Dosanjh (NHS) why only preference mhs?? If you put nossal you could have gone, its better than nothing

    nossal high is popular cuz its in the middle (i think) of the other 3 schools, its not that far from anywhere tbh

      nah its not in the middle, its east of melbourne, mhs and macrob are in close proximity with the city, and suzanne cory if to the west of melbourne. So mhs and macrob are the ones sandwiched.

      MMHS No I haven't taken the test yet, I'm doing it next year but I also told him Nossal is also a great school and it isn't that far even though MHS are closer.

      asianasen No Nossal is in the east and MHS and Mac. Rob are in the middle and Suzanne is stranded in the middle of Werribee.

      a📀 thats a good point

      a📀 That is true but here in Australia, Hinduism is the fastest growing religion meaning there are even more Indians who keep coming to Australia which is another reason why.
      Also coming from an authentic Indian person, our parents always push us in our studies to become a topper and overall get a good job in life like Doctor and Lawyer

      chxin So I basically will do tuition but you know it's the holidays so I replicate the exam by creating my own answer sheets and doing the exam test papers as well as studying the content of the exam by using online resources.

      chxin i went to james an on friday afternoons, but for the days prior to that and the days after friday that week, i would keep reviewing my mistakes on my james an tests, do like 3-5 practice tests a day, and keep trying to get better at the things i was worse at (mostly some math parts). I didn't focus tooo heavily on english components because I was pretty confident on them, but for the last like 2 weeks i did a few writing practice tests, and a few vr and rc tests. I studied for sehs each day, probably around 2-3 hours a day, but i also had to keep up with my normal school work which wasn't too hard. Overall, the key is to be consistent and positive. From the time school starts this year for you, and to any other year 8's going for sehs, you must go full out. The test day is around 5 months away, a long time to practice

      if i get 70 on eng and 60 on math currently what should i practice to get better at both

        chxin in all honestly, don't worry about your james an scores just yet, once you get to maybe april or mid april i'd say, then take scores more into account. From mid april onward to mid june (test day) you need to focus on your weaknesses and try to be scoring superior for maybe 2-3/4 of your james an tests. I only started scoring 3 sups for my tests around simulation time. But, in saying that, you can get a head start. Remember, don't stress, it can be a good sign, but also it can bring your confidence levels down. Stay calm in every test, and on the day of the test you must stay calm. Also, here is my new email: yel0002@mhs.vic.edu.au. Anyone else who needs help can also email me here or just ask me through this forum or any other ones. Your scores seem solid atm👍

          Don't worry most people who achieve average in mock exams actually do really well in the exam and it's true.

          • MMHS replied to this.

            i got lower scores on the james an mock, did like 2x better on the real exam

            Dosanjh (NHS) wish u all the best, ask anyone for help with questions you may be struggling with, or about mhs life, i could tell u about it this year

            bro im thinking about making a youtube video kinda like arnav kadian on my first day. Maybe i won't, arnav does it best lol

              MMHS do it it'd be pretty cool and like a memento for like when ur older (:

                MMHS Yeah I agree you should definitely do it!
