On the Event Guidelines, it says that we need to know "ligament attachments that surround the joint". However, I am not familiar with any type of ligaments that might surround, say, a pivot joint or hinge joint. What ligaments are the Event Guidelines referring to.

I have participated in anatomy for 2 years now, this is my 3rd. But the last 2 yrs I was in division B. And so, I know that competition is going to be tough this year since it's the same topic as last year, but do you guys have any advice on how I can catch up to other Division C participants that did this event last year?
Like sneepity said, there's really no catching up, as long as you've studied pretty well. One trick I use to find tests on Google is by searching "site:edu [insert topic here] exam" In the brackets just type whichever system you want. It should pull up some sites with exams from colleges. Some of the stuff may not be on the rules, and some may not have answers, but regardless, it is an awesome way to study if you need more material!
Thank You guys for the feedback, everyone who responded really helped me out. I just realized that I never typed up a thank you response :shock: Sorry abt that.

I have another question :geek: haha I read a book and it said that scoliosis commonly occurs in the thoracic region and can also occur in the cervical region. I took a practice test today, and the answer key on that test said that the most common area for scoliosis is the lumbar region. So can somebody please tell me which one of the two it is? I looked it up and tried to research it but didn't find a clear and credential resource. SO please let me know if you guys know anything about this. Thank you!!!
The thoracic region appears to be the longest vertebral region, so if I were to guess, I would say thoracic region. I don't think its lumbar because it has the largest vertebrae which make it the sturdiest.

I'm pretty sure that there may be attachments in the wrist which is a pivot joint by ligaments too. As for the hinge joints.. examples of a hinge joint are the knee and elbow. I'm sure there are many ligaments in there, like the medial collateral and anterior cruciate ligaments. When you think of ligaments, which are attachments from a bone to another, you would have to think they'd be at every joint- or else the whole joint would be really flimsy. They're a major part of why joints actually work. I would just say to look at a few diagrams, I don't think that there might be too in depth questions about ligaments. I just know where they are located and what they're made up of, but judging from this year you never know what trivia could be on tests. I hope I helped!! :D

Also for the scoliosis question, I agree with WangWithATang since it's longer, and if something is longer it's easier to bend it in the middle. But I do think that it's more common for scoliosis to happen to both the lumbar and thoracic vertebrae at the same time- when combined they form the longest part of the spine. I don't think there's a super correct answer, the most common type of scoliosis is idiopathic scoliosis and it kinda happens in the lumbar and thoracic vertebrae.

I'm entering Anatomy and Physiology this year, but as the systems rotate, I cannot find any 2021-2022 year tests. Where can I find one?

The topics for the 2021-22 season will be Nervous, Endocrine, and Sense Organs (same as 2017). Although the rules may change slightly, you can find many previous 2017 tests on the test exchange (https://scioly.org/tests/) for practice. As the 2022 season starts, some tournaments will release tests publicly, and SSSS and CSE tests will also be released here on Scioly.org.
