Sorry Team 93First-
You may not LIKE what I said but it WAS thought out and makes perfect sense. I TEACH AP classes and I KNOW that the testing dates are close at hand.
The needs of a relatively small percentage of students will have little effect on a million dollar project like the Nationals. Remember, this is the same organization which, on the day before registration last year, cut out 50% of the teams in a single proclamation. I am sure they are confident that even if the test takers don't attend they will still have a big enough crowd to make the Nationals a major event.
From the information we have received here in NJ from some pretty reliable sources the date will be May 3rd and the place will be Houston. If I'm wrong you have my permission to say "I told you so".
Rather than be ticked that you don't like what I've said, be ticked at FIRST for stringing this out so long. They certainly know of a date and place and the last I heard it was to be announced this past Friday. Was it?
BTW- if the date IS May 3rd and there is a way, I am willing to volunteer some of my time to help you guys review for the AP Bio and AP Envi Sci exams. We'll set this up when the time comes.
