A project to strategically fill out and create a student portfolio that will help you succeed in college entrance exams.

《SKY Direct Student Profile, Grab the Power of Inquiry》 is a compilation of information on what kind of student profile universities want, written by three authors: Jin Dong-seop, an admissions officer at Seoul National University; Lee Seok-rok, a representative lecturer in the Korean language section at EBS and the director of the admissions office at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies; and Bae Seon-woo, an admissions officer at Korea University. These three authors are Korea's top education experts and former admissions officers at prestigious universities.
What constitutes a "good" academic record for admissions officers evaluating prospective students? The authors state, "Many students diligently complete assigned assignments and give their best effort in school, but often, simply working hard without a clear direction fails to achieve the desired results."
The student body must set a direction early and prepare step by step.
Even activities that seem plausible often have little effect on student performance evaluations.
This book will help readers understand which areas of their academic record to focus on and how to prepare for college entrance exams, and why admissions officers seek "inquiry skills."
Let's prepare a student portfolio with the admissions officer that can show off your child's true capabilities!

The academic performance-based selection process is a selection process that utilizes academic performance.
The subjects reflected and the calculation method differ for each university.
Especially in the case of admissions that have a minimum academic score requirement, whether or not the minimum score is met has a significant impact on acceptance.
Additionally, some universities conduct additional qualitative evaluations of documents.
---From "Changes in school life due to the structure of the college entrance examination and the comprehensive student record selection process"

Admissions officers utilize all areas of your school record to evaluate your academic, self-development, and community skills.
Academic ability is not evaluated solely based on grades, self-development ability is not evaluated solely based on club names, and community ability is not evaluated solely based on attendance and participation in school volunteer activities. The areas utilized in a single evaluation index are not limited to a few areas.
Therefore, it is most important to faithfully participate in school life so that excellence is demonstrated in all areas of the school record.
---“What is the most important factor evaluated in the comprehensive student selection process?”

Career competency is an evaluation item that aims to verify various activities and experiences in the process of exploring career paths.
Rather than evaluating students based on how well their future aspirations and school records match, students who have explored the fields or fields of interest they have been interested in during their school years in a specific and proactive manner are evaluated highly.
Career competency is evaluated not only on the efforts and achievements in completing courses related to the application recruitment unit (department), but also on career exploration activities and experiences.

Let's take a look at how to choose subjects based on your career path and desired department (field) after graduation, focusing on examples.
When designing a curriculum, taking as many career-related subjects as possible is not the only consideration.
You must diligently complete all subject areas, including Korean, English, math, social studies, and science, as well as music, art, physical education, and information, and make good use of all your study time to develop your own abilities.
This is because universities want to evaluate all efforts made by applicants to develop themselves beyond the given curriculum while faithfully participating in the given educational environment.

Each university recommends books by department and age group through its library website and the admissions office's department guidebook.
While it's highly recommended to choose books by following a recommended reading list, a better approach is to visit your local library and browse through the vast collection to find books that best fit your situation and career path.
The following books are ones I chose from my local library, thinking they might be useful to students applying to this program.
We would like to introduce how to explore career paths through reading, using examples from some departments.

Recently, as autonomous activities run by schools themselves have increased, focusing on unique educational activities for each school, there has been an increase in content that clearly reveals individual characteristics.
In particular, class-specific activities such as freely participating in exploratory activities or career activities are becoming more active, and topic-selection activities such as career-related topic exploration and project learning are also actively being carried out.
By focusing on these activities and recording them so that they reveal individualized personal characteristics, you can receive a good evaluation.
Let's look at the following examples of special features of autonomous and self-governing activities.
---From “Specific examples of evaluation of non-curricular areas”

Career exploration, connected to life in this way, becomes a real experience, not something you can only find in books. It also serves as a starting point for expanding social and cultural knowledge and utilizing local resources, in addition to career guidance.
From the students' perspective, they can gain deeper insight into their career paths by applying their interests and passions to real-world settings, and from the admissions officer's perspective, they can expect that the students will grow into talented individuals who contribute to society, rather than just being students who simply study.
