I got 1/50 in girls maths Olympiad. AMA

have a sweet to cheer you up. 6 are orange, the rest are yellow.

in fact have two.

How kind of you, I shall take 2 of the orange sweets

lol

Do you prefer pigeons or seagulls?

what was the chance of that happening ?

I'm doing a level maths so I guess the teacher thought that made me eligible to participate. The other girls who did it struggled too so it's not like I was the weakest link or anything and I would say our abilities were equally matched

Oh. It must have been amazing to participate though right? Didn't you take Further Maths?

I did the Intermediate Maths Olympiad last year, it was like 2 hours, so long. I should've brang a snack. If it was shorter I think I would've done better since I would be under more pressure and actually stay alert rather than being bored and taking my time.

Yeah I guess it was kind of, but it just felt like an exam to me so I wouldn't say amazing... and yeah I ended up taking further maths:0 how do you know this?

I get what you mean. I'm not psychic haha, I was just asking that as a question.

Haha i would've believed you if you had said you were psychic

If you could do the Olympiad again, how would you prepare differently?
