AMC 12 Question
sadas123   6
N 8 minutes ago by gavinhaominwang
Hello! I am a 6th grader this year about to become 7th grade next year. I was wondering if I should take the AMC 12 next year because I think I am ready for it, I was thinking to do AMC 10 A and AMC 12 B, do you think it is a good idea? Here are the courses I finished and now I am working on:

Finished:
1. Intro Algebra
2. Intro Number Theory
3. Intro Counting and Probability
4. Volume 1

Working on:
1. Intermdiate Counting and Probability
2. Three Year Mathcounts Marathon

Upcoming:
1. Intro Geomtery (Next Month)
2. Intro to Alg (May)
3. Pre-calc (Summer)
4. Volume 2???

Stats for AMC 12 (Mocked):

1. AMC 12 A 2024: 100.5
2. AMC 12 B 2024: 105
3. AMC 12 A 2023: 96

The reason why I sometimes I get 100+ is because sometimes I know how to do the first step of the problem but the last step I have to kind of infrence but still i know how to do the problem.

Apply for Team USA at the International Math Competition (IMC)!
peace09   54
N an hour ago by profhong
The International Math Competition (IMC) is essentially the elementary and middle school equivalent of the IMO, with individual and team rounds featuring both short-answer and proof-based problems. See past problems here.

Team USA is looking for 6th graders and below with AIME qualification or AMC 8 DHR (or equivalent), and for 9th graders and below with JMO or Mathcounts Nationals qualification. If you think you meet said criteria, fill out the initial form here.

Here are a couple quick links for further information:
[list=disc]
[*] Dr. Tao Hong's website, which contains a detailed recap of the 2024 competition (and previous years'), as well as Team USA's historical results. (You may recognize a couple names... @channing421 @vrondoS et al.: back me up here :P)
[*] My journal, which gives an insider's perspective on the camp :ninja:

Cooked for AMC 10?
Dream9   3
N 3 hours ago by bhontu
So I'm like a 8th grader so almost 9th over the summer and I suck at AMC 10. I got like a 75 for my first time but I can do like almost all the problems from AMC 8 with enough time which I find really weird because most other ppl who can do that get higher AMC 10 scores. I do like the first 11 problems a day from past years to try to at least get down the first 10 questions and move on from there. Does anyone have any good suggestions on how I can boost my AMC 10 scores?
+ something annoying that often happens is like I don't even know where to start when I see a problem.

If you can do all the AMC 8 problems you can try to see problems 12-20 - there are usually a couple of very easy problems there.
When you do a test try to target the first 15 problems - here, time is a big constraint so time yourself while practicing.

That's completely normal. You do not have to aim to get a perfect score to qualify. But always try the final five after each mock test.
