- Today we’re back at the school, this time to take a look at the notorious Korean SAT. Huge thanks to all the boys who were willing to put themselves in someone else’s shoes today and try this exam!!
We’ve done a few videos about this huge exam in Korea before, and every year I think it’s a great opportunity to remember what so many people are going through right now.
For everyone in Korea about to take the KSAT next week we want to send love and support from the whole KoreanEnglishman and JOLLY team. We’ll be praying for you!
Everyone in this video including the crew had a negative COVID-19 test prior to shooting.
All activities were fully risk assessed and monitored in accordance with UK government guidelines.

All this test proved is that cultural bias exists in standardized testing. Here we have English students that have shown good deduction skills, cognitive understanding and problem solving. The test is formatted to help Korean students not to read the text but to decipher what keywords and clues will lead to the pre-generated answers. It does not encourage independent thought or comprehension. It produces good test takers that follow directions without question.
Exactly, but also that’s lowkey how schools and higher education works in general. I remember taking one of my final examples in English and it was tbh quite similar to this (I’m German). As a native speaker you get quite lost, because you’re not trained into finding those keywords.
Schooling is about recollecting memories and realizing patterns, they don’t encourage independent thinking at least in exams, because it’s quite impossible to standardize that and give grades accordingly.
Not really. The SAT tests for “scholastic aptitude” - by way of logic and verbal reasoning. They are somewhat testing your grasp of vocabulary and grammar but the real point of the “reading comprehension” section is to test your critical thinking. It is actually a good primer to the formal academic writing you will encounter in university, ie reading theory in the humanities or social sciences. As far as measuring “independent thought” typically there is a writing portion as well where the focus is more on rhetorical ability.
source: I barely tried in school but I aced my SATs... (I will say that the structure of these exams is more geared toward those with a knack for logic, puzzles, word games etc.)
Nope
That's exactly hobwit was for us, I had to think like a teacher to solve the exams
Coming from asia and now living in England, there’s a significant difference in work-life balance. In the Philippines, Highschool was 7am-5:30pm then the clubs or sports. College/University was 7am-7pm. Then I went to the UK and I think mental health is much emphasized here. They know you are supposed to have a life outside school or work. It may be different now tho
7am-5pm at school and then homework or studying when you get home😵
As a Filipino and is currently in college here in the ph. I agree with you, school is ridicously hard here.
@@soleil8596 traffic is bad as well. I had to get up at 5-5:30am for school and arrive home at 7pm. That is if you don’t have any extracurricular activities such as clubs and sports varsities.
Interesting. My high school (g7-10, pre-K-12) was 7:30-3:30 (dismissal changed every year but more or less was in between 3:20 and 3:40) then extracurricular “9th period” would be an additional 50 minutes after 8th period. And that’s it.
@@nmplab we have a schedule like that but only once a week. But then I have to stay a bit because I have to wait for others to finish due to our school service
This isn't showing that Koreans have a better understanding of English than British people, it's just showing that their tests are unnecessarily hard and obviously focus on aspects of English that are completely irrelevant. If you have a test that somebody who is fluent in the language cant pass while somebody who is not can, then the test is doing a bad job at determining your skill in that test.
The problem is that ppl that create those test are themselves pretty poor in English. While the answers are formally correct, as well as a use of grammar and syntax, the phrasing, the use of vocabulary and particularly semantics are totally inaccurate.
Very true! And the real testament is that most or many Koreans do not speak fluent English by the time they’re done with school. As a contrast, I started studying English in Russia at 9. By the time I moved to the US at 15 I was fluent so much so that I could take trigonometry during my sophomore year, my first year in the US, without difficulty. It seems like this test is not at all indicative of the actual knowledge of the English language.
Exactly!!
PERIODD
@@perakojot6524 The point of the exam is to make sure the person who is learning the language can actually have a process of thinking in that specific language. We can all learn the vocabulary of a certain language easily but it’s difficult to actually think in that language.
I love what max said, “Exams aren’t the end of the world” and “Health is wealth”. So true. That boy’s got his priorities right!
truee🤣
Not when you are about to get disown.
What Max said is very true, except for in Korea. That Soonung (Korean SAT) test is unfortunately everything. It dictates their whole future and what university they can go to. The questions on that test are ridiculous. I have a Masters in TESOL, and I tried a bunch of questions from it. I barely got half of them correct. It's a test Korea needs to rethink and make it more like the English we use, and not the Korean/Japanese mathematical English they teach in Korea.

