College Discussion's Unofficial USABO 2009 Thread

<p>I put epiphyseal plates. I remember talking to my Bio teacher afterward and he agreed.</p>

<p>Darn. Was sutures one of the answers? I don't even remember now. I just put the one about something fusing together...</p>

<p>Yes I think I put epiphyseal plates as well. What did you guys put for the picture of the plant cell?</p>

<p>vessel element.</p>

<p>i put vessel element too</p>

<p>anybody get the pelvis one? don't quite remember what i put, but if i someone says it i'll know if i got it or not</p>

<p>oh good I put vessel elemnt loads of ppl were saying tracheids, so that struck me as odd...</p>

<p>Also what was the one about if you got injured in the leg or something like that?</p>

<p>Compartment Syndrome, for sure.</p>

<p>^ Yeah, okay not going into semis. I put he had a broken leg LOL I had no idea what was happening...</p>

<p>I dunno, the cutoff may be more lenient this year due to the anatomy..</p>

<p>Hmmm...I really hope so since I made a lot of stupid mistakes though. What are the cut-offs usually around?</p>

<p>29 was the cutoff last year. Around that, usually.</p>

<p>If you look at the vessel element picture, it looks just like it. I thought the joints thingy were sutures... I think i got around a 35-45... but the answer key i have is radioactive.</p>

<p>Wait, is the answer key available?</p>

<p>^If it was, we wouldn't be asking for answers.</p>

<p>Haha, indeed; that was quite stupid of me....</p>

<p>Does anybody know when the teachers will receive the individual scores and the cutoff for semis?</p>

<p>March 2nd at the latest</p>

<p>Did anyone here attend last year's training camp?</p>

<p>In a word, yes.</p>

<p>^ *** never knew there was a training camp?</p>
