Re: Senior Reflections 2022

Science Olympiad has been my favorite activity ever since I began competing in 5th grade. In middle school, I would spend class researching how to improve my builds, and I would excitedly come home ready to put my ideas into fruition. Competitions were by far my favorite days of the year, as I loved...

A real good score is probably like a 42/45 but that's pretty hard to pull off especially when timing in this event depends slightly on human error.

I don't believe they'll be announced until the rules actually come out. They're sometimes easy to predict though, so if you want some insight, maybe ask the threads for the events.

Re: Advice

There's so many other things you can do for college besides scioly so just quit if you hate it. If you want some ideas just pm me.
Also keep in mind this isn't a normal year. In person comps are so much more enjoyable, but if you truly hate scioly, again just quit.

Sounds: 10/10 I'm not that qualified to talk about sounds since I'm bad at it, but it seemed like the best sounds test I took all year. Wide variety of ...

Re: Helicopters B/C [Possible mini SO, Satellite SO Replacement]

How do people go about building their own prop jigs? I can 3-D print, so I'd probably just do that, but has anyone here experimented with other methods?
