Sample Military Civilian Grade 7 Admin Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Military Civilian Grade 7 Admin exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Korean Language (국어), 훈민정음 제자해. Which statement about how the five basic initial consonants were created is correct?
A.The five basic initials ㄱ, ㄴ, ㅁ, ㅅ and ㅇ were shaped after the speech organs — the molars, tongue, lips, teeth and throat
B.The basic initials were shaped after the three powers: heaven (·), earth (ㅡ) and humanity (ㅣ)
C.Among the basic letters, ㄱ was shaped after the tip of the tongue touching the upper gum
D.Among the basic letters, ㅁ was shaped after the molars meeting
Explanation: 제자해 explains each basic initial as a picture of the organ that produces it: ㄱ the root of the tongue blocking the throat, ㄴ the tongue touching the upper gum, ㅁ the shape of the mouth, ㅅ the shape of a tooth and ㅇ the throat.
2Korean Language (국어), 중세 국어. Which statement about fifteenth-century Korean phonology and orthography is INCORRECT?
A.ㅅ and ㄷ had merged in final position, so the seven-final-consonant rule was strictly applied with ㄷ alone
B.Tone was marked with dots at the left of the syllable — no dot for 평성, one for 거성 and two for 상성
C.Initial consonant clusters such as ㅄ existed and were actually pronounced as clusters
D.Vowel harmony, matching bright vowels with bright and dark with dark, was observed far more strictly than in modern Korean
Explanation: Fifteenth-century writing followed the eight-final-consonant practice, using ㄱ, ㄴ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ, ㅅ and ㅇ, and ㄷ and ㅅ were still distinguished in pronunciation. The merger that leaves seven finals belongs to the Early Modern period from the seventeenth century.
3Korean Language (국어), 중세 국어. In the line 곶 됴코 여름 하나니 from 용비어천가 (Songs of the Dragons Flying to Heaven), which analysis is correct?
A.여름 is a derived noun meaning fruit, from the verb stem 열- (to bear) plus the nominalising suffix -음
B.여름 refers to summer, the hot season of the year
C.하나니 is a numeral meaning 'one'
D.곶 means a cape, a headland jutting into the sea
Explanation: In this line 곶 is 꽃 (flower), 됴코 is 좋고 (good), 여름 is the fruit derived from 열- plus -음, and 하나니 comes from 하다 meaning 'to be many'. The line praises a tree whose flowers are fine and whose fruit is abundant.
4Korean Language (국어), 한자 표기. Which group writes all three administrative terms with the correct Hanja?
A.척결(剔抉) — 안보(安保) — 보급(補給)
B.척결(尺決) — 안보(案步) — 보급(報給)
C.척결(拓結) — 안보(安寶) — 보급(保及)
D.척결(隻缺) — 안보(顔普) — 보급(步急)
Explanation: 척결 uses 剔 (to scrape flesh from bone) and 抉 (to gouge out), giving the sense of rooting something out. 안보 uses 安 (safe) and 保 (to protect), and 보급 uses 補 (to supplement) and 給 (to provide).
5Korean Language (국어), 사자성어. Which idiom describes deceiving an opponent into lowering their guard and then striking where they are unprepared?
A.성동격서(聲東擊西)
B.파부침주(破釜沈舟)
C.권토중래(捲土重來)
D.수주대토(守株待兔)
Explanation: 성동격서 means making noise in the east and attacking in the west: the feint draws the enemy's attention one way while the real blow falls elsewhere.
6Korean Language (국어), 형태소 분석. How many morphemes does 그는 새 모자를 썼다 contain, and how are they divided?
A.Eight: 그 / 는 / 새 / 모자 / 를 / 쓰- / -었- / -다
B.Six: 그 / 는 / 새 / 모자 / 를 / 썼다
C.Six: 그 / 는 / 새모자 / 를 / 쓰- / -었다
D.Five morphemes in total
Explanation: The pronoun 그, the particle 는, the determiner 새, the noun 모자 and the particle 를 are five; the predicate splits into the stem 쓰-, the past pre-final ending -었- and the final ending -다, giving eight morphemes in all.
