Did anyone here go to TMSCA State (HS)? My lazy UIL sponsor refused to join TMSCA or help me field a team and I would like to hear any and all of the placing scores or placers in any division (especially 10th grade, 4A). Also, I heard rumors that TMSCA was planning to unveil their comp sci test to the acne encrusted masses last saturday... Does anyone have any info on this, or for that matter, the competition in general? How many people were there? Were there any godlike number sense/science/math/cs scorers? And where exactly was the event held? The texasmath site has been horribly unreliable, so I turn to my superior friends at Math-Magic. Did any of you place?
(One last completely unrelated question: Who makes the Texas Best tests for bio and comp sci? I cant find the source anywhere but they must exist because I am ranked 2nd in my comp sci division, or at least I think i am..)
Hey, what's up guys. I went to the TMSCA State meet last week. It's held in San Antonio. UT at SA i think. I'm usually pretty good at #sense, average mabey 150 (good 4 me), but i sucked it up big time at state. My face got all hot and i was just worrying about bombing it.. and bomb it i did. i got about half of my lowest score of the year. I don't want to say my actual score out of embarassment. I did ok in the calculator, bad in math, but i didn't place top 10 in anything(11th i think, im in 2A). This one guy, Kevin Burnett, from Argyle, go 1st place in my grade in everything. Pretty freakin smart guy.

yeah... go here... http://www.texasmath.org/ and go to the results page. The scores seem markedly lower, and Goldsmith was beaten in multiple areas... very strange.
