Re: Illinois 2013
lol well, they were in a total of 11 events but they partnered up with each other for four of them. Which now that I think of, is worse than having been in different events. My my mrsteven, you really do have your hands full. How many AP courses did you have to take with those 11 events?mrsteven wrote:Psshh 7 events?

Re: Illinois 2013
Yeah, seniors partnering up isn't usually a good idea, unless the event is in its second year of the rotation, and even then it can help to have experience in a similar event even if not the same one.thsom wrote:lol well, they were in a total of 11 events but they partnered up with each other for four of them.

Technically AP courses (of the math/science type at least) help with Scioly, even though of course they're more demanding, so they do lighten up a bit of the study workload for some events... then again mrsteven is primarily a builder

Re: Illinois 2013
Meh, I do nothing in building events, and now I'm not allowed to do them.
I love study events though.

Haha, I know exactly what you mean...or maybe I don't. You must've REALLY slacked off to get to that extreme!Cheesy Pie wrote:Meh, I do nothing in building events, and now I'm not allowed to do them.I love study events though.

Re: Illinois 2013
Ya... I somewhat refuse to have a partner, they never end up studying/being any help at all. So I just do events myself

Re: Illinois 2013
Really, there's only one event that you can't possibly no matter what happens even if you're a super nerd do by yourself...and then there's the rest.

Re: Illinois 2013
...right. The cynic in me wants to see it as an anti-Illinois conspiracy, but accidents happen. We have to get over that.