I knew several Koreans in grad school who could barely communicate in English, made elementary grammar mistakes, but had fantastic verbal scores on the GRE because they basically just memorized long lists of archaic words that only ever show up on tests like that. It's simultaneously so impressive and also so pointless that they do that. Other than the actual exam, that time could be so put to so much better use, even if just to learn English.
They can most definitely read english. This test has nothing to do with speaking english so they most likely dont know how to pronounce each alphabetical letter and say a setence. Remember, never in this test was it a verbal test
Also you saying that they could put the time to better use is invalid as the main intention for them learning english may not be to communicate, but to read and understand english as english is written over almost every daily use items
Plus u only need to know super basic english to survive in the degenerate society we live in nowadays
they most likely do know how to communicate and use grammar, just dont know how to write or do extremely well with forming sentences. If you go to Korea, you most likely memorize terms and sentences, maybe a bit of formatting, but you dont really have to learn much besides that unless you go to school or work
@@trebleclef9844the english text on there felt like it was written by ai or smth lol
For those wondering about the English language used here, it isn’t to test your ability to fluently speak it in every day life but to understand scientific essay writing or similar as most books for these things are written in English. Hope that clears some questions
But the writing of exam is really poor even for academic writing standards. Writing like the one shown in the video is by no means good for academic publication.
But it’s not that the writing is super advanced or formal… it’s just plain wrong. It doesn’t make sense lol. You don’t want to be speaking gibberish in scientific essays.
I read only scientific papers in english, and my native language is not english. I have never seen one written like that.
@@mominabutt5021how is it wrong english tho? The first question, you just pick the sentence that gives you wrong info. All of it was correct English. And the second example about the “flow” was bit weird because like he said “what is the flow?” I thought “which sentence does not belong in this text?”which would be advertisements. But even tho English is my native language I would fail this exam as I wouldn’t be able to analyse the question’s meaning and the text’s meaning and answer all in approx. 1.5 minutes/question. These 2 questions alone took me 10 minutes. Idk…these don’t feel too different from actual essay questions I’ve gotten. But I feel bad Korean students are the ones doing these….why?
@@Denturess yeah man I feel the same, like they don’t seem wrong and by all of the rules English has they are valid sentences it but they are just, not even bad just wrong. This is like beyond the syntax wrong. My best guess is that someone wrote English perfectly but with Korean language meaning/mindset or something. Just a guess maybe it’s easier for Koreans to have it like this.
This has to be the best promotion ever for any school in the UK. The personality of these boys just shines. Very well spoken, having a lot of fun, engaging, supportive, articulate, smart, energetic and living life. Full credit to the school leadership and the culture. This is amazing.

@@flodderr u saying this makes you dumb srsly
@@flodderr a Korean English test is extremely different to an English exam in the UK, they’re just not used to it. English a levels r very hard too
@@flodderr I read this kinds of tests from my korean friends and tbh I found a lot of grammatical errors and words that are just put up just to look formal or eloquent, furthermore it’s torture to put students to this kinds of tests especially if they don’t even speak a lick of english in their everyday life. No wonder my korean classmates are scared to speak in english because they’re scared to make mistakes
I'm an english teacher in korea - some of these kids don't even know the names of the letters in the alphabet, but will read full passages and pass exams.
The way the curriculum is taught to these kids is absolutely ridiculous. Some of my top scoring students can't even hold a basic conversation in English, yet they would easily be able to do this reading section at the drop of a hat. Memorization and robotic test prep isn't really about learning the language at all.
I heard this from friends who've taught in korea as well. Absolutely excel in written "textbook" English but can't hold a basic conversation. They need to revise their teaching methods. I suddenly remember my Spanish teach from high school. She never spoke a word of English and emphasized conversation and interactive lessons. We hardly read from textbooks or workbooks.
Why do they do that?
But foreign language learning in many places doesn't help anyone to speak that foreign language. I'm from the Caribbean, and we learn Spanish and French on my island for yearsssss but no one can actually speak any of those languages. It is simply part of the curriculum.
I just feel a bit bad to see so many people coming down on Korea specifically, when I think the real issue is that: teaching a foreign language in school for a couple hours a week, with students having no way to practice said language, leads to students being unable to speak said foreign language.
Edit:
I just want to let you know that I know my comment was unnecessary. I totally got your point, I just felt like defending them for some reason lol.
Good point. Im 100% agree with you.
look, as you c theirs so many Korean ppl replyed negative for korean ENG SAT test has problem and so many opposite replyed also(they are replayed as Korean)
but no one replyed your opinion. which mean's your saying is 100% correct.

