Publisher's Review
Looking at the trends in administrative scrivener exam questions from the first exam in 2013 to the 12th exam in 2024, the first administrative scrivener exam, Introduction to Public Administration, was largely comprised of questions of moderate difficulty.
However, with the overall difficulty level significantly increasing in the 13th exam in 2025, it has become difficult to expect high scores through memorization-based studying alone.
Therefore, it has now become essential to not only have a solid understanding of the entire scope of Introduction to Public Administration, but also to accurately understand and thoroughly memorize the content.

In response to these changes, this book organizes the vast content of Introduction to Public Administration into a table format, allowing test takers to grasp the flow at a glance.
Additionally, acronyms are placed throughout to make concepts easier to memorize, and unfamiliar theories are presented in diagrams, enabling structural understanding beyond simple memorization.
Additionally, the text includes explanations of relevant legal provisions and legal terms to ensure the legal accuracy required for administrative scrivener practice.

I hope that this book will help all students ease the burden of studying Introduction to Public Administration and help them approach the exam with confidence.
