Why I Failed My GKS University Interview... Don't Make the Same Mistake!

I applied through the Embassy Track (USA), but I failed my interview with ChungAng University...
I hope this video will help applicants avoid the mistake I made and be successful in their university interviews!

I got shortlisted for the embassy interview, but unfortunately did not manage to pass the interview evaluations because I messed up haha. Now I'm applying for the University track to my number one choice, and this video is really helpful (again!!) So thank you so much!

    @@nurulaliah792 there are quite many reasons but MBA is fully in English and better organized than regular Business Adm master programs so dont worry about it. I took a few classes from them and I would be ok to be a regular there… less students, nicer faciliated classrooms and more comprehensive curriculum. The regular track is just for Chinese students who fail to enter universities in China and pay their way off to make the school rich 🥲 They don’t speak English at all, most of them don’t speak Korean either. They just memorize everything and pretend like they know. No critical thinking, no free discussion in the classes. And there are too many students that profs cant even help you with your final projects where you need to come up with your own idea and present, then they complain about your topic or research methods 🤡 also all materials are in English but every body speaks Korean during lecture so there is not even a source to learn the Korean vocabulary in the classes 🤡 and international office does not let international students in masters know about anything going on in the school…

I think you should start preparing now since it takes a while to get everything taken care of~ and then you can apply once you graduate 😊 unfortunately you have to pay for all of the documents in order to send your application to gks so there is a risk of wasting your money... 🥺 that's the downside of applying because it's not guaranteed that you'll get accepted 😢 and then the visa will be taken care of if you get accepted! Good luck with your application process!! Btw I did gks G so maybe my answers could be different from gks U? So double check the niied guidelines just in case 😊

    1. I don't know much about gks undergraduate but I think the certificate is like your diploma and the marksheet is a list of your grades. 2. Actually the copies will all be exact copies as the original, so you need to write essays that can apply generally to all the universities instead of each 3 that you're applying to~

    @virginiasvoyage I also didn't, and I failed all three universities.. I searched for my courses in all universities, I did research about the courses and labs in each university, and only one university contacted me for an interview. But, i did that interview dirty. I was blah-blah, I shouldve been more specific. I wonder why the other two didn't contact me, maybe it's my mistake for not reaching out to their professors or labs. But I think gks has become more competitive that, it has come to a state where they only select students with more than 90% marks or with topik 4 or 5. But, I will try next year, but, can you help like, what are the documents you submitted, internships, or training you did that you feel like it helped a lot during the evaluation.. can you make such videos??
