I feel bad for you. You can't really study for this event, and that is probably the most boring way to study it.

It's really hard to do Sci Oly if you can't stand the coach. Luckily my coach is nice. Another bonus is that he's Canadian! :lol:

OMC!! Having a Canadian coach is soo cool. I just thank gwd that she's not my coach in my events shes just the assistant coach. She used to be our teacher but she retired and now Scioly is the ONLY thing she thinks about.

I agree there's really not much you can study. But I like the event because of the athletic stuff cuz Scioly takes up most of my time that tennis doesn't so now I can kinda incorporate both!

I dislike this event. I mean, how do we know how difficult these questions will be? Also, from what I've heard, the difficulty of the physical challenges vary greatly. The whole idea of a physical challenge is just stupid. I mean, what does that have to do with science? Though it'll probably be a fun event to compete in. :D
