Science Olympiad — LI Youth Development Inc.

Science Olympiad Exam Preparation Club

Our goal? To prepare students for Science Olympiad, as well as giving students resources and incentives to learn on their own!

We, the instructors, believe one can improve their SciOly practices by practicing, practicing, and practicing. Do past tests, review, repeat. Do, review, repeat.

We believe you’re not “born to do good at SciO”, you do good at SciO because you’ve put in time and practice.
