Took AMC12B Today

<p>No worries. I'm itching to talk about it too...</p>

<p>oh, sorry. but YAY IT'S THURSDAY.</p>

<p>At my school, nobody takes it. My HS doesn't offer it PERIOD. Pfft.</p>

<p>109.5 woohoo...</p>

<p>121.5. I dunno why, but I'm really really excited about it.</p>

<p>^^For some reason, I've been positively obsessed with the test since last year.</p>

<p>YAY FOR MY 1000th POST!!!!! I get to be a "Senior Member" now. this makes me happy. :D</p>

<p>man...my teacher showed us the answers today and I missed the EASIEST PROBLEM (#9.....GERRRRRRRR). i got 96 points b/c i didn't bubble in more than 14 answers. so playing safe wasn't a good option. haha, oh wellXD</p>

<p>96 could easily be the cutoff...for the 12A the cutoff was 97.5 or something. Keep your hopes up, you might get another chance! (Unless you took the AMC10, in which case better luck next year). :)</p>

<p>really? the instruction on the front of the packet said "if you score above 100 or are in the top 5%.....oh wait nm, i seeXD well, i'll keep hoping then :)!</p>

<p>I got a 97.5 I think. One mistake I make was thinking 90 + 60 was 120, not 150. There was also another one I answered which ended up being right but I had erased it at the last minute.</p>

<p>Bitter irony...this is my 173rd post, and 173 was the correct answer to one of the questions I got wrong.</p>

<ol>
<li>I also took the AMC 10A earlier this month and got a 126. Not bad for a first time without preparation, I guess... </li>
</ol>

<p>I'm planning on putting effort into studying and aiming for a 110-120 next year.</p>

<p>Does anyone have the answers to the 12B test? I took the test at another school so I don't have a teacher to ask for the correct answers.</p>

<p>Ah, thanks. Number 9 is supposed to be (A) 7 not (A) 2 right? 2 wasn't even an answer choice. Anyway, I got a 100.5, heh.</p>

<p>W00t 105: 15 correct, 10 blank.</p>

<p>We have 10 people that qualified for AIME this year from the 12A/B. None from 10A/B. I guess our frosh/sophs are dumb. Highest score was 130.5 in my school. Crazy, I know.</p>
