Well doesn't every Study Event seem like a rather straightforward event, until you get the curveball test that blows you out of the water.

The event always depends on the Event Supervisor and how diligently they follow the rules.

I agree, but this event can REALLY go in depth with the material. If you know what I mean.

I had a really weird state test that I thought I was prepared for. I got 5th. I relied mostly on the studying prior to states for the national competition and I got 13th. So... not that straightforward.

I know exactly wat u mean...and ya, anatomy definitely gets really in depth, i checked out a practice test my friend on the team was doing...having taken a community college course in anatomy, it still took me a while to figure it all out.

It is a real mistake to assume that an event wont go very in-depth. Even if it does, preparation never hurts.

Do you guys know if we need to features on bone surfaces?

Btw, looks like respiratory and muscular and endocrine for next year.

Does anyone know any sites with labeling activities for muscles?

After reading thru previous pages on this thread it looks like you should know the bone surface features.

Beware: it doesn't follow the muscle list on SOinc.

I would recommend making diagrams of the muscles for your cheat sheet. Muscles are actually pretty tough to identify. There were several muscles to ID on the nats test and I don't think I could have done a lot of it without my diagrams. They are worth the space on the sheet.

You definitely should. However, I don't think it's in the rules. but DEFINITELY, definitely learn them. why are you asking? skeletal isn't one of the systems for next year.

And just respiratory and muscular for B division.

Do put all the muscles on a sheet. You never know how complicated the diagram will be when given to you.