@@ittybittymouthful My Spanish teacher was the same. Our speaking grade was measured by how much Spanish we spoke to her and each other in class, so that really was a good motivator. She also taught outside the textbook and our lessons were based on discussing articles, literature, and video media from around the Spanish speaking world, which was cool because we got to learn vocabulary differences between European Spanish and Latin American Spanish (and even within Latin America there were some major differences). I still remember a lot of my Spanish today thanks to her teaching style.

All of the articles on this test are excerpts from papers, columns, or professional journals written in English from foreign universities. It's to reconstruct it and make a test question.
I have no trouble finding the right answers, probably bcs my school also use the same type of questions for our english exam. Once you understand the pattern u can get the answer by glance. The different is, korean use non practical words to make the passage looks harder bc sometimes u really dont have to understand the whole paragraph to get the answer. you only need to choose which one stand out more. Which mean, the whole exam doesn’t test their understanding and comprehension of the language itself.

I just attempted the test and i was surprised how difficult it was. My parents are korean and studied the english there before moving to the US. Personally, the test was manageable and i did decently well (missing only a few questions). In retrospect the only reason i did well is because my parents are literature teachers and i have been reading since I was two. This just goes to show that it doesnt mean people in Korea have a better equipped English skill set, it just shows how unbelievably strict and high the standards have been set for Korean students.
No the way of your thinking is incorrect, its not about speaking english like a normal person, its taking the definition to the maximum, like making the question as hard as possible

It's because that questions r not grammatically correct..
As a teacher in the US I love these British high schoolers. They are very well spoken and seem well mannered also. I'm sure, like all of us they have their moments! But they really do shine and have wonderful, charismatic personalities! And they are correct... I think our educational system in the west has slipped, but perhaps the Korean system could lighten up just a bit ... I hate to hear of young people being so, so stressed and even potentially harming themselves because of exams that will not necessarily determine your whole future. Stay strong and fighting!
I'm a year 12 student in the UK, these British 'high schoolers' are so well mannered but that's kinda rare to find. I'm pretty sure s lot of the higher schoolers in the US are nice and well mannered :). I just have to say though- I answered the first Korean question truthfully read all the sentences and answered number 3. Surprised I got it right. I think this test would be harder for people in Korea because English isn't their first language but if you were taught to learn and revise in this teaching style you could definitely ace a multiple question choice paper in 70 minutes. Question and exam paperd in the UK are never multiple choice.
in korea the exams do determine their entire future :(
These tests do determine their futures. It’s like the SATs but then times worse. It is very competitive and one could even say cut throat.
Same here in our country "Algeria" we also have this "baccalauréat" exam which determines the future of your whole fuckin life!!
@@tae_taecookies1238 Really ?? Cause here in France, it depending of which school you want to atend. There's 2 ways: 1 -> people who want the best "prépa " in order to atend the most selective school of the country (like H.E.C, Polytechnique, Normal supérieur...). 2 -> people who directly after the baccalauréat go to the university and after try to enter in a selective school. Cause here, you can't go directly to certain selective school after the baccalaureat, you need to firstly go to the university. Personally I'm in law and I want to enter in the E.N.M (very selective one, there's only 200 places) in order to be a public prosecutor or a judge.
Thank you, I needed the laugh. The way they fell apart for question #3 is every student who didn't study. The fact that this became a personality test is so funny. The boy who said trust fate, is a free spirit who believes in the good of the world. The boy who said to each pick one and one of us will get it right is a think outside the box problem solver who just wants the best for everyone. The boy who covered his ear is a focused mind who walks to the beat of his own drum. The fact that they all just were like guess in the end is classic test strategy. Great job, feed these boys.

