SciolyDex - A Fresh, New, Professional Test Trading Firm

[SciOlyDex]

Hey Everybody!

Today, we would like to unveil the newest collaboration of the Science Olympiad Community - SciolyDex

What is SciolyDex?

SciolyDex is a professional, efficient trading firm with collaborations from test hoarders, makers, and dedicated Science Olympiad members. What we do is compile tests, and trade out hard to get tests that you wouldn't be able to get elsewhere! This is a organization made to help give back to the community by equipping them with tests, resources, and anything else you would need! Our bank includes endless amounts of notes, tests, pictures, and much much more! Our ultimate goal is to give back to the community and make some of the best resources more widely available. (We also want to "collect them all", hence SciolyDEX, a play off PokeDex )

Who's in SciolyDex?

SciolyDex, being the professional organization it is, has some of the most experienced and best traders in it. Some of which have been trading for years. We can assure you that whenever you trade with us, you will be getting a fair deal. Most of them are National Competitors too! Currently, there are four of the limited allowed firm member spots filled.

Why SciolyDex?

SciolyDex was formed by the Scioly Discord trading community and has, by far, the biggest and most extensive test bank known. The members of SciolyDex have high esteems in the current trading community and have everything that you would ever need! Unlike the normal discord server, this is a one-stop service which will get back to you fast! The chance of scamming is reduced to zero, and you'll be able to trade for HUNDREDS of tests! These tests include some of those written by nationally acclaimed Event Supervisors (some event running events at the 2018 Tournament) and the rarest! We have tests such as MIT 2018, GGSO, Nationals B/C for 2007-2018, and much much more! We have resources and notes from national medalers and competitors, some even the champions of their events!

How can I get involved?

SciolyDex is accepting applications for members, but will be very strict and limiting to who will be allowed in the organization as we have LIMITED SPOTS for the team. However, anybody can trade with SciolyDexers in the discord server here: https://discord.gg/uz5HCDN. (The difference between joining SciolyDex and trading in the server is that if you join SciolyDex, you become one of the firm administrators and trade tests FOR the firm.) Anybody can become a SciolyDex community member, but becoming a firm member is a completely different story.

Conclusion

We welcome EVERYBODY to the SciolyDex server! Traders, hoarders, and basically anybody serious about Science Olympiad can be and will be let in. We're hiring for new members of the team, and will be ready to trade 24/7!

Come, join us today!

The effort to make and organize all of this could have been used to do so many other things...

Isn't that the symbol for the United Nations?

The funny part is that he posted it after the "TWO MEMBERS" were already chosen lol

A majority of ESes when looking for inspiration for how to write tests will look at the most easily available ones (ergo Test Exchange, public things like PUSO, UT Austin, idr all of them). Doesn't that mean that the best practice tests to take are the most widely available ones, not the rarest ones?

But you get to a point where you know all the information in available tests, and you could learn some more obscure facts that could potentially make a difference. Additionally, practice tests (especially in certain events like Fermi) are the best ways to study, and the more the better

No, this is the United Nations symbol.

The best tests to take for easier, minor invites would of course be that. However, for more advanced competitions such as regionals or states, the ES'es know what their doing and make tests not according to widely available tests. Nationals is written by experts in those fields, and I'm certain (as I've attended nationals) that widely available tests do not help as much.

I can, however, say that tests are the best way to prepare and study for competitions. Having harder tests and rarer ones introduces you to new concepts that lets you dive into the more complicated topics.
