I thought that Mr. Bailey had to cancel the class because not enough people signed up? I have other classes which I'd rather take, otherwise I might have applied.

I would take it, but it is a year-long class, and you only get one credit for that class, not two for every semester. Not to fear, though, because I will probably be on the team next year.

not enough people signed up for the class so unfortunately I will have to change my schedule but I hope that the people that I listed previously will be on the team next year.

You really should join the team, Kimato. The experience is for the most part enjoyable, with the majority of the competition being Scantron tests over English, Science, History, Art...the whole nine yards. Besides that, there's the Essay Writing and the Speech and Resume, which are pretty ok. It's a really good time where you get to see how unbearably smart Berkmar High School is... We can always use another bright mind like yours!

Though I am in Academic bowl I do not think I would like to be in that class. From what I have seen and heard it really not that enjoyable.

Well.. if you really want to attract new members you might want to tell them what H*ell you do, because from what i have heard and seen it seem more like a work place readyness thing (resumes, selling yourself and stuff like that)

The resumes are only a small part of the competition, Argis. Most of the competitions revolve around scantron test-taking, with the full spectrum of subjects. I think I described the competition a few posts up. Read that, and you'll get a good idea of the work involved. If you study the massive notebook that you get with the team, you shouldn't have a problem with the tests. All in all, it's a pretty ok experience. But I only do it out of respect to Graybeard.;D

First off I do it because of respect for myself because I know most people look at me and are almost astonished by my intelligence level and the fact that I can change my personality depending on who I am hanging out with Secondly because I have respect for graybeard. Oh yeh what the hell we do is have fun without actually having to bust it to learn everything we don't need to know because we have the notebook. ;D
