<p>Hey, I was just wondering if anybody here was involved in the UIL Academic Contest. The state meet is in two weeks!</p>
<p>Yep! My team's going to state for Literary Criticism. I'm excited.</p>
<p>Yeah. I'm going in two events, Spelling(team) and Current Events(individual)</p>
<p>Haha, sweet. </p>
<p>Yeah, I'm going for journalism. We have like, a 2-person team. </p>
<p>Anybody heard of Seven Lakes? :)</p>
<p>I never knew UIL was an academic thing. Cool :p]</p>
<p>We went as an orchestra a couple weeks back.</p>
<p>I did UIL news & editorial writing my sophomore year before I moved OOS. I loved it and barely missed regionals.. I placed 4th in news at district.</p>
<p>I love UIL Journalism! </p>
<p>I advanced to regionals in three events (NOT news, gosh I hate news writing), but I only advanced to state in feature writing (1st). I'm going to get killed at state though...</p>
<p>Heck yes...going to state for science as a team/individual (4th in region, 1st bio, 1st team by about 150 points), current events as an individual (2nd at region). Pretty awesome, UIL's fab :)</p>
<p>How'd everyone do? I got 5th Current Events. 10th spelling.</p>
