No Issues in Gwangjin-gu's CSAT Preparation!... Comprehensive Support Measures for CSAT Implementation

Comprehensive Measures Implemented for the 2024 College Scholastic Ability Test
Stable Support for 3,349 Examinees at 7 Schools
Customized Plans in Six Areas Including Traffic, Noise, Convenience, and Safety Management

Gwangjin-gu (District Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) has prepared comprehensive measures in various fields to support a stable testing environment for about 3,400 examinees in preparation for the '2024 College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT)'.

This year, a total of 3,349 examinees will take the test at seven testing sites in Gwangjin-gu: Konkuk University High School, Gwangnam High School, Gwangyang High School, Daewon High School, Daewon Girls' High School, Dongdaemun Girls' High School, and Jayang High School.

On the 6th, the district held a joint meeting with related organizations such as the Seongdong-Gwangjin Office of Education, Gwangjin Police Station, and Gwangjin Fire Station to discuss practical measures to thoroughly prepare for the CSAT.

First, to support examinees' transportation and establish traffic order on the day of the exam, traffic measures were put in place. On the 16th, the district operated a traffic control situation room, managing vehicle control around the test sites, cracking down on illegal parking, and intensively dispatching village buses to ensure examinees arrive at the test sites on time. In particular, 15 emergency transport vehicles were deployed at six subway stations near the test sites and major locations to assist examinees in entering the test sites.

To create an optimal testing environment, noise control measures were carefully implemented. Noise prevention notices were sent to 33 locations such as construction sites and workplaces near the test sites where noise could be generated, prohibiting the use of speakers and civil engineering works that cause noise. Dedicated noise management personnel were assigned to each test site, and patrols were strengthened to block living noise such as car horns and loud noises.

Safety management measures were also prepared for after the exam. After the CSAT, a 'Safety Accident Prevention Campaign' will be conducted with about 60 people from the district, Gwangjin Police Station, and the Volunteer Crime Prevention Unit at Konkuk University’s Food Street and Lamb Skewer Alley, where crowds are expected to gather.

Additionally, in cooperation with Gwangjin Police Station and the Youth Harmful Environment Monitoring Group, joint public-private monitoring activities will be strengthened for youth harmful environments such as room cafes and multi-rooms, and special inspections will be conducted on entertainment and karaoke bars and pubs where youth access is expected.

Kim Kyung-ho, Mayor of Gwangjin-gu, said, “I would like to thank the related organizations such as Gwangjin Police Station, Gwangjin Fire Station, and the Volunteer Crime Prevention Unit for actively helping to safely complete today’s CSAT.” He added, “I send encouragement to the examinees and parents who have walked a difficult path so far, and I support your new journey ahead.”

Meanwhile, the district will hold a ‘Gwangjin Customized 1:1 Consulting’ session for examinees on December 26, when the college admission process officially begins after the CSAT, to provide practical admission information. Applications can be made through the examinees’ schools starting from the 17th.
