“Making IDP and MBTI test is expected to help students design their future, both in the short, medium, and long term and make students’ goals more focused,” said Syahrul Wirahadi, coordinator of the KKNT Inovasi IPB University team.
The socialization was followed by an interactive workshop on university information, entry points, and administrative requirements. In addition, information about various scholarships that can help finance lectures was also presented.