Question one - Number 3. It makes more than enough sense. None of it seems massively incorrect, it just uses terminology and speech patterns most people don’t. Give this test to a solicitor and see how they do, I bet they’d smash it.
Or maybe for them.. it doesn't make sense so shut up
I was thinking number 1 because it’s the only one that centers it’s subject on something other than humor itself/qualities of humor, and rather focuses on the example’s story and what reactions it evoked.
Looking back It (number 3) actually does make the most sense as it’s the only sentence that doesn’t focus around bonds between workers or a collective
its not about being incorrect its just way too unnecessary, even native speakers are struggling. that just shows how irrelevant it is and sometimes the sentences barely make sense and most answers are correct in one way or another
@@jcorrea6515 I literally did not understand the question properly so I focused on the English itself (as it's supposed to be an English test). 1 should have read "...at face value..." instead of "on its face"; 2 had the weird last few words "...and do not." added to the end, which doesn't flow properly either. Obviously I didn't understand what 'flow' we were even supposed to be looking at! :D
If Josh and Ollie met in high school I think they'd be like Armand and Max
yesss! hahahah they give off the same bestie vibes!!!

As a Korean med student who’s never lived outside of Korea before, I’d always finish this exam(45 questions) in like 40~50 minutes and go to sleep. The thing is, these students in the video were all new to the questions and the exam itself, but actually the order&pattern of questions are always the same, each year. Only the passages are new. So the students would take loads of mock tests before actually taking the exam, and train so that they’d know where to look at/read even when they’re facing an unfamiliar passage. It’s more like training for the exam itself and not studying a language 😂 Some of my friends nailed the test and wouldn’t be able to have a small talk with native English speakers
+)This doesn't mean that the exam itself would be easy though, since u still have to be able to comprehend all those sentences and vocabularies. For most students that is hard enough
유학 갔다 온 적 없고 항상 수능영어 40~50분컷 하던 의대생의 입장에서 말해보자면 수능영어 준비는 영어 공부보다는 훈련에 가까운 것 같아요 😂 영국 학생들은 수능 자체가 완전 낯선 상황이지만, 사실은 매년 문제유형도 위치도 같아서 한국 학생들은 지문을 다 읽지 않고도 새로운 지문을 만났을 때 어디부터 읽어야할지를 아니까요. 적어도 계속해서 그걸 위해 연습하고요! 그러다보니 대부분의 수능 과목이 그렇겠지만 영어는 특히 실제 실력보다는 누가누가 시험 준비 잘했나의 경쟁인 듯해요
Really? What a shame, so true indeed what the students in the video said. It's ridiculous!
Whatt so it beats the purpose of actually teaching and making them learn English? Exams are so impractical huhu God bless and good luck to all Korean students out there, fighting!!
That's actually very similar with the exams to apply for uni in my country. Every subject has its own pattern, students can almost remember, for example, what question #15 would be about (it'd be a different question every year, but from exactly the same part of materials). I hate it so baaad it's really stressful but many people would probably pass the exams pure by luck.
In the Philippines, we study the English language so that we can apply it in our daily lives. Not only a means to pass your studies or get good grades. One can learn better if what we're learning in school is more practical and can be applied outside school. That's the point why we study right? I hope the Korean education system will be improved for the sake of the students, it might be frustrating for them.
I’m soo sorry for the students. Who made the exam pattern tho. I mean I don’t understand the objective of them making the exam like that. Even academic papers don’t use language like that. Even government budget plans don’t use this kind of language. Whyyyy
In Germany we all take our exams on the same day as well.
I also sat an English exam with it as my second language but our exam consisted of writing summaries, analysis, a discussion and a mediation (mediation means you write to an English speaking friend about a German text and have to roughly translate the information that is most useful to your friend)
in the UK it takes like 6 weeks to do all the exams for the GCSEs and A-levels but you not actually doing exams day in or out, you might have 1 or 2 one day and then another few days later or none for week, on top of this they have the mocks for Year 10 and SATs for Year 9 so it like from Easter to End of June, there is just a hall set up for exams
That’s not true lol. Which school did you go to?? In a german high school we only have one final exam in one day. We usually have all final exams in one week.

