What are the time limits for each test?

Hello all users. I would like to ask about JMSS to all prospective and past/current students.

My son has recently tried out for selective schools, and ultimately, didn't make it into his preferred school (he got an offer to Nossal High but decided not to go). I ,for one, am not a big fan of the 4 Selective schools, however do think JMSS would be a lot more beneficial than SEHS. How can I help him prepare for the test and (hopefully🤞) interview? I am looking for resources to aid him in preparing for the test, as well as how the exam works, and how I should prepare him in the case of a potential interview. He mostly gets academic awards (recently got an Overall Academic Award) and plans on joining a sports team in school. I do have many more questions but would firstly like to get the basics done and dusted. 🙂

    akina If anyone has previously taken the test (best for 2025 entry), I would also like insights from this years test & interview.

    Hello everyone,
    I wanted to ask whether JMSS students have to bring the JMSS backpack or are they allowed to bring their own provided that it is appropriately coloured.

    Thanks,
    USA

    HAPPY HOLIDAYS

        I'm in the same boat, please someone help us!

          akina If your son likes science or is passionate in STEM then jmss is definitely more beneficial than SEHS

            hey Akira can you tell me one thing, I've been doing practice tests but in these tests it gives all the information and it's just about applying it into the question. Although is this the case, or do I have to memorize stuff like metamorphic rocks and stuff.

            If so, then can you please give me a checklist of everything to learn, because with no textbook I kind of have to rely on Google and YouTube.
