Who made AIME?

Who made AIME? What were your AMC scores?

I'm a 120 on the 10A.
Going to AIME. I need like an 8 on the AIME. Very Possible. Chancing myself for USAJMO at about 60%.

We have only 3ppl made to AIME by AMC12A, the scores were loooowwww, 105(12th), 91.5(11th), and an 88.5(12th)
I'm pretty sure that nobody will make to USAMO from our school with that score...

I made AIME with a 100.5 on 12A...it was depressing. I don't really believe that I'll make it to USAMO. On the AIME, I don't think it will be difficult for me to get an 8 or a 9...but any higher will be.

[sinkokuyou]

wow, even smart ppl like Sumit only got an 100 on it... what's wrong with the test anyway?
and I think that, about 20ppl from TX will be qualifying to USAMO this yr... like it was before

[SumitG]

Ugh...actually I had a really bad day. I didn't even look at the back page because I assumed it would be much more difficult than the second to last one, which I found pretty hard. Also I read a question incorrectly...I ended up skipping 3 simple problems because of that...but yeah, I think the test this year was rather difficult compared to the last few.

what do u think the cut-off line for the USAMO would be? I would guess a 210...

[SumitG]

I'm not totally sure considering this year's AMC...but I'd say the cutoff is about 200-205. It's kinda sad, because I think my composite score was around 190-some...

[shrig94]

i failed, 200 index= 120 AMC 10 and 8 on the AIME.
I might make USAJMO.
It would be awesome if I did, I'd be depressed if I didn't. I would be the first person from Wichita Falls to do it. I believe Newberry missed it by a point or two his senior year.

Shri, good job on qualifying for USAJMO! Have fun there

[shrig94]

Thanks! I'm really excited for it haha!
