I've created this to see how much fail-er I am than xpmath.

Contents

Pre-Grade

I was in Private Schools galore. Multiplication was a joy. School was a pain. Homeschool FTW

First Grade-Midway Second Grade

Mom tried teaching me, but that failed. So Dad just gave me old finals and I got to Algebra in no time.

Third Grade

I finished Algebra 1 and started Algebra 2.

Fourth Grade

I learned about MathCounts and finished Pre-Calculus. I would have made scoring team, but oh well.

Fifth Grade

SKIPPED.

Sixth Grade

Got scoring team MC, got 25th at state. I got a 99.5 on the AMC 12, and competed at NYSML(score of 4). 18 AMC 8. Started self-teaching.

Seventh Grade

Got to Nats MC! Yay! Got 78th there. Made AIME with 111 AMC 12, and got a 3 there. I got 7 at NYSML and failed HMMT. 21 AMC 8.

Seventh Grade(again)

Held back. Don't wanna graduate early. Doing new material. Got to Nats MC and got 29th. Made AIME with 126 AMC 12, and got a 5. Got another 7 at NYSML(stupid mistake), failed Princeton and HMMT. iTest team WOOTlings got 12th. 25 AMC 8.

Eighth Grade

iTest team Albany Area Math Circle got 8th. Didn't take AMC 8. I FAILED SAT! DX 770 Math, 570 Critical Reading, 510 Writing! I DID NOT FAIL PRINCETON! NOR PHYSICS OLYMPIAD! :D I got 133.5 AMC 12 and did not fail at HMMT! :D

Goals:

  • 8+ AIME: YES! 8!
  • 8 NYSML: The format was changed to 10 questions, so I got a nine.
  • 7+ ARML: I failed this goal with a 4.
  • Place top team at NYSML(A division :( ) : high expectations. :(
  • Get at least 100 people to visit my blog.
