Nutella

IZM Good on your daughter! I'm not sure what to expect for the interview, but normally they would ask your daughter questions, and in order to stand out, make sure to answer in detail and note her achievements as well.
Yes, I'm pretty sure the 2nd round offers are over. Third round will be 19th of October.

Congratulations!

While that depends on how competitive people who sat the exam at your school are, you could try comparing it to others you know who did get an offer from your school. Even then, other factors will be involved such as how many offers are distributed in subsequent rounds.

Good luck!

rekt_AN

someone which school is your first preference?

Thanks so much
My school isnt that competitive because only 22 people sat the exam and there 340 people in my cohort and there are 12 or so maximum spots, but 5 people got in so 7 are left. But as you said that it depends on the acceptable result and the offers distributed.

rekt_AN congratulations.. I would really appreciate if you can share how did you prepare for creative expression and if you can recommend any coaching or tutors. My results we AA in everything and A in writing. I will still try next year for JMSS.

First round Nossal offer!
Was genuinely surprised about writing tbh; I didn’t finish my piece and thought I would do pretty bad in it.

MMHS

Randomhuman24 hi! im sitting my exam this year in june. I just wanted to ask what your thoughts on each test were? Like the difficulty and if it was harder or easier than expected. Also, for verbal reasoning, are there lots of hard vocabulary or would you say that most are around yr 8-9 level. For math, what were the topics that you were questioned on. And for writing did u do a whole story or only a scene? Thanks, and congrats on your acceptance, hope your going well in nossal!

rekt_AN

hochanh i submitted the PD application on the 11th. Few days later, though, I got an offer anyways, so yeah, that's cool

Anyone have any idea if there is something similar planned for Macrob/ Nossal?

Cheesecake7

salma_7052 congratulations !! I would really appreciate if you can share how did you prepare for creative expression and if you can recommend any coaching or tutors. My results we AA in everything and A in writing. I will still try next year for JMSS.

rekt_AN

Cheesecake7 1 month from the exam, i started writing an essay per day, alternating between creative and persuasive. Not only will it help you with time efficiency, but I also picked up a few extra things that helped me.

salma_7052

While I didn’t complete any tuition or coaching in preparation for the exam - so I can’t help you in that area - my best advice would be consistent practice under the exam conditions to sharpen your skills in preparation to write fluently.

I completed 1 creative and 1 analytical prompt each week. The most important part of this process is to be actively correcting and setting goals to improve after each attempt. You can do this by consulting a family member, (English) teacher, tutor, or even ATARNotes for feedback.

In terms of resources, here are some prompts/ guides I used (THESE ARE NOT MINE):

Also might want to check out some of the AN articles/ threads around information and resources specific to the JMSS exam.

Good luck 😉

salma_7052 thanks a lot. This will help a lot. Do you know from where we can find past mock tests of Hendersons or James?
