The implementation of the UTBK this year is different from the previous year because of the Covid-19 pandemic situation.
Fenia Amanda, one of the UTBK-SBMPTN participants, was very enthusiastic when interviewed about her impression relating to the exam, "Honestly, I am very nervous, and within this condition I have to join with other participants, we must be more cautious. Besides that, I did make preparation by studying continuously, so hopefully the results are good. I hope in the future I can be qualified enough to get into UPN Veteran Jakarta, because from the two choices (what majors and which universities) that we should made, I used all choices for UPNVJ, the majors are Accounting and Development Economics". Said Fenia
Besides Fenia, there were Davina that willingly to spare some time to do an interview with the Public Relations Team, Davina commending about health protocol that UPNVJ applied, "In my opinion, the protocol that has been applied by UPNVJ is very good and pretty much conducive. Also the committees that were given health protocol instructions are very friendly, efficient and responsive. In addition, UPNVJ provided hand washing area right before entering the campus environment. Hopefully the participants of UTBK for this year will get the best results, accord with our choices, although we are facing a test in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, bear in mind to always pray and stay healthy" She explained.
Among the preparations that have been made by UTBK participants, the most impactful support to boosts their confidence is the support from parents and family. From the first day until today, parents and family faithfully accompany UTBK participants to the front gate of the test location (UPNVJ).
