Hey!

Thanks very much, this is super helpful!!
When you applied and sat the exam how many people also tried? Also, did you have to attend an interview?

Well on the website it says that they accept 100 students but seeing that the school is new and not many people know about its existance, they are accepting only 60-75 people; that is depending on the ammount of people that apply. This year 125 people applied and 75 got in.
Once you pass the written exam, there is an interview. It's 10 to 15 minutes - atleast thats what my email said - but mine was almost 7 to 8 minutes.

Yeah, it's been advertised a lot more now so I think next year there may be more competition.

Also, does anyone know when applications open?
