GG: max 56, mean 39, min 24
Hydro: max 50, mean 38, min 13

Note to all: I generally don't know the max possible in any of the events, unless it's explicitly stated in the rules, which you all can easily look up.

Hi Chalker,

Could you tell me the top 6 scores for Invasive Species Division C? If not, could you say the difference in points between 1st and 6th? I want to see how close the top six scores were.

Thanks!

Thanks, Chalker! Also, do you have the 6th place score for Hydrogeology?

"Chalker could you tell me the difference between my first in Dynamic and 0th place" - When I see all those score requests.

Idk about 1st and 6th, but you were 10pts above us (LASA - 5th place). Huge congrats on your first. We were so happy for you.

And that's why we have "chalker, can I?"...I made a post, it didn't stop anyone, chalker seems okay with it, so people will do what they do.

If I recall I saw a blade with a ton of blades, and it got over 600 mv

Okay, that got me curious about the difference between 25th and 10th in hydro.

Oh and the difference between 12th and 6th in It's about Time if you could please.

Four points for a 15 place difference makes me so happy considering I didn't fail as bad as I thought I did.

9 and 2 points would have gotten you a medal in both cases.

Not asking a question here or reviewing a test, but OHMIGOSH 2 points for 12 to 6? I guess the scores are only out of 100, but that's INSANELY close.

Back to the original topic,

Invasive Species (7): The test was pretty hard (especially the "best method of control" station), but the factor that really cut down the scores was the time limit. 2 minutes at each station for 5-7 questions means about 17-24 seconds for each question. It was pretty cool, however, that they had specimens! I had only seen a few live invasive species in MO (Japanese Honeysuckle is spreading like crazy), and this was my first time seeing other Invasive Species! To sum it up, the test's real constraint was time. (Maybe next year I'll place... )

Reach for the Stars (38): The test had 120sh questions and exceeded way beyond my limit.Before you say, I didn't prepare, I came prepared -- it's that I spent too long on the constellations part and too little on the DSOs/Stellar Evolution part. We answered about 40 constellation questions in 40 minutes, while in the remaining 10 minutes we answered 40 DSOs/Stellar Evolution questions. It was quite a hard test..
