Around How many questions did you finish up within maths, and is there a lot of guessing that you had to do?

I ended up doing 59/60 of the questions but that’s just coz I forgot to go back to the last one when I finished. I only guessed a few (maybe 5?) but it was still good enough for me to get an above average. I am also bad at math and didn’t study for it so... yeah.

To double check, this thread is for people in year nine this year  (2021) and (considering) applying for JMSS for Year 10 (2022)?

[Nerd01939]

Yep

Yeah most of my friends did that and got superiors but I'm really bad at math so even though I almost finished, I reckon I didn't get much right.

What study did you do for the test?
As in for math and science did you go through chapters of your textbook or do practice tests as I'm currently doing practice tests and going through my textbook for maths and science?

That’s all I did and I ended up actually doing well on the test

[JZou276]

did you do any tutoring?

[Hellothisisme]

Nah ppl from past years said it wasn’t worth it

[JZou276]

oh, do they prioritise superiors in science or are they all equal

[Nerd01939]

oh, do they prioritise superiors in science or are they all equal

Everything’s equal coz there are some ppl who want to go to JMSS for technology or math and not necessarily science.

[JZou276]

oh ok, im doing jac for jmss is it any good?

Yeah, a lot of ppl from there always get in and it’s definitely one of the best for JMSS specifically. Just remember that it is also supposed to be a lot harder than the exam itself.

yep thanks for the advice
