So I just found out I qualified for state competition in Business Calculations and I'm kind of freaking out. Districts were honestly way easier than I expected, but everyone keeps telling me state is a completely different beast. I have about six weeks and I genuinely don't know where to start. I've been using an FBLA practice test I found online but I'm not sure if the questions are even representative of what shows up at state level.
My chapter adviser gave me the official study guide but it's pretty dense and I'm also juggling AP exams at the same time. Last year our school sent three people to state and only one placed — she said the math section caught her totally off guard with how fast-paced it was. I'm aiming for top five. Has anyone found a study schedule that actually works, or specific exam tips for Business Calculations in particular? What should I be prioritizing with limited time?
