It looks almost exactly the same. The only difference I notice is that you get 18 points for KIIP Level 5, and since that is the cultural program (한국사회이해), which is a separate 10 points, it's a bit confusing.

I don't get it. Perhaps you get 28 points for completing the entire KIIP program. I'm just curious because of my friends, who are interested in it.

From my experience, you should receive points both for the course itself (10 points?) and for the Korean language ability that completing the course indicates you have (18 points?).

It seems that way.

Can confirm that is the case. I went to apply last Friday as the change bumped me from 80 points to 83 (I'd been holding off to complete my masters at a local university to get extra points for edu and study in Korea and wanted the extra cushion)

They gave the full 28 points for level 5. (10 in the extra points bracket, and 18 in the language points bracket)
