Re: Anatomy B/C
so, if one had twelve consecutive hours to study for the event, how would they go about it? (we love when one of our members informs us she'll be taking sats the day of states and the only person with a free slot is an AP chem student, aka me)

Re: Forensics C
NY forensics test required knowledge of Sherlock Holmes. I feel so stupid for never reading that... Really? I did the NY Forensics test (got fifth, actually), and I somehow completely missed any reference to Sherlock Holmes... I mean, I guess I was holed up with the powders for two-thirds of the ...

Re: Science Olympiad Quotes
Yesterday we were at states and there was a team waiting outside a building. As we walked by, someone threw open a window on the third floor and yelled down to his team, "DO WE NEED TO IMPOUND CALCULATORS?" it was hilarious at the time....only in scioly.

My line of thinking is that the clue was pointing to pennsylvannia ...

Re: Sounds of Music C
I used plywood this year, which probably explains everything. There's a lot of bracing on the inside so it collapsing was never a problem, and I have banged this thing around with no adverse effects. Only problem is that its shape--two hexagons on top of each other--is giving me buzzing and wolf ...
