USABO 2017-2018

When do results come out again?

march 23

what do yall think the cutoff’s going to be?

prob mid to high 20s

hmmm what range would you say? I felt it was similar level to the other opens but there were a lot of chances to make sillies

“Mid to high 20s”
That’s a range… @lightninglord
As to all others—
I don’t 100% remeber but I think the test was heavily focused on genetics… kind of easier comparied to last years (at least for me)

I predict 22

@Anonymousia Oh my god. They moved the test date…

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

By the way, thank you for the information!

Why did they move everything later?

They moved the test release date?

Yep, it’s on the website.

Edit: The semifinals were originally to be held during the week of March 19-23. For whatever reason, they decided to push it back to April 9-13.

@Biotype can you link the page? I can’t seem to find it

Also— what date does it say it moved up to?

hey ya’ll im a sophomore tryna to start the USABO club at my school next year, do you guys think i should start studying now or this summer? sorry to but into this thread. also was it really hard; do you guys think its remotely possible to go to camp if it’s your first year doing it lol

Don’t worry! Everybody’s welcome on here! Except meanies.

I guess it depends on your schedule and studying speed. USABO requires you to memorize quite a lot of concepts and facts, the majority coming from the Campbell Biology textbook. The test is always really hard… If it’s your first year, then you may still have a chance; it just depends on how well you study. Research experience and AP science classes always help.

How many of you have taken it more than once? Have your scores improved a lot or a little? 2 years ago, my first time taking the test I got a little less than 17 and last year I just missed the cutoff but this year I think I did worse than last year.

2 more days… who’s excited??

Score is up. Check your portal.
