Oh yay, finally. Change. This says that all of the other teams have a chance now. :) Congratulations!
P.S. I'm rooting for a former Franklin student that has started his own team in another state and made nationals in 2 years, he's the one that took 1st in Anatomy and Physio two years ago at states when Mira Loma took 1st at nationals...

I can not believe it.
I got 6th in both Shock Value and Meteorology.
I was so close!
However I got 5th in Heredity.

Did anyone else think that the dynamic planet test for Division C was tough?

Oh, god, yes. I started panicking about the MC test and didn't pay much attention to the stations, so when we were given ~20 minutes at the end to work on the MC I was like :x . The questions were good and most of the diagrams were do-able and not blurry. I managed to place 5th :) How did you do/think you did? If you want we can discuss it in PM :mrgreen:

Same here! I had my partner do the stations and I did the MC test. It was so nerve racking, we definitely need more than 5 min per station and I did pretty poorly. I was thrown into this event the week prior so I did the best I could! And 5th place? That's amazing! My partner and I envied the people who placed in that event haha

Where is the 2014 State competition? I hated Tulare. Plus it was a 4 hour drive.
Hopefully it is near Sacramento.

Why did you hate Tulare beside the long drive? The campus was actually really nice. Everything were located near the same place.
