does your school do it too?

EDIT: http://www.presidentschallenge.org/
Haha yeah I did.. The thing is that it's not very prestigious. Like, one of my friends last year got it when he was absent the day of testing.. unless it's not based on physical testing.. correct me if I'm wrong

I think it varies upon schools. We had to run a mile in less then 8 minutes, be able to do about 30 pushups and like 50 situps (you know, where there's a soundtrack of a girl saying "down, up! down,up!"), do a shuttle run in less then, like, 8 seconds, and pass the sit and reach test. It is really hard :P

I'm extremely into sports... I'm good at basketball, fine swimmer, okay at track, watch a lot (Like most every game) of college football but not very good at it and I'm a good ultimate frisbee player.

Yeah, I'll give you that for division C. I hereby claim "the most athletic Science Olympian" for division B. Let the debate begin. :)
