[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] People hate when parents come on here to brag. There were only three 6th graders in all of VA that scored a 20 last year and then only another 4 or 5 that scored 21 or better (a 5th grader at BASIS in McLean got a perfect 25). Practice makes a big difference. That's why math teams have a coach and practice. [b]What also makes a difference is what level of math your child is in at the time.[/b] [/quote] +1 And I bet that smart kid has already taken Algebra already.[/quote]
