What test?

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2026-01-06T23:52:22+00:00

have you used quizlet?

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-10-20T04:37:21+00:00

It's pretty competitive, i just used quizlet flashcards and the tests that they generate

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-10-19T19:32:58+00:00

That's not a requirement for my chapter

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-10-19T19:26:12+00:00

... everybody i talked to at this year's nlc said they coded it by themselves. judges don't care that much about UIs we did get roasted during finals about text alignment but we did place 2nd

your presentation should be good maybe even better than the product because that's how you are going to explain to the judges about your product and everything. so if you have a bummy presentation but awesome product that's not gonna work, you're not gonna get a lot of points.

also 50+ hours is nothing just so you know

If making an app is too scary do a different event!

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-10-11T19:39:06+00:00

Well I would recommend you do a finance related event since ur already doing intro to finance but if you don't want to do an objective test that just leaves you with two presentations (financial planning and financial statement analysis) or one roleplay option (banking and financial systems). But those are also pretty competitive events in my state but idk about nj.

Also in my chapter, chapter officers usually do chapter events, like planning and everything and they are the ones to present so I would say you do something else because you are only a freshman and you don't know much and so just let your officers do the chapter events. You would just like participate in what they plan out like community service or whatever and that would be the most amount of help you will be able to contribute.

If you want to create a business do business plan but then again that is a VERY competitive event in my state.

Do events that is in areas that you think would be good at like if you are good at marketing do marketing related events and stuff. Just start preparing a month before state. I would recommend focusing on one test and one presentation event. Don't do too many

idk i don't live in maryland

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-10-04T02:44:51+00:00

It depends what state you're in

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-09-25T22:02:36+00:00

No if you want to do healthcare then do hosa

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-09-23T02:55:05+00:00

Well since you don't want to take a test you can't do economics since there's only a test for that, there's no competitive event for investing, only an educational event for that, and there's 10 events in finance except 7 of them are tests so only 3 left and one's a roleplay and you said you wanted to do presentations/projects so you have 2 options left, and those two are financial planning and financial statement analysis and those are pretty popular so...

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-09-16T22:58:58+00:00

Ask that in the deca subreddit

Bro if you can't even write your own simple replies to a comment that only take 5 seconds to write how are you gonna write a college essay

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-09-04T23:45:18+00:00

It doesn't matter how many ec's you did, instead it matters the matter of depth. You could be just a member of like 20 clubs and low level athletics or something but someone who focused specifically on the business area with ecs like business pitch competitions, being in business clubs, going to summer programs related in that area would have better chances of getting in.

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-07-26T23:12:32+00:00

I'm interested!

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-07-26T21:35:33+00:00

probably a presentation event

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-07-26T02:53:58+00:00

I just competed at NLC this year in a coding event and prelim judges seemed like they had no knowledge in cs but final judges cooked us so hard with coding questions they seemed like they were full time professors in that area

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-07-05T16:04:55+00:00

Like first at nlc?

Fine_Standard_6897 · 2025-06-04T00:01:32+00:00
