Was anyone else enraged by the horrendously egregious difficulty of this test? That programming section was ridiculous. More than ten teams across the state got 12/12 problems in 5A. That is just wrong. I wish I could cuss on this forum because I would. I don't necessarily think my team deserves to go to state any more than any other team but it's pretty obvious that advancement to state was based solely on written and not on programming. Aren't we supposed to be testing critical thinking and problem solving? What the hell, UIL writers. What. the. hell.

Yeah, I already complained about the same thing. I totally agree. 3 1A schools got 9 done, which is just as ridiculous to me. And I just know that state is going to be MUCH harder than regionals, which makes me wonder why they don't increment the difficulty level at all. District was extremely easy, regionals was easy, and state is going to be much more difficult? I just dont understand.

Wait we can't curse in this forum?
But yeah I agree. That is definitely noticeable.
