May is an exciting month! National MATHCOUNTS is the second week of May in Washington D.C. and our Founder, Richard Rusczyk will be presenting a seminar, Preparing Strong Math Students for College and Careers, on May 11th.

Are you interested in working towards MATHCOUNTS and don’t know where to start? We have you covered! If you have taken Prealgebra, then you are ready for MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Basics. Already aiming for State or National MATHCOUNTS and harder AMC 8 problems? Then our MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Advanced course is for you.

Summer camps are starting next month at the Virtual Campus in math and language arts that are 2 - to 4 - weeks in duration. Spaces are still available - don’t miss your chance to have an enriching summer experience. There are middle and high school competition math camps as well as Math Beasts camps that review key topics coupled with fun explorations covering areas such as graph theory (Math Beasts Camp 6), cryptography (Math Beasts Camp 7-8), and topology (Math Beasts Camp 8-9)!

Be sure to mark your calendars for the following upcoming events:
[list][*]May 9th, 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET, Casework 2: Overwhelming Evidence — A Text Adventure, a game where participants will work together to navigate the map, solve puzzles, and win! All are welcome.

Do you want to have a chance to win thousands in cash and raffle prizes (no matter your skill level)?

Check out the fifth annual iteration of the

Online Monmouth Math Competition!

Online Monmouth Math Competition, or OMMC, is a 501c3 accredited nonprofit organization managed by adults, college students, and high schoolers which aims to give talented high school and middle school students an exciting way to develop their skills in mathematics.

Our website: https://www.ommcofficial.org/
Our Discord (6000+ members): https://tinyurl.com/joinommc

This is not a local competition; any student 18 or younger anywhere in the world can attend. We have changed some elements of our contest format, so read carefully and thoroughly. Join our Discord or monitor this thread for updates and test releases.

How hard is it?

We plan to raffle out a TON of prizes over all competitors regardless of performance. So just submit: a few minutes of your time will give you a great chance to win amazing prizes!

Essentially, how to get good at olympiad math?
gulab_jamun   1
N Today at 5:12 AM by Konigsberg
Ok, so I'm posting this as an anynonymous user cuz I don't want to get flamed by anyone I know for my goals but I really do want to improve on my math skill.

Basically, I'm alright at computational math (10 AIME, dhr stanford math meet twice) and I hope I can get good enough at olympiad math over the summer to make MOP next year (I will be entering 10th as after next year, it becomes much harder :( )) Essentially, I just want to get good at olympiad math. If someone could, please tell me how to study, like what books (currently thinking of doing EGMO) but I don't know how to get better at the other topics. Also, how would I prepare? Like would I study both proof geometry and proof number theory concurrently or just study each topic one by one?? Would I do mock jmo/amo or js prioritize olympiad problems in each topic. I have the whole summer ahead of me, and intend to dedicate it to olympiad math, so any advice would be really appreciated. Thank you!

9 best high school math competitions hosted by a college/university
ethan2011   16
N Today at 4:23 AM by aarush.rachak11
I only included college-hosted comps since MAA comps are very differently formatted, and IMO would easily beat the rest on quality since mathematicians around the world give questions, and so many problems are shortlisted, so IMO does release the IMO shortlist for people to practice. I also did not include the not as prestigious ones(like BRUMO, CUBRMC, and others), since most comps with very high quality questions are more prestigious(I did include other if you really think those questions are really good).

USAJMO Qualification
v_Enhance   82
N Apr 20, 2010 by BarbieRocks
Source: What, really? I made it?
I decided to make this a separate thread from the already existing USAMO thread.

YAYS I QUALIFIED FOR USAJMO AS AN EIGHTH GRADER :D :rotfl:

I thought my index was 190.5, so either the cutoff was WAY below our forum predictions or I actually did better than I think I did.

Maybe it was just that I had an unclear erasure on a problem which I changed the right answer to the wrong one and it got accepted by sheer dumb luck? :D

Wow, I had given up for the year, thinking that I had failed and that I could now slow down and start reading through AoPS Vol II. Now I have to cram like crazy for JMO. But you have no idea how broadly I'm smiling after feeling I died on the AIME. :D

Anyone else qualify, maybe with a low index like me?

USAMO Qualification Error???

Source: Lost AMC 12 scores
I got a 117 AMC 12 and 10 AIME (also 123 AMC 10), but I am not on the USAMO list, nor have I received a USAMO email, even though my index is a 217 (with 208.5 as the cutoff). I took the AMC 10A and AIME at my school but the AMC 12B at the local college. I have gotten a USAJMO qualification email. My teacher sent me a copy of the AIME school report for this year, so I did not make any bubbling errors. What should I do?

Hi,
I'm a freshman in high school that was wondering about your thoughts/opinions on the USAMO Index. I got a 100.5 on the AMC 12B and an 11 on AIME. This puts me up to an index of 210.5. Is that enough to pass?

Did anyone archive the AMC statistics from the old MAA website

N Apr 18, 2025 by programjames1
Hi everyone, this is the first time I'm writing something here(in comparison to the past 10 years of just looking at cool posts).

I'm looking for the amc statistics (all of the data) that was originally archived in this link

https://amc-reg.maa.org/reports/generalreports.aspx

It had some important data sets like: number of perfect scorers each year, the number of DHRs, item difficulty, difficulty by grade and gender, etc

If anyone archived the statistical data, pleeeeeaaase let me know!

thanks.

I remember seeing it on some dark corner of MAA by googling MAA AMC statistics or something, for me it looked like a wall of broken formatting and some buttons at the bottom that made a functional table.

that is the link that i found and was using for the past few years. Before that the format wasn't broken at all, but as time went by, the formatting broke but the data was still intact though. now the whole server is down and I worry if the data is irreversibly gone...

DHR is the top 1%. Since around 25K students take the AMC 12 every year, that means the number of DHRs is 250.

Also, I doubt that an organization as responsible and respectable as MAA that oversees such important exams would just let the test result statistics disappear. Maybe email them about the issue.

DHR is the top 1%. Since around 25K students take the AMC 12 every year, that means the number of DHRs is 250.

So I do know that the DHR is top 1%, but they had like an EXACT number of DHR students each year and also their last names and grades and all

They took down the servers, so you can't access the data even if the frontend has been archived.
