    So i am hoping to do ty next year I was wondering this.

    What type of people do they look for like I'm a very positive student and rarely get in trouble or bad notes . I have won student of the month twice and an award at Christmas for school spirt . But I'm not that great in exams like I'm at ol at three subjects and fail hl exams sometimes.

    Also what type of question do the ask you in your interview.

    Most of the people from my jc went into TY, everyone who applied for ty was given an interview and had to write 1-2 pages on why they want to do TY.

    You WILL get in, there is lots and lots of people doing TY that do most OL subjects, have bad grades, are known for messing around a lot, not doing hw etc.

    As you may have figured out, most people dont tell the truth, or atleast all of it during the interview or short essay for why you want to do TY, as long as you say you feel you want to be more mature leaving school and want to be more prepared for your LC they will accept you.

    TY might be a good choice for you, it makes you more prepared for 5th year which could help you slightly with your grades, don't expect it to be a lot though, TY is a joke.
