Overview

Each summer, the USA Math Olympiad Team compete against students from over 60 nations and consistently finish in the top 3.  The premier math competition at high school level is a series of math contests that lead to the selection of the USA Math Olympiad (USAMO) Team.  The exams are developed and administrated by the American Mathematical Association:

• AMC 10 - American Mathematics Contest for students in grade 10 or lower.  Approximate 100,000 students participate annually.
• AMC 12 - American Mathematics Contest for students in grade 12 or lower.  About 125,000 students participate annually.
• AIME - American Invitational Mathematics Exam.  You need to score 120 or higher on AMC 10 or 100 or higher on AMC 12 to receive the invitation.  Around 15,000 students receive invitations annually.
• USAMO - USA Math Olympiad Exam.  Top 375 students who took AIME qualify for writing the USAMO exam.
• MOSP - Math Olympiad Summer Program.  Top 24 students and top 9th graders who took USAMO are invited to the all expense-paid summer program as a part of the USA Math Olympiad training program.  Top 6 students from MOSP will represent United States at the International Math Olympiad competition.

Our Math Olympiad program is designed to provide the basic level of math competition training so our students can do well on these exams and be qualified to elite and selective summer camps (e.g., AwesomeMath, USA/Canada Math Camp, PROMYS, RSI and MOSP).  Selective colleges such as Harvard, MIT, Princeton and Stanford invite students to provide AMC/AIME exam scores on their college admission applications.

G210 - Introductory Math Olympiad

This course teaches problem solving at a level comparable to the AMC 10 exam.  It covers high school math problem solving concepts in Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II.  Since AMC 10 problems are more challenging than those on the SAT I Math, the course actually prepares the students to ace SAT I as well without additional effort and preparation.

The AMC 10 is a 75-minute, 25-question math contests organized by American Mathematical Association.  If you score 120 or higher out of maximum score 150, you are qualified for the American Invitational Mathematics Exam (AIME).  About 15,000 top high school students qualify for AIME annually.  Any student in grade 10 or below (age 16 or younger) is eligible to take AMC 10.

G220 - Intermediate Math Olympiad

This course teaches problem solving at a level comparable to the AMC 12 exam.  It covers high school math problem solving concepts in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus.  Since AMC 12 problems are more challenging than the SAT I & II Math, the course actually prepares the students ace SAT I and SAT II as well without additional effort and preparation.

The AMC 12 is a 75-minute, 25-question math contests organized by American Mathematical Association.  If you score 100 or higher out of maximum score 150, you are qualified for the American Invitational Mathematics Exam (AIME).  About 15,000 top high school students qualify for AIME annually.  Any student in grade 12 or below (age 18 or younger) is eligible to take AMC 12.

G230 - Advanced Math Olympiad

This course teaches problem solving at a level comparable to the AIME exam.  It covers high school math problem solving concepts in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus, but at a more challenging level.  It also introduces many of the high level problem solving techniques not taught in the school math curriculum.

The AIME is a 3-hour, 15-question math contests organized by American Mathematical Association.  If you score 100 on AMC 12 or 120 on AMC 10, you qualified for the American Invitational Mathematics Exam (AIME).  About 15,000 top high school students qualify for AIME annually.  Top 375 students who take the AIME qualify for USAMO.