I hope this can kick start a trend and change some things in South Korean education, especially regarding functional critical thinking and foreign language. I feel as though the Korean culture somewhat promotes vain appearance in all aspects of the country- beauty, education, career, etc, that depth and functionality of life is easily overlooked.
Education is important but critical thinking, formulating thought and knowing how to present it to many populations is equally as important. I hope there is a change in opportunities provided for the younger generations in Korea. It’s so sad that completely irrelevant material is studied just so that these kids can pass a test in order to graduate high school. An educational reform needs to happen in a country that is full of so much potential in their upcoming generations. I mean this for special education too. There needs to be more representation and equity for all populations in Korea, not only the top 2% of the kids at the school.

This test does make sense in English, it’s just very weirdly worded and it took a lot of time to get through only because the language used was weird.
In a sense, the first question would have been much easier if the passage said “Shared humor is a good way for people to bond together because 1. Humor helps make people share their experiences 2. Makes people feel included in a group 3. Humor is good to use in commercials 4. Shared humor is almost a requirement in a group setting.
This wording makes it super obvious which one doesn’t fit. But the thing is that when formal language is used, people who aren’t used to it have a harder time understanding what exactly is being said. Since it’s said in a way that no one ever talks in that language. It even took me a second to understand the first part of the passage honestly and the difference in test formatting did not help.
In conclusion, shout out to Koreans for surviving this testing experience. You all are getting scammed 😅 stay healthy, sleep well, and all that good stuff
I used to teach English in Korea and even assisted with test preperation at the middle school level (format is all the same starting in middle school) and I think there is a misconception about English education in Korea. Korean students aren't taught English to speak it, they are taught in regards to what is seen as eductional prestige in their country (what looks good on paper, that can propel and solidify your employment in an elite company). Most Korean students don't care about learning English for communication purposes (many students score high on the English part, yet have no plans of stepping foot outside of the country) they care about "learning English" for presitge, high-end job placement and the status it gives. Students who actually WANT to learn English or know how to speak English, don't learn through school; they learn in their own time through hobbies, media, engagement, immersion, high interest in the language and being very open to speaking with native speakers whenever possible (just like things you would do if you wanted to genuinely learn a new language).
I agree. If you wanna learn how to speak and communicate in English, you should go abroad, not studying for the exam.
For English proficiency, IELTS is actually valid in my opinion. In fact, many people who have lived abroad understand what the problem is. So many educated Koreans are deciding to live abroad for educational purpose.
But the funny thing is, I found people tried to justify this problematic English exam. They are saying like "The exam tries to evaluate students' academic paper reading skills."
"The exam pursues on finding people who has high intelligence."
None of these arguments doesn't make sense.
It's the same thing here in Malaysia. The rigidly official English taught in middle schools are boring and most students who are fluent English speaker don't actually learned it from school. They learned from watching movies, listening to music or any hobby that is usually presented in English. I myself didn't learn English from school, it was boring and taught by mostly unqualified English teachers
@@nagnusyo that's interesting to note. An acquaintance of mine scored just average level of proficiency in the Malaysian English test. But she managed to be a top scorer in the IELTS in Malaysia and won monetary award.
Korean language will sound funny and strange if they are taught to speak it, because codeswitching is very much possible, like what we do here in the Philippines,
here, English is very much necessary for communication purposes, in preschool upto the end of elementary the rules are very strict compared to highschool to college, its necessary to speak in english only, if you speak in filipino or in any other filipino lang, they give you such creative punishments, like paying money everytime you talk in filipino or you're the badge holder 👀
Ikr? Not a native English speaker here but hey I learnt English the same way. Fun fact: I was actually the English topper of my school in 10th grade & I was surprised Imao

"How do I know what doesn't fit the flow- WHAT IS THE FLOW?"

