I have a friend who has done this interview 2 years ago and he found it pretty simple and he got in. He told me this: "It's about how you talk with your group and how you contribute. It doesn't matter whether you're wrong or right its about how hard you try."

The group activity is to show that you can co-operate with others and contribute to discussion

What is the order for the interview is it alphabetical like the way they anoubces it on the day or is it based on score
Not sure, but pretty much everybody in my school (5, including me) got an interview on the 14th.
Don't know if it's by alphabetical order of schools

Did the email for second round actually go out to everyone who didnt get in or just those who were selected for second round?

I got an email to and I'm pretty sure the email was only sent out to people that are chosen for a secound round.

The email is only for people who got interviews & second round offer.
If you didn't get one, that means you didn't get an interview nor second round offer for an interview. Unlike selective school, they give out your results/school offer.
P.s If you want to know your results pretty sure you have to ask JMSS after they've finalised who's gotten into the school

Did you finish your interview, Turtle

How long was the interview?
In your perspective, how hard was the puzzle?

Hahah I’m desperate

I did finish it. The whole thing took about an hour for me, but the individual interview was shorter than I expected, maybe about 10 minutes? In fact, I would urge you not to worry too much - once I was in the interview, I relaxed because it was a fun experience, I made new friends and got to talk with people from other schools. Trust me, I didn't feel nervous once I was in my group and completing activites.

The math problem I got was honestly super easy. Just make sure you show all working out, and try to think of a more efficient/elegant way to solve it, as opposed to brute forcing your way to an answer. :)
