I don't think anyone from my slightly above-average school would get a medal. There has to be like at least 80 teams in division B.
Maybe you guys are great at an event everyone else does relatively worse in :?: some hope can't hurt, right?
All of our best people graduated last year, but some extra studying might make my team medal in the harder events (e.g. fossils)
Mm, there's no such thing as extra studying,it's all just studying. Study for the events you love :oD

No, extra studying is staying up late for a couple hours studying the night before competition. Normal studying is not staying up late studying the day before the competition.

Plenty of people do that to make sure they know everything and to memorize some extra info

even if you don't do it every night, doing it the night before is pretty normal imo
