    Chakraboi thats tt6, no? tt8 is for selective (yr 8 students wanting to be in a sehs in yr 9) or can younger kids also join

      MMHS I did TT6 at the normal time to prepare for an accelerated program at my local high school. After finishing, I did Level 7 but only stayed for six months. Then I started TT8 midway through Year 6 and finished it a year early, midway through Year 7.

      The content was pretty easy, and I noticed they reused their material with small changes, like in their weekly tests and maybe the simulation ones too. Overall, it was alright i guess, but not too challenging

      MMHS I dont think ur allowed if ur in yr 6 my dad persisted telling them i can do their stuff. (most kids were dumb as and made it 😲🤯)

        Chakraboi don't think most kids were 'dumb as' but ok. Ig the content was hard for me at first especially since i started like 3/5ths or 1/2 of the way through the yearly program. But at the time of simulation i was pretty much getting 80% and higher. However, don't rely on james an to be 100% accurate, they are not but so are all other tutoring centers. I think james an just prepares students for the worst, and has them have to do content that is unnecessary, the real test was probably a bit harder than james an tests. But anyways, you still have a while to go till the test, so don't get complacent, brush up on your skills, its good you have completed tt8 but remember, you are competing against around 3500 other people, excluding girls (for mhs). around 310 or smth get in mhs, and 1300+ put mhs first. I mean your chances are good but also you never know. I am attending mhs this year (if thats the school ur aiming for). Remember to also dedicate time to activities other than studying. Sports, music and recreational things are great for you too. Also, one more thing. People at my james an center kept bragging about getting 90+% on every test, but they didn't get a spot in sehs. This was just something common i picked up lol

          MMHS alr bettt thanks. Just gotta establish and touch up some of my weak areas and i think i should go alright at least.

            Chakraboi yes, and also, keep a strong, positive attitude, this helps a lot. If you look back at the forums made in 2024 for last years year 8 students (including me), we were practically all doubting ourselves big time.

              MMHS i doubted i would get in also, js keep a positive attitude and check your emails for selection process updates unlike me, smh

              so in essence, believe in urself, keep some confidence, dont feel overconfident but dont doubt urself 👍

              I strongly agree because back in year 6 I was extremely confident and because of that I had failed many exams including an accelerator program at my high school, as I didn't even study for it or cared.
              I was very sad because many of my friends have gotten into accelerator programs at their high school but then I had finally realized that to succeed in life you must study and work for it which was then I made a promise to myself that I would work hard for everything no matter what it was.
              Also I strongly recommend you watch Arnav Kadian's selective school journey which definitely motivated me to do better as he was really inspirational to me.
