Are there any practice tests anyone knows of? I checked the test exchange, but there aren't any there.

On Part 3, how do we determine which wells are at risk and the time it takes until contamination? Is there a specific formula that we use, or is it just observation?

So in the rules it says we can have one sheet of paper. Does that mean front and back?

The clarification specifically says "one 8.5”x11” sheet of paper that may contain information on both sides in any form from any source."

I'm studying for this event with the MIT opencourseware lecture notes on Groundwater Hydrology, a graduate class.

Would you think the notes are too in-depth for this event? I personally don't understand half of what's on the handouts, and I'm worried that these concepts will be on the test.

Feel free to check the notes out: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/civil-and-en ... ure-notes/

Does anyone know how to test themselves? I've found only one practice test online and it was essentially the bare bones minimum. Also, how specific should the topics of study be? The specs are very broad, and I'm a bit overwhelmed on trying to study what I think I maybe should know...

I'm having the same exact problem right now.

Majority of the study/lab events in Scioly are broad topics-- It's About Time(my fav :) ) encompasses anything regarding to Time as long as it has a question from each of the category, Geologic Mapping with geology, and Astronomy with anything regarding Astro stuff.

To answer your question, Hydrogeology would include anything regarding groundwater(movement of water, terms, etc., remediation, contamination).
