USABO 2011 Discussion!

<p>My bio teacher said so. She’s really strict about the rules, so maybe it’s just her interpretation.</p>

<p>I have nothing to give/trade, but a request. </p>

<p>Can you please either share here or PM or email me 3 “essay” questions?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>^essay questions?</p>

<p>aren’t there long response questions? off to the usabo website…</p>

<p>This is a link I found. It has a few open exams and sample questions from a semifinals exam.</p>

<p>can anyone please tell me how to get the results? What should my school’s sponsor do since she is clueless about the process?</p>

<p>ok… so then 3 short response questions… just to get an idea of what we are writing about and not just guessing on :-)</p>

<p>???</p>

<p>^ Sorry I am confusing… what I am asking for is those who have semi-final exams to please share with me (privately or publicly) 3 of the short response questions from a semi-final exam.</p>

<p>^^ i realize that i am just wondering how can I access the results for the usabo since my school sponsor is clueless</p>

<p>I think that the results are only posted to the teacher portion of the USABO website, so I don’t think you can log in to get your test scores.</p>

<p>Hey sMITten,
There’s the 2007 semifinal here: [Bio</a> Club](<a href=“http://www.biologyforlife.com/clubs/bioclub/bio%20club.htm]Bio”>http://www.biologyforlife.com/clubs/bioclub/bio%20club.htm)
However, it apparently has a password. I’ve tried a few brute force programs, but it will take over a year to find the password… if anyone figures out how to open it, please tell me</p>

<p>Get pumped for semis=d</p>

<p>I’m reading an immunology textbook, Raven’s plant book, and a molecular bio book in during my 1 week spring break. Any got other ideas on what books to read?</p>

<p>^ this will be my first time taking semis, but that should be good enough, considering they probably won’t go super in-depth on all those topics.</p>

<p>Does anyone know where I could get my USABO results, the USABO Open Exam cut-off score, and/or the USABO semifinalist list? An exact URL is preferable. If my teacher maybe missed a message about the semifinalists (would they receive notification?), where could I know if I was a semifinalist or not?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>The cutoff is 29, high score is 42 and the student section with scores is not yet up, so your teacher will have to go to the teacher resource center and check results. It will say if you are a semi finalist. The exact URL is: [CEE</a> | USA Biology Olympiad](<a href=“http://www.usabo-trc.org/]CEE”>http://www.usabo-trc.org/) I think your teacher logs in at the top of the page.</p>

<p>How long is the SF exam? 2 hours or 3 ?</p>

<p>2 hours.
