Same goes for me. I am so glad these events are back. I did shock value 2 years in b division, and I can't wait to start circuit lab!

I think this will be a pretty good year--this event is back really soon, but that just means we're all better at it, eh?
I'm looking to medal at Nats in this...I think I can.

Optics was a pretty nice event, but Circuit Lab will be interesting.

Tried this event two years ago, it was nothing short of a disaster. But now that I actually understand basic science, it's going to be a little easier this year.

Personally, I am excited because Shock Value was my favorite event when I did it, and in the past year I have become even more interested in electricity. However, after trying the first few weeks of 6.002x this past spring, I am also now fairly nervous about the idea of solving problems of that level or even potentially higher within the time constraints of the events.

6.002x? And it's not really too difficult, the wiki has a really nice section below each technical explanation of something the wiki calls 'the other analogy' that's really helpful in understanding basic electronics. Good luck!
