by providing various advice and tips for developing a successful mindset, based on decades of college entrance exam experience.
While offering warm consolation by saying, “You worked hard today,” he also becomes strict at times to provide the necessary stimulation to achieve the goal, helping the test takers to pull themselves together and work hard consistently.

After each letter is completed each day, a 'three-line diary' is included as an appendix where test takers can organize their thoughts and studies for the day.
This diary is an important tool that helps test takers reflect on their day and systematically develop their own study plan.
Through the 'Three-Line Diary', test takers will be able to review what they learned and the emotions they felt during the day, check their own condition, and develop and implement a study plan for the next day or the remaining time.
Additionally, by keeping consistent records every day, you can relieve formless anxiety and maintain a constant motivation to learn, which can also provide psychological stability.

The author offers various tips to help students effectively utilize their final 100 days of college entrance exams, drawing on the expertise he has gained through guiding over a thousand students each year and the diverse experiences he has gained while counseling tens of thousands of students and parents.
This will also be of great help to their family members, such as parents and siblings, who truly support them.
I sincerely hope that this book will become a strong companion for test-takers and their parents, helping them successfully complete the long journey that is the CSAT.