LMAO THIS IS HILARIOUS 😂😂😂
I'm a non-native speaker of English and maybe "flow" isn't the best expression to pick in the eyes of a native speaker, but I get what they meant and found it quite obvious that the correct answer was number three. Did you read the question?
I laughed so hard at this 😂
😭
@@camelopardalis84 Looking it over again, I agree that question 3 must be the correct answer, but "flow" seems like it would refer to ease of readability. He kept getting caught up in the beginning because none of the sentences had good flow. A better question would replace the word "flow" with "topic".
The channel actually hand picks the most difficult questions from the exam, and giving the median time to answer them 1min/question.
In reality the test comprises of a lot of easy questions that can be answered within seconds. Thus even being wrong at all the complicated ones doesn’t immediately equate failing as it can be compensated by the easier ones.
Trust me, I’m currently attending college in SK and have lots of korean friends!
I don't know if anyone caught it but the first question was almost exactly something you would be asked on the SAT in the U.S. I am sure the rest of the exam is much more difficult than the SAT as many prepare for over a year and still fail. Good luck for anyone taking the CSAT or the SAT/ACT!

I wasn't expecting humour but ended up laughing at their reactions. They're so lively and engaging, best of luck to them and students taking this exam !
예전에 보고 또 보는데 학생들 왜 이렇게 웃기고 귀여워요 ㅎㅎ
Even though the passage may look difficult at first glance, it is still comprehensible. The topic sentence talks about humour and how it brings unity in an organization. Understanding that the key owrds are; humour, unity and organization, then you could easily pick out the sentence that does not fit in the flow of the passage. That would be sentence no.3. It is completely out of context since it talks about humour in commercials and not in an organization.
2:34 Just check which of the 5 statements is false (turns out it is #4, the relevant margin is actually 18%, not 20%).
4:47 The main idea of the passage is the role of humor in a community/organization. Option #3 is about humor in commercials and is therefore off-topic.
The test is probably a similar difficulty to the SAT from the College Board but for the confusing language/squishy formatting that makes the test seem harder than it really is.
If there is a section that genuinely requires more skill, it is probably the math section. I have once seen this particular question on one of their exams.
A cone-shaped mountain has radius 20m and slant height 60m. Let A be a point at the base of the mountain and B be a point collinear with A and the vertex of the cone. Given that AB = 10, the shortest possible sightseeing trail that goes around the mountain once is constructed starting at A and ending at B. The trail's elevation is decreasing for k meters of the trail. Determine k.
P. S. I am not a Korean student preparing for this test and I heard this math puzzle from the RUclips channel MindYourDecisions. If you enjoy math puzzles, highly recommend checking it out.
yes that makes sense, at first, I was looking for a grammatical error or a problem with the sentence structure until I realised it was about what was out of place.

truest words ever spoken.
The test isn’t just “hard.” It expects Korean students to correctly analyze formal texts _full_ of logical inconsistencies and improper word usage. Like putting “while” between two harmonious sentence components (“then” would make much more sense). The sentence structure does not follow a consistent rhythmic style, making reading difficult whether you speak native English or not. The text isn’t just verbose, but overloaded with information that isn’t supported by necessary stylistic organization.
Wtf is a harmonious sentence 💀💀💀

