At the ceremony, Director Jung Younghwan encouraged employees with children preparing for the exam, saying, "You are truly remarkable for having supported your children in every possible way so they can fully demonstrate the skills they have honed over 12 years since entering elementary school. You have worked hard, and I commend your dedication."

He also addressed the employees' children, stating, "I will be cheering for you to achieve great results by managing your condition well in these final days so that your efforts do not go to waste. Just as your parents have devoted themselves to the health of patients, I believe your future will be rewarded with good outcomes."

Song Howon, head of hospital administration, who received a supportive gift, expressed, "I was touched by the thoughtful consideration of the hospital, which cares not only for its many employees but also for their children preparing for the CSAT. I believe this will help pass on positive energy to my child, who is feeling nervous with only a few days left until the exam."

Test-takers preparing for the CSAT should ensure they get enough sleep in the remaining days to maintain optimal condition. Lack of sleep can impair judgment and memory, so it is recommended to get at least five hours of quality sleep and to go to bed before 2 or 3 a.m.

For families with test-takers, providing balanced meals to ensure proper nutrition can help manage their condition. It is advisable to avoid instant foods, cold foods, and wheat-based foods, which can cause digestive issues. Excessive caffeine intake should also be avoided, as it can stimulate the central nervous system, causing palpitations, dizziness, and difficulty sleeping.

On the day before the CSAT, students should maintain their usual sleep rhythm and prepare all necessary items, such as the test admission ticket, in advance to avoid any confusion on the day. On the day of the exam, they should have a light breakfast, and for lunch, avoid greasy or spicy foods and instead eat easily digestible foods they are accustomed to.

Jung Kyungmin, an internal medicine specialist at Ulsan Eliya Hospital, advised, "Every year on the day of the CSAT, there is a chance of a sudden cold snap, increasing the risk of colds and respiratory illnesses. It is important to maintain proper humidity indoors and drink warm water frequently to stay hydrated. If you feel symptoms of a cold before the exam, visit a nearby medical facility for treatment, and since some cold medicines, such as antihistamines, can cause drowsiness, it is best to consult a specialist for a prescription."
