<p>^^Thanks so much fizix, you cleared up my questions.</p>
<p>Geez last year you get 2.5 points for each blanks... now it's only 1.5 >.<</p>
<p>yea but they increased the number of people who can advance to the USAMO</p>
<p>We have to take it if we're in an honors class. It's kind of annoying really seeing as I hate math. But oh well. They give us muffins and hot chocolate so it's all good.</p>
<p>oh, they downgraded the blanks? hmm, that'll be interesting ._.</p>
<p>It's rumored that the first 15 questions will be easier now, can somebody verify that please?</p>
<p>hm, well i was scheduled to take the amc 12 tomorrow but my school's going to be closed because it's so freaking cold here.</p>
<p>so i don't really know what they're going to do abou that...but my math teacher will NOT be happy, because she usually has a LOT of high-scoring students who move up to the next level and then some that even make it to the top 100 or whatever it is.</p>
<p>Like the SATs, there are two versions of the tests-A and B. Schools who can not schedule the A test tomorrow simply re-register for the B test which is administered about 3 weeks after the A test. If you miss school on the B test... Good Luck!!</p>
<p>eh, i checked the alternate test date, and it's during my school's mid-winter break. oh, the irony...anyways, i dont really care...i wouldn't have passed anyways lol.</p>
<p>Just took the test. It was hard as expected. Anyways we can't discuss it until tommorow.</p>
<p>I'm sure you did fine. Do you think you will make it to AIME? What grade are you in?</p>
<p>omfg lol i realized i skipped a question at the very end and i screwed it up
curse you question 15!
argh oh well there will always be the 12B</p>
<p>oh, nothing like bubbling in names and addresses again... gosh, the feel of a standardized test... I can drown in the bile that is threatening to overflow and clog my esophagus</p>
<p>Aaaagh I got a 96 on the AMC 12. So close...school champ though. Maybe the altered scoring will push me up to top 5%...?</p>
<p>when do we get our scores??</p>
<p>Well, our school had us simulaneously bubble a second scantron so we could score them right after...I don't know when scores officially come in.</p>
<p>Re: the first 15 questions, they seemed the same.</p>

</p>
<p>When I took the AMCs last year the teacher read us the answers after the test, so if you circled them on your test paper you immediately knew what you got.</p>
<p>Just go by
6 points -- correct
1.5 points -- blank
0 points -- wrong</p>
<p>I slept for the last hour of it. It was wonderful. :]</p>
<p>I hate that our teacher signed us all up for it and forgot to mention it until yesterday. Goood job there.</p>
<p>lol, so you were only awake for 15 minutes of the test? </p>
<p>did your teachers pay for your registration fees then? gosh ._. I had to pay my own 2 dollars</p>
<p>My friends were all going to the AMC 10 so I just went with them. I ended up getting a 96. Is that a good score, or am I stupid? I have no idea</p>