But this is what annoys me about it though. It's not necessarily hard because it's high level, it's just confusing because it's badly written.
수능은 한국에서 정말 중요한 시험입니다.
시험을 준비하는 과정에서 시험출제위원들의 보안을 유지하기 위해서 출제위원들은 격리된공간에서 몇달간 외부와 소통을 금지하여 생활합니다.
가족과의 통화도 직접적으로 할 수 없기에 정말 급한일이 생긴 경우에 중간에 다른사람을 통해 통화내용을 전달받습니다.
정확하지 않은 정보일 수 있지만 제가 알기론 수능문제는 보통 논문을 발최하여 만들어집니다.
실생활 영어도 중요하지만, 대부분 대학교에 진학하여 논문으로 쓰여진 글을 쉽고 빠르게 읽어내기 위한 능력을 기르기위한 시험으로 알고있습니다. 그렇기에 일상에서 쓰는 단어보다는 조금 낯선단어와 표현이 등장하는 것으로 알고있습니다.
수능시험이 정말 중요한 시험인만큼 한문제 한문제 출제를 위해 정말 많은 시간과 인원이 동원됩니다. 영상에 소개된 것 처럼 수능 출제기간에는 비행기가 날지않으며, 컨닝방지를 위해 기존에 다니던 학교가 아닌 랜덤으로 새로운 학교에 시험 전날 배정되기 때문에 늦을 경우 경찰의 도움을 받을 수 있습니다. ( 평소에 사용하던 학용품도 제한을 받으며 시험장에서 제공되는 샤프와 컴퓨터용싸인펜 정도 만이 사용가능합니다 )
또, 수능을 응시하는 학생들이 대중교통을 이용하다 지각하는 일이 없도록 직장인들, 공무원들의 출근시간이 평소보다 늦춰지기도 하며, 뉴스에서는 수능 일주일전이나 당일 수능에 대한 보도가 증가하며, 해당 년도의 수능에 대한 평가가 보도됩니다. 쉬운난이도였는지 어려운난이도였는지 말입니다. 시험 등급발표와 결과가 나오기전에 많은 사설 인터넷강의 사이트에서 예상등급컷을 예상하며 공식적인 사이트에서 그들이 예상한 등급 커트라인이 제공됩니다.
수능시험은 시험을 치르고 나서 이의를 제시하는 기간이 있습니다. 많은 전문가들, 선생님들, 치른학생들이 시험에 이의를 제의할 수 있기때문에 누구나 납득할 수 있는 정답을 출제하고 있는걸로 알고있습니다. 실용영어를 위해 발음과 실생활영어 문장과 단어에 집중된 영어회화라는 조금 다른분야의 영어를 배웁니다.
여담으로 수능은 매년 목요일에 이뤄지고 있는데, 이유는 금요일에 수능을 치뤘더니 주말을 지내며 자살하는 학생들이 많기 때문에 목요일로 날짜가 변경되었습니다.
귀하의 솔루션은 정말 좋은 솔루션인가요? 근본 원인을 해결하지 않고 시험 날짜를 바꾸는 것은 어리석은 일인 것 같습니다....

These questions are ridiculous
it’s not about learning a language, it’s learning the pattern of the exam. i’m not korean and never took this exam, but i can tell for sure that u shldnt be reading the whole passage from top to bottom for every question. u look at the question first and then look at the parts of the passage that is relevant. this is what korean students do and what the exam board wants them to do. it’s basically a logical thinking exam in english. if u know the pattern and know how to answer these question types, then even if u can’t speak english or know the language well, u can do well in the test. this is why many kpop stars can’t speak english in interviews and only those who lived in english speaking countries before can. they aren’t trained to speak english, they are trained to take this exam that isn’t even testing their english
I am from nepal , that exactly how it is taught . I was fortunate enough to be in school that did give us passages thag were diverse but like in the bored exam its more about if you know the patern or not , the thing that you mentioned about reading the questions first is the key and knowing that the first questions answer is always in the first to 4 line is the knowledge thaf you get .
Nepal in the state that you even have a book to tell you the answer and coping the answers a praized more that writing it yourself,English is the only exam i have never studied for till this date , teachers predict the questions and its normally93% accurate. Its basically can you mug ut up at this point , not the thing that you would want for the betterment of your future
@@pierce9019 ayo no education system is that perfect but I'd say South Korea has much better tho we share the same pattern
This is why I think many of these exams and thus the education systems fail to teach students proper skills to navigate the world after graduating. Students have to spend hours learning these pattern which will not be very translatable to life skills. The exam is just not accurate in assessing the student's actual English skill. If the questions are geared towards testing the students' ability to say construct sentences that are precise and easy to understand, writing passages that sounds graceful, comprehend older literature etc, those will be very useful.
We have a similar test here in Texas that you have to take every year, but starting in 2nd grade it starts to count as an actual grade. We’re tested on reading, writing, math, science and history. A lot of times for the reading and writing I would do the same thing to to the part of the passage that the question was sending me to. 🤣

