Re: Way Too Early Predictions
I think NCSSM is a tad high, as well as Tesla. I'd put TJ at 7 and bump everything down. I'd also put Mountain View in 3rd and WWPN in second. I think Troy is better than 7L. Troy MI is also a bit high, and I think you may be sleeping on Grand Haven for the second MI bid. We'll see how UMSO plays o...

Re: Way Too Early Predictions
Haven't been paying too much attention to Carmel since CMU - have they really been doing well enough to place T10 nationally? I'd probably put them somewhere around where Tesla STEM is now, but I might be working off of limited information.

Re: How did you first learn of, start doing, and keep doing SciOly?
I first heard about SciOly as a seventh grader, I think, through some channel or another; my middle school only had (has?) two academic competitive teams (MathCounts and SciOly), so it was a bit inevitable that I'd hear of it at some point, and while I was more of a math nerd back then, I figured I ...

Re: Virginia 2021
VASO has finally decided on a date for states: it'll be on March 13th , fully virtual, running more or less the same events with a few differences. Experiment and Data Analysis will be run instead of regular ED. Helicopters will be a trial event (it is being run as an optional event at regionals; th...

Re: 2020-21 Science Olympiad Midseason Poll
Interesting how the only Virginia schools to get votes were TJ and Fairfax... IMO Langley and Lake Braddock are stronger than Fairfax (which has been slipping since 2019, if my memory serves me right), so seeing those two absent but Fairfax as an honorable mention was a bit of a surprise to me. I su...
