I don't think you can because from what I have heard, the interview is a really big part of the selection process

No. You must take an interview as the school uses it as an important part of the entrance process.

    For writing the Written Expression Exam, can I use a pencil instead of a pen? Or is there a rule that I have to use a pen?
    Thank you

      How many questions are there on the science reasoning for JMSS

        Does anyone know when the applications open for JMSS?

          apparently they'll open late Feb or early March

            Also, I want to know what the Nossal year 10 entrance exam will be like in 2024 for 2025 entrance. I really want to get an offer this year. If anyone has done the year 10 entrance exam, please, I mean please tell me what types of questions will be on the exam. Thanks!

            Could you somehow give any resources as i have decided to study for the test now and im not going to a tutor

            @nuclei I'm currently getting mostly High Averages or Averages in Science for James An College JMSS Practise tests, and I'm getting (everytime) Above Averages for NR and Mathematics in these tests. In writing, I'm getting 15+/20 marks. Do you think that I have a good chance this year?

              It really depends on how everyone else taking the test does since it's more of a competitive thing. I haven't done any JAC tests but from what I hear, they're harder than the JMSS test. The JMSS test is easier than ACER SEHS/Scholarship tests so you probably have a good chance.

              Yeah, there Is always heaps of competition between people, however I find the science part usually more confusing, could you please refer to any books I should study to learn the content. Again, Thank you...

                I mainly worked form my school's Pearson book for Year 9. Most of the science content is fairly simple and the rest is just interpreting data. If you find textbooks hard to learn from, I'd recommend The Organic Chemistry Tutor on YouTube, the way he explains it is really easy to understand and he provides multiple examples to help.

                  nuclei By the way, have you by chance given the Year 10 entrance exam for MHS,NHS,Macrob? If you have, can you give me tips on how the exam will look like?

                    Unfortunately I can't help you much with that since I've never applied for any of those schools. Best of luck though!!
