<p>Aiming for 12+. Probably won't make it because I've been slacking. Did one practice (2008 II), got a 12 (would've been 13 if I could read), but practice = no pressure.</p>
<p>Thankfully, 8 should get me into the USAMO this year -- 9 to be safe.</p>
<p>Haha nice, I got 13 on my practice AIME 2008 yesterday, but I'm aiming for 7+, which would most likely get me to USAMO.</p>
<p>^ Which 2008 AIME? I or II?</p>
<p>BTW, change of plans: My new goal is to beat DataBox. :D</p>
<p>^Both actually, but AIME I doesn't count because I took it officially last year.</p>
<p>Dude, you already beat me, you made MOP, I didn't....I'm also sure that your AIME score last year was much higher than mine</p>
<p>And you're like the smartest person that actively uses CC!</p>
<p>What was your AIME score last year? I answered all 15 confidently but then got 11 correct due to really stupid mistakes (think multiplying two-digit numbers wrong, etc.) :P</p>
<p>I haven't studied at all this year besides that one practice test. I don't really care -- my mind's on college (and Putnam!) So I wouldn't be surprised if you beat me tomorrow.</p>
<p>^Haha, mine was significantly lower...I answered 12 confidently, 2 semi-surely, and 1 guess. I ended up getting 9 correct due to three stupid mistakes =( (I fail at arithmetic)</p>
<p>my teacher told me that all ppl who score 8 or above in the aime pass tp the Usamo!is this true?</p>
<p>No. 10char</p>
<p>If you're in 10th grade or below, then an 8 is usually enough to get into the USAMO. If you're in 11th or 12th, then you have an index that is 10 * AIME score + AMC12 score. The cutoff index has been in the neighborhood of 210 for the past couple years.</p>
<p>Are we allowed to discuss how we did?</p>
<p>NO! Stay silent until it is Wednesday in all time zones around the world, as Sly Si said.</p>
<p>And since this thread: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/670552-2009-aime.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/high-school-life/670552-2009-aime.html</a> has been created, we can use it for discussion tomorrow. Can a mod edit the first post in that thread to take out the discussion of a problem?</p>
<p>9 hour countdown...</p>
<p>EDIT: forgot Hawaii/Alaska</p>
<p>I'm gonna be on at midnight. To see the scores. Anyone else?
I think I got 4 of them. That's all I'm saying.</p>
<p>I answered 6, put (somewhat) random numbers on another 7</p>
<p>I answered 15, 9 are correct for sure, 2 might be correct, I added wrong on 1, 3 are incorrect =(</p>
<p>state stats are up, if anyone cares.</p>
<p>on break, so taking aime ii.</p>
<p>1st place AMC 10, 2nd place AMC 12 in CA, alrite! =)</p>
<p>Grr... damn AIME. I answered 11, know i got at least one wrong, and guessed on the others..</p>
