I'm in 8th grade and have never taken the AMC 10. I am currently in alg2. I have scored 20 on AMC 8 this year and 34 on the chapter math counts last year. Can I qualify for AIME. Also what should I practice AMC 10 next year?

Burnout?
xHypotenuse 14

by JoyfulBear91
Hello everyone, these days I have a burning urge to pick up new math concepts because I think they are important/interesting. But I also feel a constant burnout where I get really tired when I try to solve math problems of these new concepts. I can't and then it gets very demotivating. I don't want to take a break from math because solving problems have become such a natural part of me and also I really want to qualify for usamo next year (my last year I can since it's senior yr). Any suggestions?

Day Before Tips

Hi Everyone,
USA(J)MO is tomorrow. I am a Junior, so this is my last chance. I made USAMO by ZERO points but I've actually been studying oly seriously since JMO last year. I am more stressed than I was before AMC/AIME because I feel Olympiad is more unpredictable and harder to prepare for. I am fairly confident in my ability to solve 1/4 but whether I can solve the rest really leans on the topic distribution.
Anyway, I'm just super stressed and not sure what to do. All tips are welcome!
Thanks everyone! Good luck tomorrow!

What got you guys into math? I'm asking because I got ~71 on the AMC 12B and 94.5 on 10A last year. This year, my dad expects me to get a 130 on 12B and 10 on AIME, but I have sort of lost motivation, and I know these goals will be impossible to achieve without said motivation.

I'm an 8th grader and I got 25 on amc8 but only 40 on chapter, I made aime barely this year but I got like problem 4 wrong on 10a 
so yes with your stats you have a decent chance, just study more and do past mocks, you can find them here on aops.
try to aim for at least 100. This year's cutoff for 10a was really low (94.5) but most years it's higher.
because you are in alg2, I'd recommend doing some geometry because there are several of those problems. maybe also start trig because they can provide faster solutions to them. but alg2 is a good start.
And make sure to not make sillies!!!!!!!!!! but I cant rlly say anything about that because i myself make 100000000 sillies every day

Honestly it depends
I qualified for AIME in 5th grade (9th grade now) with 106.5
but that year I got like 16 on AMC8 lol I sold
also I pre-prepped for MathCounts and did mocks
averaged like 36-40

Both completely different skill sets
my scores last year were

chapter: 41 (My MATHCOUNTS skills were more developed)
AMC 10: 81
This year:
AMC 8: 21
Chapter: 43
AMC 10: 135
imo just take mocks + learn the theory from aops
mathdash good too

Im finding that I can the first 10-15 pretty easily but I silly a lot a can't get many after #15. How can I help these problems?
Can you solve the problems with unlimited time? If not, you should probably read AOPS vol 1 since you might be lacking theory.
