Rating
First and foremost, rating is the system that allows you to view your performance compared to your peers, as well as select blitzes that are in line with your current skill level. Everyone starts out at 500 rating, and can gain elo for competing in blitzes. Depending on your performance on the blitzes you take, your rating will either go up or down. For your first few blitzes, rating will change more drastically, finding an accurate rating for yourself. On the leaderboard, you will be able to see the tier of your peers. Compete in blitzes, improve, get practice, and most importantly have fun! We provide a myriad of questions spanning the topics necessary for the USA Biology Olympiad as well as the MCAT examinations, and other related competitive biology competitions.
