No, is not in standard form.

Standard form has the variable terms arranged in descending order of degree in the LHS and the constant term in the RHS.

By the way, what is the meaning of three question marks alternating with three exclamation points? I mean, I get that you are confused, but I question precisely how confused. How much less confused would you have to have been so that you would have only written two of each punctuation mark? Also, do the exclamation points indicate that you are emphatically confused, or startled that you are confused? Is there a special meaning to the fact that you alternated the marks, or would the meaning have been precisely the same had you written "???!!!" or some alternate permutation? Just curious.
