Hi all, a bit late but the exam materials from the 2020 UT Regional can be found here! Hope everyone is well and staying safe during the pandemic.

Thanks so much! By the way, I believe the Circuit Lab exam materials are not in the folder.

Great catch - thanks for letting me know. The exam materials for Circuit Lab should be up now too.

Thank you so much!

I also am not sure if there was supposed to be a Food Science test, but was there?

There definitely should be - I'll look into it and ask the event supervisor about it. Sorry for such a late response! COVID really messed up my entire sense of time.

Hi everyone,

ATX Science Olympiad is excited to announce that our 2020-2021 member application is NOW OPEN! We are looking for incoming UT students who are passionate about improving the Science Olympiad experience and engaging in meaningful STEM outreach to join our team. More information can be found on our application [link: tinyurl.com/atxscioly20], including the positions we are actively recruiting for. Applications will be evaluated on a rolling basis, so we will naturally tend to give preference to those who apply sooner.

In addition to our annual invitational and regional tournaments, we manage multiple outreach initiatives, from mentoring students at local Title I schools to hosting our annual Coaches’ Clinic. Many of our members forge deep connections throughout the Science Olympiad community, designing trial events, supervising at tournaments across the country, and even helping write the rules!

If you have any questions, our team would be more than happy to answer them - just shoot us an email at atxscioly@gmail.com. Whether you’re an experienced Science Olympiad veteran or simply someone who loves STEM, we’d love to have you join our team!

Love,
Adi

ATX Science Olympiad recently released this survey to make sure the 2020 UT Invitational serves the needs of the Science Olympiad community as best as possible. Although I'm posting it in the thread for Texas, our competition attracts teams of all kinds from all over the country, and as a result, we'd love to hear from everyone, whether your team has competed at UT before or not. Your feedback will go a long way towards helping us make sure that the 2020 UT Invitational (and all of our other events!) are the best they can be. To top it off, we are also conducting a raffle for people who fill out the form and intend to randomly award $10 Starbucks e-gift certificates to two respondents!

Hi all, we're excited to announce that our third Coaches' Clinic will take place on September 26th from 8:00 AM 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM! This year’s clinic will be hosted completely online as a series of interactive video seminars. Topics covered will range from running a Science Olympiad team and procuring resources to in-depth event specific master classes and general event overviews. Our presenters have thousands of hours of collective Science Olympiad experience as former competitors, state/national medalists, event supervisors, and national test writers.

If you’re at all interested, please sign up for the Coaches Clinic here! Coaches, parents, and students are all welcome. This event will be free of charge and we hope we’ll be able to pass on all of our experience and love for Science Olympiad to everyone in the community. See you there!
