He apologized for the confusion, but an apology doesn't really help much in this case. Therefore, we ended up finishing only around 12 questions of the 23. We took 10 minutes on the written tests. According to other teams such as grover, the supervisor told them and other blocks how much time they got before the test started. oof
Is there any way I can appeal this

It's probably too late now, appeals were supposed to be right after the event.

You probably can't because you should have filled out the appeal form given to you in the team folder if you wanted to appeal.

No you cannot. Usually once awards end that's all you can do for appeals. Also it's only a coach that can appeal not a competitor.

Appeals can only be submitted until awards. NJSO reserves the right to make change final scores until 1 week later.
