Are there any Comp Sci gurus on this board? If so, I want to ask you a question. Which written test do you find to be more representative of computer science (not Java syntax, mind you), UIL or Scroggs? Also, which do you find harder in difficulty?

I'd say both are equally similar to the AP test, but both focus a lot more on syntax than general computer science. In my experience, UIL regional and state tests are the only ones that test interesting CS material beyond syntax. But the sample space is only about 3 years so I don't have much to go on. Scroggs is a little harder in my opinion, especially compared to district and invitational UIL tests. Scroggs seems to be trickier. I think I just convinced myself I like UIL better. Go for UIL until you run out. Then there's plenty of Scroggs to use.
