Re: Scioly.org Monthly Event Challenges: May 2021

Event Feedback For each event, I'll be ranking it based on difficulty (with higher being more difficult), length (with higher being longer), and overall (with higher being better).

Re: Southern California 2021

How did everyone like the test quality at regionals? Circuit lab was too easy imo, but the questions were cool. Codebusters was pretty bad, the length of the text was way too long. Machines test was nice but probably too short. Cybersecurity test was amazing, really fun test with a good spread of t...
