2019 AMC 10B

by MP8148, Feb 13, 2019, 3:33 PM

I will be taking it in 30 minutes, which feels super weird. Although I can skip math class for this, I have to make up the quiz after school which sucks.

Anyways, here's what I did in the past few days:

1. Wrote an SAT Essay.
2. Did the end-of-chapter problems of chapters 6 (polynomials), 9 (complex numbers), and 13 (equations) of volume 2.
3. Studied Precalc chapters 8 and 9 (complex geometry and vectors)
4. More Alcumus
5. and more but my mom's calling me to leave so I'll post them later.

Adding something irrelevant but I don't feel like making a new entry about: so today I talked to my math teacher about my math class next year: I plan to take Calculus D (dual enrollment), but the prerequisite for that is completion of Calculus BC course. Unfortunately, I didn't have the privilege of taking that course (aka not enough space), so my teacher recommend me to take an online BC course which sounds like a waste of time and money. This might sound bad (and it did when I first thought about it), but then I realized that this is going to be my excuse of taking another AoPS course! I enjoy AoPS courses very much and taking a rigorous Calculus course sounds awesome, plus I don't have to worry about wasting my time / money because it's going to be worth it. So now I'm in a pretty good mood (good enough to sit here and type this) as long as I don't think about the AMC this morning (oops I am thinking about it again :furious:).

==========

Test report:
CCCCC CCCCW CCCCC CCBWC CBBBB = 115.5.

I got #10 wrong because I was rushing the test and didn't even bother to check the answers.

I put 98 for #19 because I'm dumb, and I actually felt much better seeing 119 is also wrong and so many people got trolled by this.

I left #18 blank because my brain was not functioning correctly, and I ended up wasting a long time on this.

Favorite problem: #16 (nice geometry).

Least favorite problem: #15 (literally just a bash).

==========

Did not do well (also last AMC 10 sad) but at least I have an okay 10A score. Time for AIME prep!

Good luck! (though in hindsight it's probably over for you...)

Thanks! I strongly suspect that I’m the only one in my school to score >80 points XD.

  • The question is, how will it end?
    and the smart answer is "I won't be alive to see it end so I won't care and I will just get this midterm done"

  • @below this is why you shouldn't waste your time thinking about life, because it doesn't give happy results :dry:
