Bio events probably

For next year, Des Genes and AnatPhys for sure, possibly Disease as well

Quick question for y'all, which event do you people think required less memorization, Designer Genes or Protein Modelling?

I'd say that Protein Modeling had less to memorize than Designer Genes. However, the topics for Protein Modeling were more specific, so the stuff you have to memorize is generally more complex and hard to find. Even though Designer Genes had a lot to memorize, you could find most of the information you need in an AP Bio textbook.

Keep in mind, too, that Protein Modeling has a building aspect to it as well, so even with less to memorize, I still found it more difficult and time consuming than Designer Genes. That's just me, though, and that may very well be different for you depending on how well you handle building vs. learning/memorization events.

The 1st year is fresh water , the 2nd year is estuary/marine.

Do you think there will be any significant rule changes for sound of music compared to previous years?

I’ve heard that they’re going to make it a lot less subjective, so I would expect a significant amount of rule changes.

How are the topic rotations predicted?
I'm referring to A&P, Astro, Chem Lab, Disease and DP for Div. C.
