"Humanities Essay Cramming - Sogang University Edition" is a practical self-study guide designed to prepare for the 2026 university-specific humanities essay exams. It's based on the latest essay questions from the 2024-2025 academic year, covering the types and trends of questions, answers, solutions, explanations, and text analysis. It's designed to be applied in the exam room.

The title of the textbook is "Humanities Essay Crammed" and, as it is the final essay textbook, it is structured so that if you study essay writing with the basic book and then quickly acquire practical concepts that can be applied through this textbook, you can achieve a greater synergy effect.

The most fundamental motivation for writing this book is the need for a practical book on humanities writing.

When I was studying humanities essays, no matter how many sample answers and analyses I looked at, there were some parts that felt frustrating.

'I know this is the answer, but how am I going to find it in the field?'
'So, how far should I go in the exam room?'

The recent trend in college entrance exams, which emphasizes "practical experience," is woefully lacking in humanities essays.
Therefore, "Humanities Essay Cram - Sogang University Edition" includes "solutions directly from the testing room" and "answers written directly by successful candidates"—something not found in other textbooks—to provide students with unique, hands-on experience.
We want to help you learn not only the 'answers' but also 'how to find' the answers in real life, and help you establish a clear 'line' of action to take in the exam room.
It also contains in-depth content that is essential for an essay writing textbook, including in-depth explanations from successful candidates and sample answers.

For most test takers, the humanities essay is often considered a matter of luck or talent.
You have to be a 'talented person' who read a lot of books from a young age, you have to have a fixed 100 percentile in social studies, you have to be a chosen Daechi kid, etc...? There are only rumors.
Because relatively few students prepare for the humanities essay, there are so many aspects that are not disclosed and are hidden behind a veil.
I hated books as a child, was a picky test taker, and had never been to Daechi-dong. I'll tell you all about how I passed the humanities essay test.

I will show you explicitly the thoughts that successful candidates only thought about indirectly.
I will show you that essay writing is not a matter of luck and talent, but rather a matter of practice and training.

* Book review

[Live Broadcast of Passing: Experience the Reality with Practical Answers and Solutions]
How can I write an answer that will pass the exam??
This will undoubtedly be of the utmost interest to all those preparing and teaching entrance exam essays.
This textbook vividly conveys, as if broadcasting live, how students can respond quickly and pass the exam within a short time limit.
It is different from the instructor's prepared example answers in that it provides a sense of presence and realism by showing the answers that the students can write in raw form.
As an instructor who teaches essay writing, this is one of the few essay-related books that I have personally read with great immersion and tension, as it follows the problem-solving methods that students have experienced in real-world situations.
If I had to pick one strength of this textbook, it would be its organic reading method that allows you to quickly grasp related information throughout the topic and the text.
This will help students gain an intuitive understanding of how to effectively conduct topic-related analysis in the field.
I hope this textbook will serve as a guide for students preparing for the essay exam, allowing them to rehearse actual exam situations.
From an instructor's perspective, this textbook will also be an interesting opportunity to reaffirm the characteristics of passing answers and expand upon the clues to passing.
