🌳 Just hearing the word “college admissions” makes me gasp and gives me a pounding headache 🤯 If moms feel this way, how hard must it be for the kids? Having been through the difficult parts myself, I feel frustrated and sorry that my child has to be squeezed into an education policy that still hasn't moved forward 😮💨 🌳 I'm the mom of a ninth-grade daughter, and the admissions policy will change completely for the class of 2028. It turns out that not just anyone can be an over-involved
A wise approach to admissions is to gradually discard the information you've gathered. The author worked as an education journalist for 20 years, reporting on schools and admissions, mainly in the Bundang area. She currently runs the online education publication Bundang Education Channel and the YouTube channel Mom Reads Admissions. She gathered her accumulated know-how into one book, with the heart of a mom who wants her child to get into a good college. Based on concerns she heard directly
I’m the mother of a current 11th grader and an 8th grader. With both children approaching admissions under the current system and the system after the high school credit system takes effect, I’ve been seeking information and approaches that suit each child. This book gathers it all in one place: early and regular admissions, what students in grades 9, 10, and 11 should focus on now, and tips for building a strong student record. This one book is a dependable ally for admissions!
I read this thinking that the more a mother knows, the more helpful she can be, and I’m glad I did. With so much information out there, it was hard to find what was truly useful, and I felt at a loss about how to apply it to my child. This was a big help.
It's not saying everyone should race toward Seoul National University. If you know the best methods, you can choose what your own child needs from among them. Specialized and autonomous private high schools or general high schools; early or regular admissions—whichever school or track you choose, the most important foundation for college admissions in Korea is to build strong skills in the tested subjects: Korean, English, math, social studies, and science. Over four years, a mom can help by

A good book for mothers whose children are about to enter middle school or are already there. Admissions terminology is surprisingly difficult and there is a lot to learn, even if you think it may be too early. Once children reach middle school, a mother may feel she can help with little beyond meals and snacks. If a child wants to talk, understanding right away instead of asking ‘What’s that?’ may lead to more conversations. Even with my sixth grader, our daily time to talk is limited; in
This admissions guide fits my current situation perfectly. I related to it and also reflected on the past, when I hadn't prepared in advance—but it's not too late! No one's beginning and end are the same. If I take charge and shape the playing field, that's one thing; if I try to squeeze into a field someone else has made, dissatisfaction and discomfort are inevitable. So I need to make an effort to learn at least a little. There are definitely things that are good for a mom to know! There are
My child is in ninth grade now. Since this is my first child, everything we go through together is new to me. The older the children get, the more things I seem to need to know. Choosing a high school is right in front of us, while college still seems far away, but when I think about my child already being in ninth grade, I realize it isn't so far in the future. I feel at a loss about choosing a high school and how to study after entering one. Of course, the child does the studying, but I hope

Lee Chun-hee: Mom who reads out entrance exams
“Moms only need to know this much to win at every admissions process!” Everything you need to know about admissions to give your child's college prospects an upgrade—a must-read guide for a beginner mom taking her first step into the admissions race. “Which high school will give my child an admissions advantage?” “How should we manage grades?” “Is there a way to make the student record and subject-specific comments stand out?” “How can we quickly raise grades in Korean, English, and math?” These are common concerns for parents facing the long admissions race. Lee Chun-hee, an admissions expert who has worked as an education journalist for 20 years and planned and hosted numerous admissions seminars, addresses parents' concerns in a single book. Broad admissions strategies—criteria for choosing a high school, admissions tracks suited to a child's grades, tips for writing the student record and subject-specific comments, study methods for core subjects, and ways to build study habits—will give parents more refined insight into admissions. The author covers all 12 years of school, from elementary school, the foundation of admissions, through high school, the advanced stage. Readers can learn about studying in general, from “how to study well” to “strategic ways to get into a good college.” If you're worried because you don't know enough about admissions, have lots of information but don't know how to use it, or want to get through the long admissions tunnel with your child, open this book. Its carefully selected information and sharp advice should be quite helpful to many parents of students preparing for college. The unavoidable truth is that doing well in admissions requires doing well in school.
