Practice, practice, practice......especially the c-flat major etude. 99% of the people auditioning are just going to hack through that one, especially at the region level. Make sure you're familiar enough with the style and key of each etude that you don't have to think about it when you're playing....it should all be muscle memory by that point. If you're looking for supplemental material, there are a few colleges that put out interactive help CDs (West Texas is the only one I'm certain of right now that does it). Talk to your band director or just call the WT music office if you want one. Also, several college faculties put on help sessions for the all-state music. Call your local music college and see what they have to offer. You might even be able to get a few lessons from the tuba-euph instructor there, who knows???

Hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!
