[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TJ said in the info sessions you could be accepted with incomplete or incorrect PSE because it's about your logic in walking through the steps. My kid was waitlisted, probably not going to be the last time he gets waitlisted in his life. It is what it is. There are lots of ways he can still be engaged in STEM. I do wish Arlington tech had more opportunities like TJ, maybe one day[/quote] Higher level math competitions, to include the IMO, award points for the logic in a proof even if the competitor got the wrong answer. They are looking to see if the student can explain why they took the path they did and was it a logical path. Much of science and math isn’t getting the right answer but experimenting and doing so in a logical manner. I would be less concerned with the wrong answer then incomplete answers. [/quote]
