AMC 10/12/A/B 2013 Discussion Thread

<p>^ just skip the log stuff if you dont want to learn now (but you’ll have to anyways, and its not that bad). </p>

<p>Why not try reading some aops while taking a test or so every few days…i feel more aops would be better since the amc10 has gotten harder from previous years…</p>

<p>@Scholar35 (I can’t message you since I have less than 15 posts) no, i don’t have the answers but a junior who got 150/150 as a sophomore told me the answers. I don’t remember anything precisely, but I pretty sure the ones I solved were right.</p>

<p>@HarveyMuddLove Thank you I’ll try that before the next test come up.</p>

<p>I took the AMC 10 A today and I only answer at least only 9 questions that I knew how to solve. I guessed on the rest of the test. Yet, this is my first taking year it. The last 15 questions were like impossible.</p>

<p>in response to jkIVYleague</p>

<p>“Hey can u tell me the answers for amc 12 ?
I just took it and i thought the question about the intersection of triangle was difficult as well.”</p>

<p>sorry i cannt reply to messagess yet here: sure thing kiddo letme just say the amc waas by far easy becauuse my frieends in other skoolz told me the answers before i took the test bro lmfaaaoooo and i dont remember most of em but i did lyk, B D C A C for the last five. how about yu?</p>

<p>and by the way i think that amcdirector guy is a fake account made to scare us</p>

<p>12 A</p>

<p>Worse than last time with the first 10 instead of getting 13. sadly I didn’t get one or two of the very do-able ones after, but still, the people at my school performed similarly with one person having a higher score than me.</p>

<p>But I did way better on the 12B last year than I did on the 12A and was not knowing my conics away from qualifying, so there is hope :)</p>

<p>…So basically you’re telling everyone you cheated…
And honestly it doesn’t matter (in my humble opinion) whether the account is fake or not…it isn’t all that hard to wait <em>gasp</em> a few whole hours to discuss.</p>

<p>But anyway, moving on…
I’m pretty mad because I answered 19, omitted 6 which would have been fine (I took the AMC 10)…except then I realized afterwards that 1 was wrong. Great.</p>

<p>actally “orchidbloom”, its clear that you are horrible at math and im almost 100% sure i got at least 145 so in the end i win and its not lyk im going to get caught</p>

<p>I think minopatel is trolling…</p>

<p>Hey guys. All administrations of the test should definitely be done now… let’s discuss! Created a room here: zippychat[dot]com/room/xsosv</p>

<p>Do the A and B tests have any of the same questions?
(I mean, I wouldn’t think so if the answers are available for the A tests now, but you never know. Just wondering.)</p>

<p>@OrchidBloom that’s what happened to me last year :frowning: Except today I think I did a little worse-I answered 17. So far, they’re correct as far as I can tell… but anyway. I felt really sluggish today when I was trying to answer the questions. Anyone else feel like that?
Then again I didn’t prepare as much as I should have :stuck_out_tongue: so let’s see how the B test goes in 2 weeks!</p>

<p>@halcyon nope :slight_smile: cheating would be rampant otherwise :p</p>

<p>Discussion going strong. Need more AMC12’ers! zippychat[dot]com/room/xsosv</p>

<p>Any thoughts on the difficulty of this year’s AMC 10 compared to before? What do you guys expect the cutoff to be?</p>

<p>Maybe 117ish. It was definitely harder than last year’s B. Maybe harder than last year’s A, I don’t remember exactly.</p>

<p>ehhh…My school didn’t even offer a desk for us to write on!! Finished the test on my laps. dah.</p>

<p>@FlyingWombat - In my opinion, this year’s AMC 10 was a bit harder :stuck_out_tongue: the last 9~10 problems were impossible to solve in 3 minutes each</p>

<p>Can anyone tell me how they practice!
Do you guys use the ASOP Volume 1: The Basics?
Please help!</p>

<p>I wish the cut-off score for 2013 AMC 10A be 117. However, it sounds like 118.5 might be the accurate one.</p>

<p>I think the 10A was hard this year for sure. Just like last year, i didn’t take the AMC 10A but people who I knew took it scored 20+ points higher on the B. Hopefully the B is easier than the A so I can finally make AIME lol</p>
