• 1st place in local area, doubling 2nd place's score
• S1 recieved full points (40) & completed every test
• S2 recieved full points (40) & completed every test
• S3 failed (15 points) because I was rushing to get S4 done
• S4 didn't have time to complete
• In hindsight, knowing I only needed to pass 3 problems to advance to nationals, I should have focused on the 3 easiest problems & ensured they all worked.
