<p>Does anyone know what the cutoff for Top 100 was this year? I am wondering because the cutoff, combined with Top 100 statistics from previous years, might be a good predictor for the minimum score needed to achieve a Bronze award or higher. I would expect the Top 100 cutoff for this year to be lower than last year’s, since Part 1 and Part 2 both seemed harder in 2006 than in 2005.</p>
<p>For math-type stuff, I would use the <a href=“http://www.artofproblemsolving.com%5B/url%5D”>www.artofproblemsolving.com</a> site. There isa Michigan subforum (which you’ll have to pm a mod to join). Theres pages and pages on the MMPC.</p>
<p>I’m not sure if this year’s top 100 cutoff has been released (the MMPC page just has lists of the top 100 and remaning 100 in the top 200.)</p>
<p>You’re probably right - part II this year was much much harder than last year.</p>
<p>u think so? i thought the first few problems were easy, but the problem is, i didnt kno how to format them properly, so the way i proved them were probably not how they wanted it. anyway, i think that last year’s was harder.</p>
