It happens. I studied from a college microbiology book and took sixth in MM. XD But I'm not upset (anymore, at least) because I know I went in knowing more than anyone else did. I just screwed up serial dilutions.

!?

They didn't really have you do serial dilutions did they?!?!!? That seems... silly and trivial... I understand that it relates to micro but still... i've never been asked anything like that...

Haha, LASA>... :) yup... So you go to green hill?? St. James Academy does as well don't they (something like that)
and EVERY year y'all win the trophy for "GOING THE DISTANCE" :roll: lol....
You do fly right?? I LIVE in Texas and for us thats like a nine ish hour drive... Green hill is really a fun competition, usually the second for Texas and a great way to start the year off. :D :D you guys going next year??? It would be fun to go out of state for an invite :)
sorry this is a little off topic :)

Yeah we got second behind LASA this past season... and

Obviously the chances are slim of you actually getting to go but you never know!! :D
Don't worry, his spastic coach is already looking up transportation options. lol Now the question is will our board of education approve a trip that far away.
I wish we would do another 10 hour invitational trip... but I doubt my coach would...

Which book?? if you don't mind posting it that is... i understand if you dont :) I'm on our MM team for state... and serial dilutions? How many?? like it was said earlier, thats related, but not a huge part.
we took a MM test the other day that was ALLL DNA and Genetics. that was interesting and fun! :)
I don't know if I said this earlier (and im too lazy to look) , but i wish our team traveled out of state for a comp. other than nats, that would be fun :)
No matter what the experiment's result, there will always be someone eager to:(a) misinterpret it(b) fake it, or (c) believe it supports his own pet theory.

I can post it on the MM thread.

You should totally come to my school's invitational or something. I wonder if we'll have it in January or February next year.

Aargh, Fogg, I don't want it to be Friday.
