Any terms that are five-letters? It's a little unusual, but now that you know it you can prepare for it.Tailsfan101 wrote:Also, we had a very general category called "5-Letter Science Terms". What do test administrators expect for this?Tailsfan101 wrote:So at my state tournament, we had simple categories such as insects, mammals, and dinosaurs. Does anybody know if the category difficulty will increase,and if so, by how much?

Re: Fast Facts B
It's impossible to predict what kinds of categories any ES will use. In theory, they should get harder at each level but not so much so that the test is impossible (because the Nationals ES needs to separate scores between, what, sixty teams?). All things considered, those categories are pretty bad.
