I guess by utilizing this idea, Scioly Forums can be a tutorial site for Science Olympiad.

for wright stuff can you add a ceiling height category? without that, scores mean nothing (which may be the reason that there are no posts in div B)

Oh ok. That 's what I thought, but I forgot the older posts. I like things the way they are. If you want a quiz, just go to the test exchange.
Edit: Plus, most scores in the Score Board are building events, and those don't have tests.

A Gelinas kid posted his NY states Compute This test score of of his personal calculation and what he thought he got right

If he's wrong he's wrong... the thing is it doesn't necessarily have to be a score. Even if that event wasn't out of 100, it was a rough percentage, and a good guess as that, as he is reliable and wouldn't put anything up if he wasn't sure (I know him really well, he's my best friend, and he wouldn't put that up if he wasn't at least 90% sure)

The test scores are useless as it is since tests aren't comparable...I don't think rough estimates will make it any worse or do any damage at all. People can completely lie about the scores their getting in events that they actually got scores in without you knowing anyways, and most of the building event scores are probably made from estimates of times and distances than official scores given my supervisors. So what's the damage in doing the same in a study event?
