Into the book
It's okay to get bad grades in middle school.
Getting good grades doesn't necessarily mean you'll do well in high school.
However, keep in mind that if you study hard in middle school, it will be helpful when studying in high school, and the study experience during the three years of middle school will help you understand your own study patterns and habits, so you should not be lazy about studying for middle school and should diligently focus on it.
---From "Chapter 1: Things to do before entering high school"
In real life, mistakes are fatal.
It affects other subject tests and further increases anxiety about making mistakes in subsequent tests.
So, we need solid training to avoid mistakes.
If you practice these three methods: 'making it a habit to review regularly,' 'practice solving problems within the given time,' and 'be sure to write down the numbers you choose,' it will be of great help in reducing mistakes.
---From "Chapter 2: Basic Learning Attitudes for Medical School"
The second method is the 'big print method'.
This method is one I developed.
If you are studying a concept and come across a really important concept or a concept that you keep forgetting and have difficulty memorizing, write that concept down in large letters next to it.
We don't usually have many opportunities to write in large letters, so just writing it this big is a special experience.
---From "Chapter 3: Special Study Methods for Passing Medical School"
It is not easy for students in their first to third year of high school to prepare for the regular admissions process at schools that focus on rolling admissions.
Especially during the week after final exams at school, the class atmosphere becomes disorganized, and we start to think, 'Can't we just hang out together for a day?'
But if you're truly determined to take the college entrance exam on time, you shouldn't just rest when your friends finish their internal exams. You should quietly study for the CSAT at your own pace.
---From "Chapter 4 Mental Management Methods for Becoming a Medical Student"
It is recommended that you focus on 'single-volume textbook study' starting 4-5 weeks before the exam.
Textbook single volume refers to the process of summarizing the contents explained by school teachers, the contents in the self-study book, and the contents explained in the textbook through academies, private tutoring, or online lectures into 'one textbook'.
I used three different colored pens to create a single volume of the textbook.
Getting good grades doesn't necessarily mean you'll do well in high school.

Publisher's Review
A professional study mentor and medical student tells you
Realistic secrets and warm advice to really improve your grades!
The author is a 2002-born Chung-Ang University medical student who graduated from a local high school known as “Picking the Stars in the Sky” as the top student in the entire school and was accepted to a medical school in Seoul.
After being accepted to medical school, he began to actively work as a professional study mentor for middle and high school students by utilizing his study know-how, launching a formal course on 'Class 101', running a study coaching program on 'Naver Expert Platform', and running an Instagram account called 'Medical Student's Study Life'.
In the process, he conducted one-on-one consultations with numerous students, and through the hundreds of data points collected, he selected students' stories about recent learning directions, study methods, and learning concerns and included them in this book.
The author, who understands students better than anyone else, provides students with effective core study methods and mental and self-management advice in a friendly and realistic manner, like a senior giving advice to a junior.
The author said, “There are many books on the market that only deal with study methods, but what students really need are practical know-how and warm advice that can help them in their actual school life and real life, along with study methods.
“To maintain the top grades needed to enter medical school, you need not only study skills but also thorough lifestyle management through mental and self-management, and I hope this book will help you with that.”
This book is not simply a list of study methods.
This book is packed with the author's own effective study tips, which he discovered while going through high school, as well as practical advice he found through his own experiences with students.
As a 'study senior' and 'medical school senior', these stories that I want to tell my juniors are ones that any middle or high school student can relate to, regardless of their grades. This book will serve as a strong support for students during their tiring and difficult school years, and at the same time, it will provide answers to all the problems that high school students need.
Recommended reviews
When I was preparing for the college entrance exam, students in general humanities high schools had to run around and gather information and know-how about the entrance exam.
Even after doing that, I often heard negative comments.
But now, a book has appeared that is so good that it is no exaggeration to call it a manual.
I wish I had been born six years later.
- Kim Mi-san, 6th year student at Ewha Womans University School of Medicine
This book solves all of a student's concerns at once, including study methods, lifestyle habits, mental management, and mindset. It introduces in detail the difficulties that high school students actually face and effective study methods, making it like a secret notebook for students preparing for college entrance exams.
It will be a strong support for students who are just entering high school and feeling lost, students whose grades are not improving as much as they studied, and students who are aspiring to medical school.
Park Jae-yoon, a second-year student at Chung-Ang University School of Medicine
This book is a perfect guide for medical school applicants, and not a single word should be missed.
This is a concern that every student has, but this book contains the key answers that were not easily obtained.
If I had had this book when I was going through a difficult time applying to medical school after graduating from a local high school, it would have been the first thing I opened.
Whether it's habits, study methods, or mental health management, any medical school aspirant will find realistic and sharp answers in this book.
- Kim Se-yeon, first-year student at Wonkwang University School of Medicine
Based on the experiences and knowledge of actual medical students, it contains detailed study strategies and mental management methods for successful entrance exams and studies.
The author's sincerity in wanting to provide the best possible help to all students who need learning information can be felt throughout the book.
As someone who has received help and access to numerous study methods and admissions advice through the Instagram account “Medical Student’s Study Thoughts,” I am very happy about the publication of this book.
