Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
I'm going into div C, is it really that bad or is the difficulty just way higher?

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
Honestly, it has been easier for me than div B. But that just may be a result of me actually studying for my events this season.dankdecidueye wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 3:59 pm I'm going into div C, is it really that bad or is the difficulty just way higher?

You have to compete with the seniors for the spot
Probably not that bad since 4 of our freshmen made it into varsity

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
I've got a similar question. Is Division C more competitive between teams? Do people work harder for their events?dankdecidueye wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 3:59 pm I'm going into div C, is it really that bad or is the difficulty just way higher?

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
NorCal also cancelled now. Feel free to update the map.
I imagine most that are left will follow Nationals' lead.

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
I think this depends largely on your area. In some cases, div C is much more competitive, but in other cases, div B is more competitive. While can't speak for others, I have been working harder this season in div C than my last season when I was still in div B.Locoholic wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 4:10 pmI've got a similar question.

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
Yes, I would argue that DivC is harder and requires more work. There seems to be more ultra-competitive Div C teams. But it's still fun and workload is (mostly)maneagableLocoholic wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 4:10 pmI've got a similar question. Is Division C more competitive between teams?

Let's move discussion of event replay to the Replaying Events for 2021 topic. I'm seeing similar discussions start across many topics, so I'll be moving over related posts.

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
Once again, it depends on where you are. If you live in a place with heavily competitive C-division, competition is gonna be tough (no duh).dankdecidueye wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 3:59 pm I'm going into div C, is it really that bad or is the difficulty just way higher?
But if you live in a region with mild C-division then it'll be easier for you probably because people don't have time for SciOly nor the want to make any.
In general however, Div C is harder, cause remember when only those 2 kids knew AP Physics II for Thermo in B div? Well now at least a third of the team does.

Re: Covid-19 and Nats/States
My understanding is the national organization recommended this evening that all states cancel any remaining qualifying tournaments (regional and state tournaments). I expect a continued flood of cancellations in light of this.
