*OFFICIAL* AMC 12 2012 Discussion Thread

<p>[2012</a> AMC 12 A Statistics](<a href=“American Mathematics Competitions | Mathematical Association of America”>American Mathematics Competitions | Mathematical Association of America)</p>

<p>so now the cut-off is officially 94.5 yayyy :)</p>

<p>@bookworm007 nice, i think i got 99 but haven’t see the result yet, when does it come out?</p>

<p>Ah… i either got an 94.5 or 90… cant remember what i put for one of them</p>

<p>2010 AMC 12A qualifying score was 88.5 (top 7.258%)
2010 AMC 12B qualifying score was 88.5 (top 8.025%)
2011 AMC 12A qualifying score was 93.0 (top 6.382%)
2011 AMC 12B qualifying score was 97.5 (top 7.722%)</p>

<p>So to be fair, I think the cutoff for 2012 AMC 12A should be around top 7% instead of top 5% or 6%. It is also because 2012 12A is harder than 2011 12A based on the current stats posted on the link mentioned by @bookworm007. </p>

<p>What do you folks think?</p>

<p>wait really? 7.722%? well…everyhting is official now, i don’t think it will change</p>

<p>Thanks guys for the help … I’m taking the AMC 12 next week ;).</p>

<p>that’s last year’s</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>good luck to everyone on the 12B test!</p>

<p>if you take the 12B at a local college, everything is still the same right? like you can still qualify for AIME, etc…</p>

<p>Yes, everything is still the same. You can still qualify for AIME.</p>

<p>made it with 99, pretty happy about that. got highest score in my school, all others are 70ish or below</p>

<p>When do your schools get notified of students who are qualified (3 weeks?)</p>

<p>I just finished taking the AMC 12 B earlier today. Unfortunately, I don’t think I qualified, knowing I only answered 10 problems and missed one of them.</p>

<p>Regardless, how did you guys do or at least think you did?</p>

<p>I just took the amc12b. PM for discussion.</p>

<p>gg</p>

<p>EDIT: Just be warned to anyone giving out answers/ discussing… there are a lot of cheaters looming this site… cheaters annoy me…</p>

<p>same as above. PM for discussion. lol i failed</p>

<p>Same here! PM for discussion. Also, how did you guys feel about the difficulty? Harder or easier than 2012 A?</p>

<p>quite a bit harder</p>

<p>I agree, the last couple of questions just killed me. I should have just taken the A exam, I feel like I got less than 90 :/</p>
