This year's entrance exam has changes such as the increase in medical school and the increase in the number of non-major selection.

From the examinee's point of view, there are more variables than in previous years.

Reporter Yeom Hye-won reports on the university-specific tests and things to consider on-time after the college entrance exam.

The number of medical schools, which is increasing by more than 1,500, is greatly shaking the top ranks of this entrance examination.

It is understood that many of the N students are applying again to medical schools in the metropolitan area.

Considering the expanded door, there was a clear trend of upward application in medical school admissions.

Local medical schools have received a lot of support not only from high school seniors but also from N students, as the number of local talent selection has increased to 60%.

The variable is the difficulty of the CSAT, whether the current student will be advantageous or the Nth student will be advantageous.

This is because if the questions are difficult, there are many cases where the minimum grade of the CSAT cannot be met in early admission with many applicants.

If you are not a medical school applicant, the big variable is that the number of non-major selection increases significantly.

It is a system that allows you to choose a major while living in college after selecting a department without setting a department,

Next year, the number of non-major selection will reach 37,000, four times higher than this year.

The increase in medical schools affects only 40 schools nationwide, but most universities nationwide implement the selection without majors.

It can affect all test takers.

The variable is that the results of previous years' entrance exams are not a reliable standard due to the sudden increase in the number of people.

[Im Sung-ho / CEO of Jongno Academy: It is very difficult to predict the CSAT score on time because the selection of non-major has been expanded for the first time. In particular, depending on the scoring results, it can be very difficult to predict applications for non-major selection if the Moon and Uble situations occur.]

Because of this, the battle for wits may be fiercer than ever after the College Scholastic Ability Test.

Experts advise that you should actively take college-specific tests from time to time as it is not easy to predict the situation.
