True. Also, it is unlikely that the most competitive SO 11th and 12 graders would be taking ACT this weekend. The best 12 graders were done taking tests in May/June. The competitive Juniors wouldn't bother until spring ( aside for the Oct SAT with is a great practice test for PSAT/National Merit)

The best teams would be missing their math team kids who were at UGA High School Math competition. http://www.math.uga.edu/sites/default/f ... ts2015.pdf FYI - Look at the FSA placement. 10th place overall out of 84 teams, with a team of 1 8th grader and 3 7th graders . Varsity level. Boom.

The state website has been updated, so I now have info about Dodgen invite (here's the letter and registration link), although at this point registration might already have closed; seeing as they cut down to one team per school, it looks to me like they're anticipating a lot of people.

It was one team only last yer too. Only out of state schools automatically got to bring 2 teams. A few in state teams also got a second team, but only after registered teams did not pay by the deadline.

So, Forsyth Central is coming up. Is anyone going? Is anyone besides FSA people going to respond to this? Also, does anyone know how many/which teams are going?

I think it was capped at ~25 like AHS was. Likewise, the schedule is terrible.

So what should I be expecting from the tests? Easy, difficult, following the rules?
