The majority of these recent questions would fit better in an event thread than a thread about preparation. Please try to stay on topic.

My plan: ID the rocks, ID the insects in Water Quality, build a salinometer and learn some basic estuarine ecology. Not much, but just enough to get my foot into the door.
Wow quiz, I wish myself and my teammates were as dedicated as you.

I'm moving up to C division next year, so I'll only be doing tentative studying for Forestry.
ornithology, forestry, entomology, triple E, green generation, water quality, dynamic planet (lakes & rivers), awesome aquifers, meteorology, robot arm, write it do it. :)

I generally use the summer to rest, not do SO. That's what the school year is for.

Summer is for things you don't have time for during school, like SO. School year is for school. Relaxation is not necessary.
