How should I manage my test time? I already know Aristocrats are very important, but is there more? (Division B)

You have 3 teammates, usually what me and my teammates do is we know what ciphers we can do and we split them up and we usually get most of the ciphers completed. Yes time is a stress factor but don't pay attention to the time and focus on the cipher. If it's too hard move onto a different cipher I am certain you still get points if you have the letters in the correct place. It's alright if you leave some cipher's unfinished. Hope this helps!

Look through the test before you start anything but the timed question. Everyone has different questions that they're good at - go after those first. If you're not making progress with one question, drop it and move on - you can come back to it if you have time, but usually if you're not seeing it, you'll spend the next ten minutes stuck in the same loop making no progress.

Make sure to practice a lot with your teammates so you all know what ciphers to solve. If everyone rushes to solve the easier ones, and not the ones they planned to do, then you could lose a lot of time on just trying to figure it out.

hello scioly ppls, idk if i can advertise like this but the service is free and it is scioly related. i made a codebusters website with functionality for a majority of div b and c ciphers, there's also a really cool multiplayer mode with leaderboards, elo ratings, and private/public lobbies. i basically made it to be a fun way to prep for what was my favorite event when i did scioly!
