JMSS Entry Tips
This is just a quick example I took from Chat GPT if your looking for some simple practise (I would recommend going more in depth, and that could mean just answering the general question without relying on process of elimination or reading all the answer options available (A-D) and researching what each of them mean/gaining a deeper understanding of the topic to expand your knowledge. Often I find that by answering not only the question but knowing each of the answers and their meaning help broaden my knowledge.
Section A: Biology

A) Presence of a nucleus
B) Membrane-bound organelles
C) Small size
D) Presence of mitochondria
What is the function of chloroplasts in plant cells?
A) Protein synthesis

A) It produces haploid cells
B) It is involved in sexual reproduction
C) It results in two identical daughter cells

eee Thanks a lot but CHATGPT won't generate images/diagrams right and I don't know how accurate it is to the real exam.Do you have any websites or papers

Just sign up for free - I used my google account
Akira I can't get the link to work would you mind sending it again please?
nuclei Hi, i got a superior for nr last year (sehs) without any preparation or studying, do you think I should just wing the jmss test? i have a bunch of school work, assignments, tests and afterschool stuff so I have almost no time to study for jmss. any help would be great, thanks
applejuice27 i mean if you get high grades and you are confident do it.If you wan just revise the topics .
- Edited
applejuice27 Hi! It seems like you have a good foundation, so if I were you I'd just do a few nr practice tests a week or so from the exam. There's really no other way to prepare for nr other than exposure to the types of questions anyway. I'd also probably study for sr and science writing since there were no such components in the sehs exam. Good luck!!
nuclei - I'm writing the JMSS exam this year, I got a superior in numerical reasoning in the sehs exam last year and Im pretty confident with the math. Im doing ICAS practice papers for The SR test but I'm not going through any science Textbooks as you said knowledge isn't really needed for the SR as there is a lot of analysis questions. Do you think doing just ICAS past papers is enough for the test with no textbook practice???.
Pls I'm really scared for the exam as I really want to go to JMSS because I genuinely like learning science.
Harshil It'd be better to go through at least the foundation chapters from your science textbook. I'm not too sure about other textbooks, but for Pearson you should be fine as long as you go through chapters 2,4, and 7. If you have time for further preparation, then I'd suggest chapters 3 and 6 as well. If you already feel confident with a specific chapter, then I wouldn't recommend redoing it. Good luck!!
Harshil Hi there are you willing to share icas papers if your willing to ?
Is Anyone willing to share their science notes or paper(PDF) if you're willing to?PLEASE
i do have pierson 8 and 9 textbooks, i think i can go through the year 9 chapters 2,3,4,6,7
@nuclei For the science writing and communication, did they give alot of info on the topic or js give u a paragraph stating the issue and expect u to know a decent amount on the topic?
Harshil assuming you already have some knowledge on the basics, it should be fine. Exposure to the questions is more important I'd say especially since ICAS is really similar. Also, I wouldn't worry much about time management for sr if I were you since you can allocate a minute to each question unlike nr and maths. For nr and maths, to get better at time management I'd suggest eliminating options rather than solving the question.
Someonehehehahahoho they give about a page of information for each writing task. For the essay it's basically just expanding on the information they've given and the prac report is just writing the parts that were left out in the information page.
Harshil are you able to send it if you want you can send it across Discord or Gmail.
Please I need help I want to pass even though there is less time if you can send it it would help me a lot.
Please do not try to force it since it is your documents but please do.
