USABO 2010 - Discuss

<p>blackhawkup357: the TRC is the teacher resource center on the USABO site. Your teacher can access it and it has all the scoring info</p>

<p>does it show what you got in each section?</p>

<p>it shows what you got on the multiple choice (A + B) as one score and free response (C) as a second score</p>

<p>152/160…wow. That’s amazing.</p>

<p>Hah, it seems I just barely got in, similarly to Insorak. 108 multiple choice + 1 part C (lol).</p>

<p>117, 112 + 5. Pretty sure I got 1 point on the plant chart and nailed 2 and 3.</p>

<p>hey everybody, how are you guys getting there and when?</p>

<p>by car, probably there at noon. Anyone else getting there early and want to hang out and get to know each other?</p>

<p>I’ll probably be there around noon, by plane. Though it will take about two hours to get from the airport to Purdue.</p>

<p>Stupid ARML.</p>

<p>overnight flight + another flight + 2 hr bus ride to purdue.
i’ll be there around 1, unless there is a major delay.</p>

<p>^ Overnight flights are the worst. I don’t mind flying, I do mind flying in the dark. =&lt;/p>

<p>But somehow, you’ll still be there earlier than me, and I need to get up at 3 in the morning! I’m jealous. :P</p>

<p>Out of curiosity, are we supposed to write our bios in first person or third person? Also, how is 500-700 words supposed to be one paragraph? Last time I checked, that was a full-sized college essay…</p>

<p>This whole getting to know you stuff is making me think that instead of bio boot camp, we’re going to a fun summer camp! haha. What did you guys write about?</p>

<p>^ … me. :P</p>

<p>I hate starting to write paragraphs like these. There’s no good way to begin. >.<</p>

<p>^ well, i have the first sentence: _________ is a junior at ___________ high school.
then, i’m stuck.
and i’ve never written a 500 word paragraph before o_o;;</p>

<p>guys, look at the biographies the physics kids wrote.</p>

<p>^ are you talking about the us physics team kids?
they are friggin math powerhouses wow. O.o</p>

<p>so i’m assuming i’m not limited to one paragraph?</p>

<p>gotta write 500 words for College apps haha…joy</p>

<p>does anyone know whether they send out more info about the finals?
like what stuff to pack?</p>

<p>nvm, just received the student info stuff</p>
