congrats @glutathione
Congrats! do you know if usabo has high honors this year?
@JKMSNJ uhh wrong person to congratulate but I’ll tell my friend congrats again on your behalf!
@glutathione what did the email say?
Any good news, everyone?
The result is out, my son did not make it to the finalist this year, but it is a good learning experience. Curious to know the cut off score!
Did the total score change this year? Maybe I just did really poorly, but I’ve heard claims that Part B was only worth 1 point each this year.
I’m pretty confident part b was only one point per question because thats what it said on my exam.
So the full/total score should be 120?
total should be 160
part 1 and 2 are 60 each, part 3 is 40
I think the free response was 30 to 50 points so the total score would be higher… I’m not sure about that at all though. Was the cutoff or any sort of histogram released? Also, did anyone get indication top 50 (or top 10% I don’t know what it is)…
I thought part 3 was 45? I might be wrong. Also, does anyone have the histogram?
I think part c was 40, but could be wrong. I’m interested in seeing the histogram too, if anyone has it. If not, I’ll check on monday with my proctor/sponsor (everyone else can too, I believe it’s posted on the teacher resource center). Does anyone have an idea of the score range? I got an 82.5 and didn’t advance. I’d be interested in hearing from people who did better or even advanced @glutathione if your friend is willing to share
The cutoff was 93.5/160.
@Solanaceae nice, where did you hear this? Are you a finalist? (Also are they recognizing the top 50 this year? If so, do you know what the cutoff for that might be?)
Yea I’m a finalist. Top 50 will probably be recognized, so ask your teacher for the histogram to see what the cutoff is (I’m guessing mid-80s).
Congrats Solanaceae! Thank you for the information! I hope you enjoy USABO camp!
Congrats @Solanaceae ! I remember you from last year’s thread too lol, hope you have fun at camp as well!
Just a question for all- does high honors get notified on the website as well?
Also, does anyone know how long it usually takes for high honors certificates to be mailed?
