The 3% cap is no longer applicable. Instead, we are given a cap that is set by the Department of Education a cap for each school as it varies each year, depending on cohort levels and those already selected to attend other select entry schools.

The maximum number of students admitted into John Monash Science School in Year 10 will be an appropriate quota as set by the Department of Education, based on the applicant’s current school’s Year 9 enrolment. There is no cap on enrolments from any one school to JMSS at any other year level

Hope this helps!
Btw- this is from a JMSS staff member

    Does half the applicants that try the test get an interview?

      Is the test similar to the edutest practice papers?.

      you said, we are given a cap that is set by the Department of Education a cap for each school as it varies each year. So there is a cap right

        You said: Instead, we are given a cap that is set by the Department of Education a cap for each school as it varies each year, depending on cohort levels and those already selected to attend other select entry schools.
        This means there is a cap set to each school by the department of education but its different to each school.

        TT556 They will probably give a low cap to selective schools to make it fair (I hope)

            Is it true that there is a lot more competition this year than last year for jmss

              I think there is becuz slowly more people are gaining information about JMSS compared to a few years back. I actually didn't know about the school until the start of this year.

                Hi, I have a 87.25 percent average in Science with one B+ and the rest As and A+s. I also have 92 percent grade average. Do you think JMSS will be ok with that?

                can someone plss give an example for science intrest and communication and the format on how to write it plss

                  Hi.

                  From my knowledge based on the Previous years' jmss entry forum. It is like this essay where they'll give you a bunch of information around a specific topic and you have to write something similar to an essay. It is your usual essay format and the information will be something related to the latest scientific findings.

                  Hope that helps!

                    how do we write an science essay??
