[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My guess is that my dd is getting 15-16/25, based on her practice tests at home. [/quote] BTW, the difficulty of AMC8 has considerably grown over the last few years. If your child is taking practice tests from the 2015 or earlier time frame, expect them to do 3-5 points higher than on a test today. Our child routinely got 23-24 on some 200x tests and just 19 on this year's. (Part of it might be the fact that it's offered on a computer, making it impossible to write on the test paper, and that the order of questions is now scrambled.) But they definitely made it harder, perhaps in response to the larger number of kids that prepare. That's one of the few areas where the level of math has actually increased.[/quote]
