I think it's the fact you mentioned your career as a engineer.
My friends talked about how they wanted to be an engineer as well but you see John Monash mainly focuses on science.
Not only that, most likely John Monash thinks you would join RMIT Uni instead of Monash Uni because RMIT is better for people who are doing engineering.
My friend says he did really well in the interview and exam, but he is almsot certain he won't get a second offer just because he mentioned engineering.
But that's from my point of view so I could be wrong

    LH44 Ig it all really depends, if your someone who wants a career within the field of science "long term" I think the school would be worth it. I found the best group of people and the closest friends I'll ever have who truly are perfect for me but ik my current school environment isn't right for me and my school just sucks academically and in general so ig another 3 year sacrifice of hard work will be worth it if that makes sense.

    Harshil I also didn't receive many questions heavy on science but no matter what they ask you, you should probably elaborate on it further and to sum it up relate it back to science. Like when I got asked abt the science principle I related it to the career I want in the future (science related) but also my overall life...then when I started talking abt my life I incorporated how science is present in it blah blah blah, just yap but make it sound sciency, a bit serious abt your career and probably add in smt to make them cry even if its fake

      eee Adding on to that and to sum it up, don't answer the question just straight up. John Monash isn't looking for just smart people, your meant to think outside the box and prove why you deserve to go to the school. Like in the math exercise you don't really just do the question, you identify patterns etc

      Idk if that made sense but thats just my take on it

      LH44 I personally think you should go to jmss. You will be able to get more opportunities specialised for aerodynamics. Plus my friend said that Macrob only allows Humanities based vce acceleration and not science, while in jmss you might be able to accelerate methods and physics next year.

      But yeah, just my 2 cents on your dilemma

      Hi Guys,
      Who here has got an offer and is coming from south-east Melbourne? If so how are you planning to get to school?

        Idk didn't ask specifically, but she works at Monash Uni.
        Speaking of the vice principal, apparently one of my friends had an interview with him but unfortunetly he didnt pass it.
