USABO 2010 - Discuss

<p>Oh really? Where did you hear that from? Hopefully my score will be a little higher now.</p>

<p>that deadline extension really screws us over. other people get an extra week? bullshiz.</p>

<p>Could we get some minimum score for semifinals predictions by old-timers?</p>

<p>^^^I believe they had those types of question on semis previous years, and that’s how they score them.</p>

<p>if anyone wants to discuss questions - send me a private message.</p>

<p>i took the open exam on the 17th of Feb and i can show u proof that i took the exam…</p>

<p>2x Finalist, hoping for IBO this year.</p>

<p>@ cartesian: It takes alot of time out of your life. My frosh & soph years I studied several hours a day. IBOers tend to study pretty hardcore, & finalists as well. Many other finalists have done reasonably well on other olympiads, but IBO people tend to focus on bio.</p>

<p>I’ll guess ~ 25 cutoff, ~ 37 highest. </p>

<p>@ everyone: since there has been a deadline extension please refrain from discussing specific questions in the thread. Also, I would suggest caution with pms: make sure the person asking for answers has actually taken the test.</p>

<p>^ yo, delete that post. The testing period isn’t over yet.</p>

<p>oh sorry, is there anyway that i can delete my posts?</p>

<p>If anyone has any answers that they remember, Please PM me. I want to compare answers to see if i got over a 30 (hopefully) =)</p>

<p>Wait arent these the answers to the 2009 Open Exam?</p>

<p>yeah i think so, they look like the 2009 answers ^</p>

<p>No one PM him with anything. He is straight out looking for answers. Pretty suspicious.
Also he posted that list with no warning that it was 2009.</p>

<p>Sounds pretty suspicious. Do not discuss until Friday guys, to be safe.</p>

<p>I like how you intense USABOers can tell the year of an open exam with just a few letters…</p>

<p>can we start discussing question now?. I cant wait anymore. dam extended dates.</p>

<p>I think it’ll be good in a few hours. Anyways, the answer is 42.</p>

<p>I would suggest you wait until friday afternoon after like 4pm. By then, most people will have absolutely no chance of taking it in time.</p>

<p>i heard the test was extremely difficult…</p>

<p>does anyone know when the test will be posted online?
i didnt take it this year cuz i know i wasnt prepared</p>

<p>I believe that we can discuss answers now. The testing period was up till the 25th, and teachers had to mail the forms by today. </p>

<p>Who’s going to start us off?</p>

<p>Half Life… it was 2 mg not one so i thought it was 4 fold</p>

<p>My teacher didn’t not allow us to keep the test questions booklet. So I have to dig out my memory. The one asking “which one is incorrect” about the CNS, Is the answer A: Cerebellum is with motor control?</p>
