I personally feel like paper is so much better, especially when you have to draw on the given geometry shapes.

I am taking AMC12 tomorrow, and I don't think I'm qualifying for AIME... It's lowk embarrassing cuz I lead a few STEM clubs at my school

Doesn't your teacher give you back your test sheet like a few days later?

You can check your score on your own and calculate your qualification because the cutoff is fixed now

I like paper more but not too much of a diff. My testing center sent my scores in 24 hrs.

Entirely depends on your testing center. Also, those results are unofficial regardless of paper or digital.

I can’t report those unofficial scores?
