The 2022 Korean SAT is coming, and many students, their parents, their teachers, and other experts are becoming worried about the test because of the risk of COVID-19. As it is too important for them, the Korean government purposed to vaccinate all examinees of the test in July and make a stable test site throughout the summer vacation.

The Korean educational authorities are concerned about how to decide the list of those who will be vaccinated because the vaccinating period is earlier than the Korean SAT application period. In the case of the high school seniors, the list of the targets can be identified through the school, but in the case of the repeaters, it may be difficult to pick out the list. A person from the Ministry of Education said that they would discuss with the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency the way how to secure the list ultimately.

Meanwhile, the quarantine authorities said that the high school seniors and examinees of Korean SAT would be vaccinated in July, which is the first time that a vaccination plan for all its examinees, except for current high school seniors who have been already confirmed, was confirmed. Now, the vaccination is going to be implemented for the 50s, high school seniors and examinees of Korean SAT, and school teachers in order.
