AoPS Wiki:Competition ratings
This page shall help you to find mathematical competition problems at your level, i.e. not trivial but also not totally impossible for you. If you have gained some experience with competitions already I suggest you help us make the difficulty rankings more accurate. I suggest to rate on a scale from 1 to 10 where 1 is the easiest level, i.e. early AMC and 10 is hardest level, i.e. China IMO Team Selection Test. When considering problem difficulty put heavy emphasis on problem-solving aspects and less so on technical skill requirements.
