Silver? or GOLD?

ok so the test was well, how do I put this, it was relatively easy. The last question was kinda hard but other than that the questions were not that hard. However, on one question we literally had to multiply out 9 to the ninth power. And well, I did the multiplication right but when I copied the answer from my process I missed a digit. DANG IT. So if they look at my process then I probably got it right but if they look at the answer and check it then, damn it, I got it wrong. I got the other 9 questions right though, there was this one question were all we had to do was count the tiles in a drawing they provided but believe it or not I counted it wrong two times, first I got 3/7, then 5/12, and at last the RIGHT answer, 4/9. But whatever the case, I'm 100% certain I passed to the next round, and that's basically all that matters because that's where we take the Team Selection test and that one really counts. This was just a preliminary. I hope that they can hold the test on-site instead of online because if it were online that would really suck, plus someone could cheat their way onto the team and that would be terrible. Oh well, that's basically it, I'm pretty sure Beam got the full score, but maybe there was a flaw in his process somewhere, there is also this seventh grader, we'll call him umm Wack, and Wack got 8 right so I'm pretty sure he'll pass too. Sadly Psi didn't get the best score and neither did Rama, but there's still a tiny chance for them to pass, it all depends on how other people did.
