Much prefer it.
Did I miss the page with teams and their states?

He had the look of one who had drunk the cup of life and found a dead beetle at the bottom.

Re: Science Olympiad at MIT Invitational 2019
MIT is less than three weeks away! Does anybody have any new predictions?

My predictions aren't too far off from anyone else's, but Acton-Boxborough is looking to be a lot stronger than in previous years, so that will be interesting to see.

Hopefully thermo will be run better this year, since there were many problems last year. I suggest using a bucket heater with a temperature controller rather than a hot plate to heat the water. Also, using preheated syringes to measure the volume of water will greatly improve precision and reduce heat loss. I hope you take my suggestions into consideration!

Note: AB always brings two unstacked teams to its invitationals, so either getting 4th may be a bit high even for my optimistic mind.blueflannel27 wrote:MIT is less than three weeks away! Does anybody have any new predictions?

Re: Science Olympiad at MIT Invitational 2019
I definitely agree. Thermodynamics was horrifically ran last year, especially in some of the earlier time slots. At one point one of the proctors was asking us to predict the temperature of the outside/external beaker. Also the proctors were goofing around and laughing while spilling some of the water they were pouring into our beaker. When we questioned them about it, they simply replied with "eh, close enough" and called up the next team. I am really hoping for a better experience this year.wxyz wrote:Hopefully thermo will be run better this year, since there were many problems last year.
