2026 JMSS ENTRY GUIDE
Hi, Iβm also trying for jmss 2026 entry, and was wondering if anyone knows the format of the prac report in past years, because at my tutoring place weβre only given a prompt and have to create the experiment and make up the results as well as writing up the other components, whereas Iβve read that they give the results and method?
Hey lols, Have you tried this link: https://www.jaycetutoring.com/posts/jmss-y10
This guy has done the exam before and is really helpful. He is helpful for the writing part. For the report its better if you follow the prompt. If the method and results are provided then all you have to do is write an introduction ( aim + hypothesis) and then the discussion and conclusion, if it tells you to design an experiment then you have to include everything.
Also in the intro its good to add a background for the experiment, which explains what you are doing with scientific concepts.
Hope this helps.
Hey Jayce has an updated guide on this website https://bigbrain.au/blog/jmss-entrance-exam-guide

Hey Miggy, The diagnostic tests cover some basic topics that are going to be on the test, but I'm not very sure about the accuracy of the questions.
By the way, does anyone know whether they ask for or look at NAPLAN Results when looking at your application/CV
my friends sister goes to jmss and shes saying they might look at it
Aayush I dont think they would because naplan is not going to even come out until mid - sep
oh, ok thanks
By the way sorry to all those who already joined the server we've relocated. Here's a new link https://discord.gg/jMwMTXSxuK I've also edited it into the original post
Wait for the prac report, is the method in present or past tense? Iβve had teachers tell me both and Iβm so confused 
lols yeah I 100% understand where you're coming from. At my old school we were taught to write methods in past tense but I'd recommend you should write your method similar to that of instructions e.g. "Transfer the hydrochloric acid solution from the 450ml conical flask to the 200ml measuring cylinder". That's the expectation for VCE and what I'd recommend doing on the entrance exam. Hope that helps clear up any confusion

Hey, I've was wondering, what do you actually need to do to apply for the entrance exams? I've been looking online, even on the actual JMSS website, and I can't find any actual instructions.

hi guys, for anyone who already completed the jmss test, is it worth me memorizing any of the elements of the periodic table for sr, and do you have any tips to get better at analysis and application of science?
