Forensics?

[superjenius]

with the glass: it was a definite orange
without it: yellowish orange
but yeah...to directly answer your obvious yes or no question: Yes, I could still see the orange.

You're in B and doing forensics? Could you be looking for science crimebusters?

[ravensrunner14]

nope it's forensics. i'm almost positivie we're division B. and that is one of the events i'm in...

[dudeincolorado]

Ok, while is would know my powders, polymers and such inside and out thats worth about 50% of the event; I would also learn how to write good crime essays seeing that they are worth 25% so if you just do those two thats about 75% of the event write there. The rest is like match a fingerprint and do chromatography which if it come down to it you can wing it.

Division B does not do Forensics, you do Crimebusters, which is very similar but not the same. Unless your region is doing something really weird.

What grade are you in? Are you competing with a middle school team or a high school team?

[ravensrunner14]

ok. i found out that i am in division C. i got confused.
so you said know your polymers and stuff like that?
i'm super nervous..i've never competed like this.
i hope it isn't too hard.
anymore advice?

[detectiveJ]

its okay. basically just know your powders! thats like the most important thing. check the soinc.org website for tips and stuff. are you competing for regionals?
