USABO 2016

For the questions with “select all that apply”, is there partial credit?

@glassflowers yes. Each correct answer is worth 0.2 points

HAHAHA I don’t have a Campbell book!

How was it everyone,

We can discuss it over skype.

They really should just release the answers after everyone has taken, I don’t want to study for another month and then realize it was for nothing…

I feel for you man. I’m quite annoyed at that too. But I guess it preps us for real life. During our career, we never get immediate results. We may have to waste a ton of months, and maybe even years for failure. But who knows, maybe all that extra studying might somehow help us in the future. Kinda bummed but kinda understanding…

Are we not allowed to discuss answers here? I’m pretty sure I failed but confirmation would be nice XD

Don’t worry. There are a lot of people who think they failed and pass. And, yeah we can’t discuss the answers because some people haven’t taken the test, and we really don’t want to raise the curve. If you want to talk about the test, we can chat through skype or something.

oh man guys can we discuss please i wish i just knew if i got the answers right :frowning:

can we kik or something like that

Do you wanna kik?

for the multiple true/false on the Open Exam, is there a penalty for getting the wrong answer?

no penalty

So, kik then?

@Demonslayer1234 Easy for you to say, getting 38 on practice tests, haha. Scraped by with 29-31 on the more recent ones.

The test was so hard! Hopefully the cutoff is much lower this year…

We can discuss some of the questions here goo.gl/SpkisV Does anyone know the cutoff?

PLEASE DO NOT POST OR DISCUSS ANSWERS ON THIS WEBSITE. THE OPEN EXAM IS ADMINISTERED UNTIL FEBRUARY 12TH AND DISCUSSING ANSWERS WILL ONLY LET OTHERS RAISE THE QUALIFYING SCORE EVEN HIGHER

I’m pretty sure everyone on the west coast took it. Besides I won’t remember the answers for too long.
