[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I don't believe it's entirely about practice. A kid good at math will be able to do well without practice. My 6th grader took an AMC 8 without any practice and scored around 20. He also scored in the top 10% of the AMC 10 test. Of course, there is no doubt that practice helps, especially with respect to speed (and probably type of problem). [/quote] +1. Kids who are very good at math can earn high scores without much practice. The flipside is also true: On the AoPS forums, there are many kids who practice quite a lot for the AMC and Mathcounts tests, yet fail to earn high scores. [/quote]
