뜻
To prepare academically for a test.
문화적 배경
The 'Selectividad' is the most famous exam students study for. It happens in June and determines university entrance. Students often use the term 'acordeón' for a cheat sheet, though teachers warn them to 'estudiar para el examen' instead of making one. University exams are often oral. Students 'estudian para el final' knowing they will have to speak in front of a tribunal. The 'Pruebas Saber 11' (formerly ICFES) are the national exams that high schoolers study for intensely.
