John Monash Science School (JMSS)

Students can prepare for their year 9 Edutest entry exams online with the John Monash Science School Course.

The syllabus below outlines a comprehensive and structured resource that has been developed specifically to allow students to access exam preparation online and with convenience. Using the online courses, students have the opportunity to become familiar with the types of questions that will be present in their upcoming exams, develop logical thinking and build exam confidence.

Feedback is provided in several forms. Answers include explanations and working out is provided for incorrect answers. Additionally, students receive reward badges for participation, improvement and accuracy. Student results can be published to leader boards based on improvement or accuracy.

This course will expire in 12 months and contains 35 practice tests. The course includes questions and tests to assist students to reach their educational goals. The learning tools provide opportunities for students to test themselves, review and improve, work within time limits where applicable and grade their performance. The course is accessible on all computer and mobile devices.

Tutoring at Burwood East is also available for the JMSS entry exam. Information about the Brainworks JMSS exam preparation is here.
