Already won your nats bid have you? You can never know how states will go, even the best teams lose their bids. Just compare the teams attending nationals this year so far and last year.

Bring a scooter.

Seriously.

(also if you do build events you don't actually do much at the competition, so you can do more of them.)
Another thing that helps is having experience in similar classes in HS, e.g., ChemLab=AP Chem, Astronomy=AP Physics.

IMO doing Math in Astro is not heavily about physics.. just know how to do astronomy math because there are a lot of relationships and equations. Ap Physics wouldn't hurt, but it also isn't enough or really helpful like Ap Chen might be for chem
