7/31/2025 2024 AMC 12B student reflection notes from Ay

1) Reviewed the SAT vocabulary words 2) Reviewed the attached problems and solutions 3) Attempted the 2024 AMC 12 B. I attempted 20 questions out of 25 and skipped these: #15, #18( very easy and I could solve it later), #21, #23, #24 Out of the questions attempted, I got #22 wrong but later realized it was a careless mistake and I could solve it. Rest all questions were answered correctly- #1 to #14, #16, #17, #19 , #20 and #25
