I had more than two minutes left in the oral round (I don't know exactly how many seconds) and about 2 minutes left in the written.

Yeah, and I forgot to mention that I didn't pass any and started over only once. It helped that they didn't include the five longest passages. So yeah, I probably could have gone a little bit slower… :) But I asked my mom, and she said my enunciation was excellent, so I don't think it hurt my score any.

2 Corinthians 5:17

Sure :) Isaac placed 1st in the Juniors, and Aaron placed…I'm not sure…don't remember…was it 4th? They also had another brother who was Senior, he placed 5th.
Where did you place?

I was second place, but the first place girl (who has been to Nationals all three years) tells me she thinks we were pretty close in score. I guess we'll find out soon.

No, and I don't think I will try to. It just seems not fair for me to know my score and others to not know theirs - I say that because I think it's unfair that I don't know my score and others do. :)

I had just under two minutes left in orals and I started over once because I started saying 1 Chronicles 16:8-12 instead of Psalm 9:1-4. I only said like three words though, before I realized I wasn't saying the right thing. :P

I was at like question 175 or 180 or something when they called 15 minutes, but I went back through and checked some of my answers when I finished. I didn't have enough time to check all of them though.

I had 2 minutes 1 second left in the oral round, and I didn't finish the written test. I missed the last 8 questions!

Aaron got 3rd. I had 2:38 left on the oral round and about 3 minutes on the written test I think. I did not pass on any or ask for any helps or start-overs. I also did not have to have any start-overs because of mis-pronunciation.

SBG and I both finished with exactly 2 minutes and 41 seconds to spare in the oral round. I probably would have gone slower had I known that they were going to leave out all 5 of the longest passages: 2 Peter 3:3-9, Ezekiel 36:23-27, Ephesians 6:10-18, Galatians 1:11-17, and Acts 20:18-24.

With regard to the written test, I didn't check exactly, but I think I finished with about 5 or so minutes left on the clock. I spent the rest of the time checking over my answers and making a couple of changes.
