The first one I took.  I'm going to try to go through a few tests a week, variously AMC 8s and 10s.  I'm aiming for qualification in the AIME, which means that I need a 120.  Here I am starting out with AMC 8s.  I got a 21 on this one.  If I had read how they were scored, I would've approached the test a bit differently and got a 23.    I made a stupid mistake on 6 (ouch), misread 8, and didn't approach 16 correctly.  If I had guessed, though, I would've gotten it right.  On 20 I used my awesome process of elimination skills and... eliminated the answer.  I will not let myself move on to AMC 10's until I get a 25.  (Maybe 2 of them, if it doesn't happen soon)

AMC 10 Training (10th grade)

1996 AMC 8

(8/19/11) The first one I took. I'm going to try to go through a few tests a week, variously AMC 8s and 10s. I'm aiming for qualification in the AIME, which means that I need a 120. Here I am starting out with AMC 8s. I got a 21 on this one. If I had read how they were scored, I would've approached the test a bit differently and got a 23. I made a stupid mistake on 6 (ouch), misread 8, and didn't approach 16 correctly. If I had guessed, though, I would've gotten it right. On 20 I used my awesome process of elimination skills and... eliminated the answer. I will not let myself move on to AMC 10's until I get a 25. (Maybe 2 of them, if it doesn't happen soon)
