for states i always breifly look over national info in case they put it on states testAlphaTauri wrote:Does anyone else think the PA state test was a tad unfair? I saw questions on national-level diseases (thank god it was matching) which gives an advantage to teams that already know they are probably Nationals-bound and have studied the stuff already, and the stations made it so that for teams that split the systems, one person was frantically working and the other was sitting there trying to help or BSing the questions from the previous station. I guess it really does separate out the good teams from the not-so-great ones.
Also, I got there halfway through the first station 'cause my other event ended late, and unfortunately, the first station was on the muscular system, which my partner knew almost nothing about. I think we left at least half the test blank or wrote down wild guesses.
thank god i did this yr
yeah b/c of stations on person was frantically labeling while the other sat there...
it was a really hard test though
and i did not have time to finish it...
