Thank you so much for the video! I placed first in ETDM in the district and I am on my way to states in March. My partner and I will be preparing for the role play now also using your respective video as a guide.
If you are willing to spend some money, the website competition university has some. My students have access to it this year. It's worth it to get to the stage this year!!
Hi Bowtie GOAT! Im currently preparing for icdc and I seem to be getting between the 85-88 range for the cluster exam. I was curious what scores you would need on the roleplays + the exam to make it past the preliminary round (like a ballpark) and also do you have any tips on studying the performance indicators? Should I try and go over all of them, how should I focus my energy on that
It's tough to say what score you need on both components to advance. You should be able to get a 85+ on an ICDC level exam for a degree of confidence on being a finalist. Good luck!
Hi bowtie GOAT! Thank you so much for the video! I am competing in Ontario provincials for PFL. I scored 4th in my district (83 on written and 92 on role-play). I heard PFl is really competitive. Do you have any tips on how I can improve? I watched the role-play vid btw, it really helped! Thanks :)
Aside from these cluster exam tips, no I don't have anything else. But, one of my students scored a 94% on the district exam. Good luck. She will definitely see you at ICDC!
The 100-question cluster exam is broken down into questions by instructional area. The exam blueprint tells you how many questions from each instructional area will be part of the district/regional test, the state/provincial test, and the ICDC test.
Hi Bowtie GOAT! I'm currently preparing for SCDC which is in two weeks in Texas. Do you have any additional tips for the cluster exam and roleplays so I can really have a chance at ICDC? Is the cluster exam really a matter of just practicing and practicing? Additionally, do you have any tips on how to really ace my roleplays? I always have trouble coming up with the proper ways to phrase my sentences and good solutions to the problems. Thank you!
Wow, Texas DECA is tough. I can tell you the advice in this video brought one of my students last year from a 77 at districts, to a 85 at states and a top test score of 94 at ICDC. He ended up 7th in the world. If you pay close attention to the codes (PIs) in the end of the test, track which PIs you struggle with, and study those... then your test and role play score will increase. It seems like everyone is doing this, but they don't. It takes consistent, dedicated effort (and a little luck). But, your test scores should definitely increase. Good luck!
I believe there is one ICDC and one SCDC for each exam every year. Yes, they change yearly. Oh, if you check out HLM, the recorded role play is from my student!!!

Awesome. That is so good to hear. Good luck. Keep an eye out for me at ICDC. I will definitely have a team in ETDM.
@@BowtieGOAT Do you know if there are any extra role play practices outside of Deca plus for ETDM as this is our 2nd year in Deca? Thank you.

@@BowtieGOAT Thank you! One other question I had was, what kind of roleplay scores would put me in the running to be a finalist?
That's tough to say as role play judging is very subjective. I never give a score over 90, but many always score above 90.
@@BowtieGOAT yeah that makes sense, thank you!

Nice tips!!! Quick question, though. How do you understand the exam blueprints?

@@BowtieGOAT Thank you!!
I am taking mine today and I am nervous
Good luck! Do all the ones you know first and return to those you guessed on.
@@BowtieGOAT thanks a lot!!

I’m going to SCDC in Texas as well! Good luck! What event are you in?
I'm in BSM or Business Service Marketing! What about you?@@vivitv6425
Thank you! I will definitely take your tips into mind!@@BowtieGOAT

What's your opinion on DECA plus?
th-cam.com/video/2DmBSq3Dnm4/w-d-xo.html
Worth it for chapters of at least 30.
do you know where previous icdc / scc exams can be found ?
They used to exist at shopdeca.org. Now it looks like you can only get them if your chapter has purchased DECA+ yearly.
@@BowtieGOAT are the ones on deca+ different every year? my chapter has it but the last time i checked i don’t think there were many exams there

Where do we search the code
The codes are in the answer key for the tests.
I cant find the link
@sena, I'm sorry. All the links should be in the video description. Email me and I will make sure you have what you need. deca.goat@gmail.com