초딩때 영어쌤이 틀어주신 채널!고3된 지금도 가끔 와서 보는데 여전히 재밌어요ㅋㅋㅋ
As a Taiwanese student, I must say that our daily routines are quite similar to Korean students. Just like they said in the video I Do think "I AM JUST READING BUT NOT UNDERSTANDING" from time to time when I am too tired and lack of sleeping. LMAO (btw, YES those who designed these tests are CRAZY, it can't even help us pluck up the courage to talk to native speakers )
"Alex, do number 5. One of us will get it right." I cracked right tf up. 😂
애초에 수능영어는 대학가서 영어논문이나 에세이 잘읽을수있게 하는게 목적인 시험임. 보통 다 영국,미국의 대학 논문이나 기사,에세이에서 원문 그대로 가져와서 출제하는거임. 특히 2015년 이후로 수능영어가 절대평가로 바뀌고나서부터는 영어 원문을 일체 수정안하고 그대로 출제해서 엉터리 문제같은건 더더욱 없음. 문제가 이상하다 제대로된 시험이 아니다 하는데.. 수능영어 어휘도 다 미국영국 논문에서 자주쓰는 어휘고, 주어진 시간내에 영어원문의 요지와 주제를 파악하게끔하는 효과적인 시험임. 뭣도모르고 엉터리다 뭐다하는 사람들이 많아서 안타까워 적어봄..

우리나라 학생들 화이팅 그대들은 잘못한것이 없다.
영국 고등학생들의 자유롭고 위트 넘치는 대화가 더 눈길을 끄네요. 우리나라 고등학생들에게서도 이런 여유있는 모습을 볼 수 있었으면 좋겠습니다.

유럽이나 미국은 토론 위주의 수업이라서 한국 학생들은 맨날 받아들이기만 하느라 스스로 생각을 못 하는 반면 쟤네는 떠올리는 습관이 되어있나봐요. 우리나라도 얼른 토론위주의 교육으로 바꿔나가야해요... 그래야 주도적인 사람들이 되고, 남이 비판을하면 반박할 생각은 못 하고 버럭버럭 화만 내는 병크가 안 일어나죠.

I was an exchange student in Korea and attended a highschool there, and watching this video makes me think that those kind of tests might be easier for non-native speakers than for native speakers, because the Korean highschoolers have to use logic, practice and routine, while natives try to only rely on intuition. English is my second language too, but it was easier for me to do the tests than for my classmates because in Switzerland, where I live, we also learn conversational skills, which aren’t really taught in Korea, so while most of my friends would maybe get 6/10 right, I’d get 8-9/10.
feel like that has nothing to do with it has nothing to do with that because there are Koreans who literally said that since the tests are here every year they spent majority of the years or year studying for those tests like it's the same every year and it's a pattern so they practice and practice they learn the pattern of how they're supposed to answer the question and then they do it like they're not actually thinking about the English and if they are as soon as they're done with the test they forget about it cuz majority of Koreans don't understand English.
@@brandyjohnson738 …isn’t that what I said?
@@nerissa8701the others person's comment unintentionally proved your point lmaooo. I bet that person is a native english speaker. I am a native english speaker and I had to read what you wrote twice. Not because it was unclear, but because I went with my intuition and emotion about what you were saying instead of focusing on what you said.
Our command of our native language can be a detriment in some cases. We read between the lines instead of reading what is on the line. It causes us to have bias and add things into the message that were never there.
The korean students taking the test don't have that extra layer if bias, they just have the words/facts in front of them. That's all they need.
You made your point well. Well said.
I'm going to miss these year 13 boys bcs they are graduating soon. This group made me laugh so much, I really love the series. I wish all the luck to them and also can't help but hope I see them on more videos ❤️ thanks for great content as always!
can anyone explain why do they have Year 13? what's their education system like
@@twiceswift_ They are 18 years old now, and high school here finishes at 16 and the 17/18 is college which is year 12/13
You graduate in year 11 do your gcse exams then go to sixth if you want to go to university (year 12-13) and take a levels some schools have their own sixth forms like this one
