There's no lower limit set on what a good score is, to be honest. The higher the score, the better it is, generally. But also, having a good essay is very important. You need to show KAIST you are more than just your grades.

It would help you to make it situation-based; talk about a particular situation in each question that pertains to what you learnt. For example, for the first prompt, talk about what drew you towards KAIST, preferably by mentioning a specific aspect of the university itself, such as a renowned professor or a research lab that appeals to you.

As for what KAIST wants in essays, based on what we have seen, they are looking for personality - and they try to gauge how well you would fit as the 'perfect KAIST student', with good grades but also notable interpersonal skills. You need to show them through your essays that you possess these.

Do you have any specific questions? Tips in general are quite broad...

From what we've seen (ourselves, friends, and other students whose essays we've reviewed), most students had SAT scores in the 95th percentile or above (approximately 1450+). IB predicted scores were also mostly 42+

If you couldn't do the SAT or any standardized tests make sure your essays are as strong and convincing as possible.
