Nice guide. I'm sure it'll help a lot of people. :)Holy crap didn't see this T_T
One thing to add though about the interview is that you should also elaborate on extra-curricular participation because the school promotes participation in all aspects not just study. Talk about any sport, music or unique extra-curricular activities you participate in and the interviewer might bring up how John Monash can facilitate your interests. They did in my case anyway.
Guys, about the entrance exam - I did nowhere near as well as IndefatigableLover and got in. Don't think you need a superior in every section. I know it's a bit more competitive now, but you still won't need to be that good :PWoah and look at you now Scooby ;)
I'm pretty sure I got a low average in science communication... ::)
Hi
This is very helpful. Thanks for posting. Since you mentioned MHS, Mac Rob select entry tests, am curious as to whether I need to follow the same essay formats as for those exams or since it is science topics, I can choose any format relevant to it. is one topic on issues and other on what you know on science. Pls reply if you have time to.Thanks dude.
Has anybody heard anything about an interview yet? O.o
Has anybody heard anything about an interview yet? O.oLOL I actually didn't see this so sorry for the late reply Codobox but I'll do a bit of 'investigation.'
I'm not sure about others (IndefatigeableLover can confirm) but I got my interview email for JMSS on the 15th of august, and we had our exam one week later than you guys, so theres still 2-3 weeks before you should be getting the email. Make sure to check your inbox and spam as much as often as possible! I had a friend who sat the test, got an interview email but didn't see it because it landed in his junk mail, so his spot was forfeited after a week.Might just point out one thing. Firstly we did the exam not a week but a month and a week before (our exam was in July whilst there's was in June) but yes those are some good points that you mentioned GeniDoi (although my JMSS one wasn't in my junk mail, my MHS one was so do beware).
Why hasn't this thread been stickied?
Hey Everyone,I doubt there was anything on their you don't know, it was just written in an inspirational way :P.
I respect indefatigable lover's reason for deleting this post and really appreciate all the help from PM each other! :D Thanks!! :D
However, it has occurred that everywhere I search, it comes with links to your guide because it is extremely assisting. Haha, I am trying for JMSS this year and I when I saw that it was taken off, I was like.... NOOOOOOOO! :)
Does ANYONE remember anything from the guide? Anything at all? Or anything to rlly help me?
Bullet, Butterscotch and Indefatigable Lover are all brilliant with their advice, it is just always when I look for further help, it links me to this guide! Haha, any help will be appreciated!!
Thanks :D
Hey Guyz, I am trying out for the John Monash Science School Entrance Exam this year. I would like to know what to expect during the exam.
