Hello, I am going to be a 7th grader next year and I really want to qualify for USAJMO in 8th grade, so far I have these goals reached

1. AMC 10 Honor Roll A and B 2025
2. AMC 8 DHR and HR
3. AIME 3

This year on AIME something happened and I got a 3

on the AMC's I got a 105 on AMC 10 A and I got a 114 on AMC 10 B. I want to improve mostly on AIME but since the AMC 10 is coming up quicker what would you guys recommend for getting 110+ on both of the AMC 10's and getting a 6+ on AIME? So far I am only doing Alcumus and have no books so far.... Checking the table of contents on the books Alcumus provides the same topics. I was thinking to take WOOT 1 and AMC 10 Problem Series.

No that was a troll I scored a 41 on chapter but I didn't make states because my chapter is too competitive,

I took so many AOPS mocks that I was shocked how easy the AMC's were this year. Just take AOPS mocks, it's that simple. I was getting a little demotivated since I was scoring around a 90-110 on AOPS AMC 10 mocks, but I guess that just translates to DHR
