Gyeongnam Office of Education.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Seryeong] The Gyeongsangnam-do Office of Education is operating a customized college admission collaboration program for parents of prospective high school students in grades 1 to 3 called ‘New Semester! A Parent’s Study Room for My Child’s College Admission.’

The Parent’s Study Room for College Admission will be held from 7 PM to 9 PM for a total of 130 pre-registered parents: 40 parents per day on the 7th and 8th at the 7th floor conference room of the Gyeongnam Office of Education’s 2nd building, and 25 parents per day on the 10th and 11th at the Jinju Seobu College Admission Information Center.

The Gyeongnam Office of Education College Admission Information Center analyzes the 2022 college admission results to suggest efficient preparation methods for the new semester’s college entrance and provides information about the College Scholastic Ability Test.

The study room focuses on topics that many parents of high school students are curious about, such as changes in college admission screening, and offers main lectures and Q&A sessions centered on the latest admission information.

Parents of 1st and 2nd graders can receive guidance on the changing school life, including increased elements not reflected in college admissions such as autonomous clubs, awards, and individual volunteer activities in the school records.

Parents of 3rd graders can learn about the characteristics of the 2023 college admission screening and the changes in university-specific screening methods compared to the previous year.

Parents participating in the study room will be provided with a booklet containing lecture contents, evaluation methods by area of the school life record, understanding of the College Scholastic Ability Test, and admission success stories of students who passed the 2021 comprehensive student record screening.

The Gyeongnam Office of Education expects this to help understand changes in the high school curriculum according to the 2015 curriculum, study methods for career elective subjects, and university evaluation methods in both the student record screening and comprehensive student record screening.

The Gyeongnam College Admission Information Center plans to continue from last year to provide college admission counseling by school level and grade in 18 cities and counties across the province starting in March, to prevent educational information blind spots for parents in remote areas.

Hong Jeonghee, Director of Career Education, said, “The Parent’s Study Room for College Admission will greatly help children’s career exploration and college preparation,” and added, “We hope this will be an opportunity for our students to start the new semester with a fresh mindset.”
