yr 10 selective interview prep

[procrastinator101]

hi got an interview offer for yr 10 schs, does anyone know what questions the interviewers r gonna ask? does anyone know how the interview will pan out because i'm not sure as past years for other selective schools have gotten stuff like "you're separated into groups of 6 and you have to talk about real world problems, how to solve them etc.".
i'm not sure any specific questions they'll ask though.
also anyone else here received an offer?

also feel free to use this as a chat space for the jmss interviews!

yeah same, I'm so anxious. I think they ask questions from your application and maybe a question on covid. What time is yours?

chances are they will, they will probably ask how you coped with it.
Tips for interview:
Think before saying anything this way you dont stutter (feel free to ask for more time they are nice)
Prepare for the interview, think of some question you think they are going to say and prepare a response

mine is next Wednesday as well, 2:00-3:30 pm. It's 1hr and 30 mins which seems intense...
 
I hope you do well and get a spot!!

Does it say you are going to do a written task as well?
If so then what might it be about it and will it be hard?
For the interview is it going to be general questions or something else?
Thanks for your help

Nope, I think for Suzanne cory it's a group interview. Btw I also did get an interview from jmss and I'm also confused about what the writing task is. Regarding the interview questions, Im pretty sure the interview for Suzanne Cory will be general questions but for jmss it will be science-specialised questions. Hope this helps you.
