SpaceLover what did u get a sup in?

SpaceLover ohh okk

Honestly I didn't have much prep on my interview when I did but there are 2 stages which u probably know..
Group interview - make sure you take initiative and suggest new ideas, this accounts for about 30% of the interview selection so if you do mid-bad, its ok its not over yet.
1 to 1 interview - this is the main hurdle where they will assess you. Stay confident but don't boast yourself (dont be overconfident). Try not to be nervous as well and stutter. Basically you need to be right in the middle. When they ask you questions try to have eye contact too. Idk if this works for everyone but I had some small chat and talks with my interviewer too which made both of us feel comfortable with each other. Also mainly try to explain your passion for science if you can. So this is my experience so don't fully rely on it and take it with a grain of salt. It can be different for everyone
SpaceLover did u hv alot of science involvements?

Mathematic

No not really. Tbh again in my experience, CV didnt matter that much in my opinion as my interview didnt show much interest. But just saying don't follow my steps, make sure your CV is appealing.
Ok anyways good luck guys. Thats it from me
SpaceLover Thats cool! I'm trying to at least get 1 sup and i feel like my maths is def stronger than my science
SpaceLover thanks!
are yall studying for jmss rn?
they should honestly make the process more fair and have like an interview first then shortlist people to get in... one test shouldnt determine your career... what if you get too nervous and fail the test when you do have the passion?
- Edited
ThinkSharp thats a valid point but js imagine how many interviews they would hv to to do like those poor interviewers interviewing over 1500 kids
yeah thats the only downside...
maybe they should do an online application then shortlist for an interview based on passion/achievements?
ThinkSharp yea but an online application isn’t the most reliable like they don’t know these ppl at all so they can’t tell if they wrote it, a parent wrote it etc
ThinkSharp no but they probably want smart people so they have a good rep and good vce scores
