JMSS testing 2015

[chooby]

Guys it clearly says on the JMSS enrolment policy that the applicant will receive advice of the outcome BY 11 September 2015.

doesn't change the fact that it's still so far away ;-;

nah, I think time will fly by until the day arrives! I remeber thinking that waiting to get an email for an interview would take forever, it wasn't to bad aha

Generally around 3rd September is a good date for the outcome for JMSS intake but generally it'll be earlier than a week before 11 September since the last week is mainly to offer places for people during the second round (that is people who decline offers).

Off-topic

This is going to sound pretty weird but this is more of a "heads up" in that I'll be selling my uniform at the end of the year so if any of you happen to get into JMSS then you can get your uniform off me later on xD (primarily blazer since that's pretty expensive to buy in the first place)!

How will JMSS apply the 3% rule if a school have two campuses?

At least I've got things like the school production and Casey Challenge to keep me busy during the wait. What are you guys doing during the wait? (Just curious seeing all we can do now is talk and wait)

I'm guessing all two/three campuses will be counted as one school - so the 3% rule will apply on the campuses as a whole, since it's the same school... I'm guessing I suggest you just chill and stop pondering... the more you think about it, the more you'll be stressed

ok well
you get paired with groups of 4-5 maybe 6 idk
theres a fun ice breaker activity at the start (you dont get marked for this), then comes the two group activities (to assess how well you work in a group, communication skills, etc), maths/problem solving question (i think they want to see your thought process so try to write as much as you can even if you dont know the answer) and then comes the individual interview (just try show them your passion for science and why you want to come to the schooL) yeah thats pretty much it.
hope i helped

Oh, I meant I wonder how they'll actually do it because everyone's already done their interview, but thanks for the info anyway!!
