First Year of Science Olympiad
| Regionals | State | Nationals | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fast Facts | 1st | Didn't Attend | Didn't Attend |
| Anatomy | 4th | Didn't Attend | Didn't Attend |
| Road Scholars | Conflict | Didn't Attend | Didn't Attend |
| Team | 5th (115) | Didn't Attend | Didn't Attend |
I started competing in the 2022-23 season. I signed up for a few events, but only ended up competing for Anatomy and Fast Facts. I was placed on the b team (Training team), and only competed at regionals. I didn't try much this year and my results showed.
Extra lore: I didn't really know how scioly worked when I started, and so my school tryout rankings are terrible. I had a lot of motivation in fast facts and I studied a lot prior to regionals and I ended up winning and beating the main team from my school. I'm not sure why I decided to sub into anatomy if i was 10x better in road scholars.
Second Year of Science Olympiad

However, in the 2023-24 season, I studied much harder, and was able to secure a spot on the a team (competition team). I also managed to win more events in tryouts and competed in said events. One major thing was that I really developed my passion for anatomy this year and I was really really really sad about my performance at states and nationals, and while I want to blame it on terrible tests, it can only mean that I just suck :(
nats lore: me and my partner lost motivation to work on ff before nats so we just stopped studying and ended up playing top 20 which I thought was pretty good. Road scholars I barely studied for outside of meetings but me and my partner (Steven Shaw) were locked af. Anatomy was the event I studied the most for but the test was kinda ass and missed like half the rules. Write it do it went as well as it could've gone in my opinion because I barely finished 2/5 of the build when time was up.

WashU lore:
I didn't have any motivation going up to WashU for eco and didn't have any after
Road Scholars: so me and my partner mightve been shouting insults at each other the entire time while taking the test, and the test was hella scuffed, but we managed anyways
Write it Do it: so kevin tang mightve made the test a lil too hard for me and my partner 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Regs 2025 lore:
Disease: so we might've forgotten to use disease detectives knowledge on the test..
Write it Do it: partner drew symbols, we got tiered :/
Nats 2025 lore:
anatomy: me and partner (Ashley Tran) locked in hella hard and shi worked out ig, test was good this year but we missed a few easy questions that could've put us in top 3 since it was a short test
disease: literally didnt touch this event outside of competitions since like november how did we even get top 20 ???
microbe: lost motivation after some drama at states, pretty content with my placement in this event
road scholars: somehow my green wristband verifying im a competitor fell off before event and I had to run around for ~10-15 mins looking for the wristband,
found it and ran back but missed 15 minutes of the test, barely even finished the whole thing, very disappointed in the ranking we reached since I had hopes to place top 3
write it do it: honestly no comments went as well as it could've, test was hard, we didn't finish etc.
