Fair point. I think AMC mainly assesses your knowledge whereas HAST moreso implies the analysation of logic or sm
That's... an odd way to put it, at least to me.

I think they both assess knowledge, but AMC assess knowledge which is learnt, often from school, how well you know and understand the things you've been taught, while HAST is more about how you work with the information you're given, more like.. raw knowledge. But, I was looking at 2017 AMC papers as reference, so I could definitely be wrong.

I never thought of it as 'analysation of logic', that's all. I was just sharing my thoughts, sorry then.
No thats not what I meant 😭
first off - I meant the test would require u to use logic that the assessors would analyse
secondly - I was jokin man dont take it personally ☠☠😭
