Special AIME Problem Seminar B

This class is a special 5-hour weekend seminar to prepare for the AIME, which is the second in the series of tests used to determine the United States team at the International Math Olympiad. Many top colleges also request AIME scores as part of the college application process. In this course, students learn problem solving strategies and test-taking tactics relevant to the AIME. The course also includes a practice AIME test.

Who Should Take?

This class is appropriate for students who are hoping to pass the AIME. If a student already consistently scores above 10 on the AIME, this class is probably not necessary, and if a student is unlikely to answer more than 1 or 2 questions correctly, then that student should start with some of our Introduction series of classes. The material for this class is distinct from the Special AIME Problem Seminar A.

Lessons

Lesson 1 Algebra and Counting
Lesson 2 Number Theory and Geometry

This was the first AoPS class I have taken, and I feel like it was lots of fun and the instructor was very helpful without giving away too many hints. The class also opened my eyes up to a lot of new possibilities and kind of made me feel very small in the sense that there is a vast amount of problem solving techniques and mathematics branches that I have yet to even hear about, much less learn or master. It was also my first online class, and I loved the flexibility it gave me in doing homework and keeping up with class.
