[Mr. Cool]

Next to Crave the Wave, this event has had the most surprises on tests this year. (for me)

I wasn't talking about CTW. Read the title of the thread. I said next to CTW, this event (environmental Chem.) has had the most surprises on tests this year. And CTW, I know the National test was similar, but on other tests (Invats. Regional, State) for me they have had surprises.

Wow, the nationals test had a lot of labs and a lot of questions. My partner and I were really good on the question part, and I think we did really well on that. Although I think we bombed one or two of the labs, we finished the test and came in 6th.

we got a pretty slow start, but we picked up the pace after about 5 minutes. Did anyone understand how to do the porosity part? We sort of guessed

Yeah you had your cheat sheet right and then the test would have nothing that you would review i still got second in regionals though..

The rules were so vague

[chill]

there incorporating that into SCB though

No, if you actually had read it, they took out the part of enviro chem being the topic. The 1st version that they put out in mid April said that it would be the topic, but the revised edition (published 2 weeks ago) which karatekid posted took that piece out. So it looks like there will be no enviro chem at all, but we won't know until rules come out in September.
