I got an email for an interview two days ago. What do i need to do to prepare for it? :)

Normally, you just want to prepare for common interview questions such as:
Why should we enroll you in JMSS?
How do you see yourself in 10 years time?
How can JMSS help you?
Tell us about yourself.
You can look for more examples on other wbebsites or forums.
You'll also being doing group problem solving tasks where they assess how you work as a teamplayer, how you cooperate, how you solve the task as a team. Things like that. Just try and give off the impression that you're intelligent and your passion for science while showing that you can work in a team.

Please feel free to correct or to add anything that I may have included/not included and all the best to everyone who got an interview.

Thankyou so much! and haha that would be cool having people from our schools aha :')
I was just wondering what type of questions did you get asked in your private interview? and I heard you also had to ask a few questions??

Hmm in my private interview, they asked me about my English speaking background, favourite science and favourite scientist, proudest achievement and why do you want to go to JMSS heheh ^_^ Although I may have forgotten a few but those were the main ones :) Hope that helps!
