Типичные ошибки

• ✗저는 경제학을 전공이에요
  ✓제 전공은 경제학이에요

  전공 (major) is a noun. Use the pattern: 제 전공은 [subject]이에요. Saying 전공이에요 without the topic structure is unnatural.

• ✗대학교를 입학했어요
  ✓대학교에 입학했어요

  입학하다 (to enrol) requires the destination particle 에, not the object particle 를.

• ✗장학금을 받는 됐어요
  ✓장학금을 받았어요

  There is no -는 됐어요 pattern here. To say you received something, use the simple past: 받았어요.

• ✗강의 들었어요
  ✓강의를 들었어요

  들다 (to hear/take a class) is a transitive verb requiring an object marked with 을/를. Dropping the particle is informal.

• ✗논문 씁니다를 했어요
  ✓논문을 썼어요

  쓰다 (to write) in the past tense is 썼어요. Do not combine formal -ㅂ니다 with -했어요.
