bro there is 2 weeks left of term, where tf has this year gone
JMSS 2025 Entry
sehs for us too hahah
acedemic_achiver I am not sure about james an as i don't think they reflect the actual exam. You can try hendersons but they are very pricey. they offer report correction and feedback services which is helpful.
Personally i think inherently the tests will attract strong maths cohort and the trick possibly is by standing out in science both in exam and interview.
MMHS lol fr
mnm Okay,thanks I will try out the Henderson's test
acedemic_achiver Dont go JAC. The tests they give you is way harder than the actual test, it didnt help at all. i recomend you buy some practice tests from strive for excellence insted, they reflect the test much better.

acedemic_achiver helloo, i got an offer first round but personally i think you should purchase ICAS for the science test, i didn't attend any tutoring for jmss but i was sent some ICAS tests that i tried out the night before the exam and the format is pretty similar
grr okay thanks I have been getting that alot do u have some that u can share?

acedemic_achiver OH HELLL NOOO, I also attended JAC and It was absolutely useless and a waste of time (in my opinion). I would spend every lesson daydreaming and on TikTok, apart from the writing prompts which you could probably get from chat gpt, the tests they give you are way harder than the actual test. (I was getting below 50% for all my math tests and roughly 50-80% for the science ones. Your better off studying a general Yr 9 science curriculum and getting some edutest practice tests since their really similar. I only started studying 1-2 months before the exam date and cramming the night before. If your doing well in math and science at school there's really no point. Just work on time management.
eee okay thanks 
cshar bro I had my hums test today and it was on economics and I deff failed that
Does anyone know if we need to bring anything to the jmss year 10 course confirmation interview?
