Idk, I go to JMSS and I don't really know anyone who got like mostly Ds and Cs and got in, but around a B or C average is usually okay? It's mostly about extracurriculars and how well you talk to the interviewer LOL

I am house captain, play for a cricket club, part of the Air Force cadets, played for a soccer club. I also have a couple of academic achievements with proof. Do you think this is enough?? Our school doesn’t have letters to represent grades, it just shows me that I am in the middle of the year 10 level for most subjects.

Does it matter much if I don't have a leadership role in high school or don't play music? I do play sports but only casually not competitive, and I study 2 second languages. I get great grades in school. What are the chances of me getting in?

Very high chance if you do well in the interview. CV doesn't account to much.

Ok so a few questions.
Approximately how long does the curriculum vitae have to be bc one of my friends has one that had 10 pages and mine has 2 and now I'm worrying.
Also does anyone have an idea as to how the online group interview portion will run?
And lastly should or should you not wear the school uniform?\

Thank you!

Mine is like 3 pages so don't worry, idk what ur friend was doing but that's fine too

we're not having a group interview this year; a few of our friends called jmss and they said it would be a hassle to do group over online, so like last year there wont be one; its one on ones but with two different people.

and also yes, we should most likely wear our school uniform,, alg

Just found out the interviews this year is two stages. First stage is a written task during the interview, second one is having a formal interview with a panel of interviews. Y'all got told that your right??

[rely]

Dunno, they never specified it. I'm guessing maybe it'll be reading comprehension alike?? Not sure tho just my guess.
