I googled/wikipediad csat and didn't find anything. Like how many points is it worth and what is the total possible score? I assume all subjects are on it. Anyone know the marking breakdown

Thanks

It should be up to five hundred point this year, probably 14 subjects.

If you are typing and reading in English try "KSAT" or "KCSAT" or "Korean College Entrance Examination", but it would be better if you type Korean and then type in "su-neung". Sorry if you can't transliterate that properly, I don't have Korean font on this keyboard.

Also, if you go to the EBS website, you will find TONS of information on the test. The problem you will find, however, is that the site assumes you already possess a dense base of public knowledge on the subject and doesn't explain the particulars very well.

Good luck.

College newspaper article on the test and international competitiveness:

This should give you most of the information you need:

대학수학능력시험

The English page is weaker:

CSAT

But maybe this is what you really want:

KICE

It seems the max score is still 400, but I heard that it should be moving up to 500 in the next few years or so.

Bumping this cause the OP doesn't seem to be a regular poster and may have missed the info as it got shunted down the line fast as we discuss our normal mix of dogmeat, girls and outraged Filipinas.
