Hey I am from NC too. I will probably see you at the state tournament. How much have you studied? I really want to place 1st. Are you moving up as a team or individula, I did Anatomy too. I got third though. I really didn't study for SO that much. I was busy with the spelling bee and mathcounts that week. What is your name?

What would be useful information to add in your cheat sheet if you are going to the state tournament ?
What did you guys add?
there is a ton of vocab word in the introduction to epidemiology glossary. Should I memorize all of it...or just understanding it is fine? I want to place in states.

try to learn the main vocab words, the rest you can remember next time To the cheat sheet you should add ratios and other calculations. also include the Bradford-Hill criteria it was useful on the delaware test . my team fared pretty good: 13th place in Delware. We didn't study much , but the cheat sheet helped a lot

What else should I study for the state tournament. I really want to get 1st place. I will defnitely do what I recommended(Duh), but what else should I study. Any main diseases? What kind of diseases were there on your state tests(for the people who already had them)? I am an FPOW, so technically, if I got first place, in my mind, I qualified for antionals. What other major topics should I study? Does anyone have any past tests?

not much, other than the simple ones: epidemiology, host, epi curve, etc..... vocabulary isnt a big part of the test
