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

1 Algebra and Counting
2 Number Theory and Geometry

In general, this course has been a delight for me and I'm sure the same goes for the other students. It used thought-out analyses of challenging problems from the AMC 10 test. The class was taught excellently by an intelligent instructor who went through and explained each problem step-by-step. This course was fun, easy to understand, logical, and above all helpful! I would definitely take another course by AoPS next time I get the chance.
