NYSF is definitely a more industry based experience, you won't be doing all that much science, aside from a couple experiments here and there.
vce: english, methods, spesh, chemistry, physics, geography.

which is kind of the same deal with Maths

I beg to differ, from what I heard NYSF kids had parties while we did maths (the tough stuff too!)
Umm....we had parties. Two parties, one of which was an all-nighter.
I won the GAT: 49/50/50.

NMSS parties aren't really "parties" either - more like extended periods of shirt signing and card games.  Speaking as someone who met their ex-girlfriend at NMSS.  :p

Hey guys, so recently I was notified that my NYSF application has gone through and that I have to attend an interview with my local rotary club (not district level)... and since you guys have been to NYSF, I was wondering how I should prepare for the interview, what kind of questions they ask and all the other details.

Thank you so much!
