I can get 300+ consistently, averaging maybe 340 on TMSCAs, ~280-300 on D/R/S (last time, 300+ besides State, which was a 262 or so.). I can't break that in competition though. I usually feel good about the test, then I wind up doing horribly (by my standards). You aren't the only one. Apparently, NS takes a lot of practice, a lot of experience, and nerves of steel. Until I can perform well, consistently, at the meets, I can offer you no advice. Also, what do you mean by 'extensive guide' in Calculator? The book just tells you formulas, how to do certain problems, and general information abotu the contest.