7Korean Language (국어), 문장 성분의 호응. Which sentence has grammatically consistent agreement between its parts?
A.우리가 주목해야 할 점은 이 무기 체계가 실전에서 얼마나 효과적인가 하는 점이다.
B.내가 하고 싶은 말은 다음 주부터 야간 훈련이 실시된다.
C.그는 비록 실패는 했지만 결코 좌절하겠다.
D.아침 일찍 일어난 그는 세수를 하고 밥을 먹었다는 사실이다.
Explanation: The subject 점은 is answered by the predicate 점이다, and inside the embedded clause the interrogative 얼마나 is matched by the ending -ㄴ가. Subject and predicate agree at both levels.
8Korean Language (국어), 고전 시가. Which statement about 정철's gasa 사미인곡(思美人曲) is INCORRECT?
A.It gives a realistic account of the author's exploits as a righteous-army commander repelling Japanese invaders
B.It is a 연군지사 that expresses a subject's unwavering loyalty to the king through a woman's longing after separation
C.It carries the speaker's devotion through the four seasons, with images such as the plum blossom, summer clothing, autumn moonlight and spring warmth
D.Its closing lines imagine the speaker dying and returning as a butterfly to reach the beloved
Explanation: 사미인곡 was written after 정철 withdrew to Changpyeong in South Jeolla during the factional strife between the Easterners and Westerners, and it voices his longing for King Seonjo. It is not a war narrative; gasa about fighting the Japanese invasion belong to writers such as 박인로.
9Korean Language (국어), 한자 독음. In which sentence is the reading given for the Sino-Korean word incorrect?
A.신형 전차의 정비 항목을 ‘索引(삭인)’에서 찾아 검토하였다.
B.국방력의 ‘龜裂(균열)’을 방지하기 위해 군 기강을 확립했다.
C.적의 도발을 ‘遮斷(차단)’하였다.
D.유사시 비상 ‘召集(소집)’ 훈련을 실시하였다.
Explanation: 索 is read 색 when it means to search and 삭 when it means a rope. An index to a document is 색인(索引), so the reading 삭인 is wrong.
10Korean Language (국어), 중세 국어 음운사. Which statement about the letters ㅸ (순경음 비읍) and ㅿ (반치음) is correct?
A.Both were used in fifteenth-century texts and then disappeared, ㅸ generally weakening to the semivowel of the ㅗ/ㅜ series and ㅿ dropping out of the language
B.Both are still used in modern Korean orthography with their fifteenth-century values
C.Both were created in the nineteenth century to write Western loanwords
D.Both stood for tense consonants, as ㄲ and ㅆ do today
Explanation: ㅸ was a light labial fricative that generally weakened during the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, leaving a ㅗ or ㅜ glide in words such as 덥- becoming 더워, while ㅿ, a voiced sibilant, was lost by the sixteenth century, as in 마ᅀᆞᆯ becoming 마을.

Military Civilian Grade 7 Admin: Suggested Study Strategy

1Pace yourself at exactly 1 minute per question: 100 questions in 100 minutes across 4 diverse subjects requires rapid cognitive shifting between verbal, legal, and quantitative modes.
2Thoroughly drill economic calculation problems (elasticity, consumer equilibrium, profit-maximizing output, multiplier effects, IS-LM intersections) to build rapid problem-solving speed without a calculator.
3Master Supreme Court administrative precedents, especially regarding administrative standing, legal interest to sue (원고적격), and the scope of judicial review over administrative discretion.
4Review Classical Korean grammar (훈민정음 28자, 제자원리, 중세국어 격조사 및 어미), which is tested on Grade 7 military civilian Korean papers alongside standard modern orthography.
5Ensure your English (TOEIC 570+ / G-TELP 47+) and Korean History (Grade 3+) scores are officially registered before submitting your application.
