I am currently a junior and I qualified for the AIME and I think I took the AMC 12 because I am junior. Today my teacher gave me a pin saying AMC 10 school winner. How is that even possible if I took the AMC 12?
Did you take the 10 in previous years?
no @MITer94
Were you given the wrong pin? Or maybe you somehow took the AMC 10 by accident.
@IrisShadow I don’t think I took the wrong test. And I think somebody outscored me on the AMC 12. I know that some questions were the same between the AMC 10 and 12. Is it possible that amongst the AMC 10 questions I got the highest score?
No, that still wouldn’t qualify you to be a school winner at the AMC10. You were probably given a wrong pin or some other mistake happened
I’m so confused. Should I put on my resume?
More likely than not they gave you the wrong pin.
Simply because someone did better than you on the test doesn’t mean you aren’t qualified. Also, I would definitely put it on your college app. The likeliest explanation at this point would be you were handed the wrong pin.
