Compute This

[JustDroobles]

Thanks. I don't know why they don't let us use the computer calculator. But wait. You could get a calculator from the internet. Like on online calculator and use that instead.

At state we each had our own account to save on. Like one team was Olympiad.1, one was Olympiad.2, etc. You saved it there and printed it out.

But yeah. Getting first in this made me feel accomplished, because the national champions are in my state. I beat the national champions. I believe they got 6th lol

Are you from Ohio?

Ohio has 40 teams at state, one of them defending national champions.

They were at an invitational my team went to, and I beat them too! I got 3rd and their two teams got... not so third. I think it may have been the only event in which we beat both of their teams.

thats hardly any NY had 39(though for some reason the team numers went up in tothe 40's)
Also after having a prety disaterous Compute This at regionals(8th-and it was worse than it sounds) we managed to get 3rd at NY states.

[fmtiger124]

nice! what state are you from?

my team just had its state on saturday, and we got 2nd. i got 1st in compute this and im really happy lol

i was just looking at the scoreboard and u guys had ur Compute This test scroe from NY states up--how did u find it out?
I got 3rd at NY states and don't know mine

[fli754]

it was really a guess i suppose. I went back and tried to find the information again (at home) and all my answers were correct, except for half of a shortanswer. I believe that short answers were 50 points, total, and each question was 10 points. I think the URL is half of the points, so I got probably around 2.5 points off.

I really don't know, but I'm pretty sure the top five teams got near perfect scores, cause the test was really really easy

[Uranium235]

yes. i could have finished it myself. and sometime working slower isn't that bad... -ahem-
