The 50% of people from the exam are given interviews. Interviews usually have a group activity first before your individual interview. I wouldnt stress on that yet as we have yet to complete the exam.

On top of that, I'm pretty sure you gotta do some maths so they see how you work things out...

So I applied and registered for the test but it doesn't mention where it will be taking place nor what time
Any help?

As I mentioned previously for G_00123: "I'm pretty sure that it is at Caulfield Racecourse in the early morning (8ish) on the 9th of June (Saturday). I haven't received an email but I know because I went to the Information Night. I'm pretty sure this info is right but you should confirm with someone else, just in case." Hope this helped! :)

As far as I know that's correct. I mean I was at Info Night too it'd be strange if we had different info... ;D
I've heard that you do receive an email though, so I'm going to call the school if they don't send an email by Monday.

They'll send an email detailing everything sometime this week, from my memory they sent it on the Monday before the test (so maybe tomorrow?)

I'm seriously stressing out for the exam so I just wanted to ask people what topics in science they're revising. I'm scared I haven't studied enough and that I'm not going to be fast enough. PLEASE if anyone has any advice on the exam, it would really help!

I'm pretty sure they'll send more news on Monday or Tuesday because Monday is the closing date and want to send everybody files at the same time I.g

Honestly, I haven't gone to any. Fair to say I have been studying a lot though, which I guess makes up for it?...

Hey Guys! Just wanted to let you know that I got my email today at 7:52 am. It included the information regarding the venue and times. You guys should also have gotten it. If not, then you'll probably get it soon. I was right, it is at Caulfield Racecourse at 8:30 am on June 9th. The test finishes at 12:15 pm. The email also contained a map that told you about all the parking available. Hope this helps some of you guys! :) :)

I'm the only kid from my school, who is doing the exam. Does my chance of getting increase?

Damn, you're lucky there's like at least 15 people writing from my school.
Well, I think it kinda depends on your test. If you do well, and get into the interviews, you definitely might have good chance of getting in, but it doesn't mean they have to pick you.
 :)
Good luck everyone

Do you guys think volunteering for like science community stuff would play a part in the interviews?? Like would they take that in consideration
I'm thinking of volunteering regardless bc I'm really interested in it for my own benefits but idk
Wanna wish everyone good luck for this weekend btw :) #3daystogo
i have spoken to people and it seems that what JMSS looks for and really likes is all-rounders. If you can play sport and do well in school they'll really like that, however if you are really good at school but not so good at anything else, they'll take that into consideration. All in all, it probably will play a part in whether you're chosen or not.

personally, i'm not so great at sports but im good at studying. I signed up for some teams just to show that i take initiative in trying new things out of my comfort zone. I encourage y'all to do the same.
