Applications are now open!
For the year's powerpoint overview as well as list of additional resources. USE THIS! (There are powerpoints from previous years, specific practice for different parts, etc.)
This is also for an overview of the event. Studying only from the wiki page is insufficient preparation for competition.
Must use/study from these.
