In order to accomplish this end, I sketched university entrance system as a whole, applying procedures and entrance requirements, selecting criteria, and explore interview systems of leading universities, including Oxford, Cambridge, UCL and Imperial College. The university entrance system in the UK is closely related to the educational achievements at secondary schools and sixth form colleges. Admissions tutors look at applicant's academic ability and potential through various entrance requirements. Leading universities such as Oxbridge stress performance at interview with excellent examination grades, due to competition for places is strong. Admissions tutors are looking for the students who are best suited to the unique university education in general and the course applied for. The university entrance system in the UK would be shed light on Korea university entrance system in terms of basic principles and interviews as a whole and of addressing the academic ability and potential to flourish at the university.

한국천문올림피아드(KAO)는 경시대회에 의한 입시 과열 및 사교육 조장 논란으로 촉발된 정부 정책의 변화로 2010년 1차 선발 방식을 지필고사에서 서류전형으로 바꾸는 등 대대적인 개편을 겪었다. 그 결과로 지원자 수의 급감 등 양적 변화 외에 지원자의 성향에 있어서도 상당한 변화가 예상되고 있다. 이에 따라 2011년도 KAO 2차 선발 심층면접 참가 학생 96명을 대상으로 실시한 설문조사를 토대로 KAO 참가 동기, 참가준비방법, 타 올림피아드 중복 참가 여부, 그리고 천문올림피아드 자체교육(온라인 강좌, 인터넷과제, 주말교육) 및 서류심사, 심층면접에 대한 평가 의견을 전체 및 소속 학교별, 성별, 지역별로 분류하여 분석하였다. 또한 위의 결과를 2010년도에 시범적으로 실시한 설문조사 결과와 비교 분석하여 시간적 변화 추이에 대해서도 살펴보았다. 이로부터 도출된 결론을 바탕으로 단기적 관점에서 KAO의 선발 방식 및 선발학생의 교육을 어떤 방식으로 개선해나가야 할지, 그리고 장기적 관점에서 천문학에 관심 있는 과학영재를 어떻게 발굴하고 육성해나갈지에 대해 논의했다.

To enhance employment rate of students, every college provides various methods, such as consulting, information provision, course and mock interview. Students also are trying to get high GPA scores, to achieve certificates and to enhance english ability for getting jobs. We analyzed the relations self-confidence in getting jobs, college supports, students preparation for getting jobs and job-seeking stress via structural equation modelling. We found that college supports increase students preparation for getting jobs and job-seeking stress lessens self-confidence in getting jobs.
