JMSS Entry Tips

eee The essay structure ( I think) will be 1) A scientific report consisting of an aim, hypothesis, method, discussion with validity, reliability... conclusion etc. (again you can ask chat gpt for feedback on this. 2) A "creative" essay where you receive a prompt and use some light scientific knowledge to create a creative-ish but mainly scientific piece basically following the report structure less and more focusing on your interpretation of the information given.

The scientific multiple choice will be based off the year 9 curriculum topics so your textbooks or resources from school would really be beneficial for this (or chat gpt bahah). Basically, everything is to test the extent of your general science knowledge. (idk if that made sense, if you scroll up the explanations are much better.

is it impossible to get into jmss if i start studying now?
also could you provide some sample questions for science report and informative essay?

YOMAMA
same that my question is it possible to get in do you have any tips

At this point im just cramming stuff up
The maths bit im just practising JAC questions i had last yr for selective
i still dont understand the science repots and stuff
for science reasoning am i just supposed to study yr 9 science book??
plss helpp

YOMAMA i think so we need to study the year 9 science book

Do u guys have any time management tips during the tests?? Especially for maths and NR? Currently that’s what I’m struggling with. Also has anyone found the strive for excellence practice tests useful?

Yes

Hii,

I'm a former student who attended both JAC and Brain works, and in my opinion, I don't think that either of those will prepare you extremely well, unless you take a JAC course that includes trial test, as it may help you get into the habit of time management. I recommend you take a year higher as well in order to gain the best chance in learning and studying for the test.

Goodluck!!

One of my friends went there but said it was nothing like the real test, the tutoring questions were way easier

MMHS oh ok thank you

niv3 no problem, if you want practice you can always use OZ tests

nomiiie are the questions in the science reasoning like interpreting information from a graph or data and answering them?

I've been doing icas practise papers for about 2 weeks. Do you reckon that it'll help me?

HELPP me reading everyones thoughts on the JAC tests and how they won't prepare me or are much easier then the actual exam have got me tripping, I'm already finding those hard OMLL, I'm done for and I haven't been studying as much as I should.

eee idk if everyone's talking about the online practise tests or generic JAC course's. If anyone took the specific JMSS course at JAC please let me know if it was easier or harder because I'm ngl Im falling behind and not doing too well.

eee
same here I have been stuck and I think I am not doing enough but still give it your all !!!
I don't know if I asked you or not and I may have said this to everyone but by chance are you willing to send any Test papers PDF on science topics and formats that could help me if you do not want to send them here I can send my email to you if you are willing to send it. Please HELP

This a Motivation Quote for anyone I guess
"ARE YOU WORKING HARD ENOUGH "
