AMC 12 Final Fives

This course is designed specifically to tackle the challenging final five problems of the AMC 12, the first in the series of contests that determine the United States team for the International Mathematics Olympiad. Many prestigious universities also consider AMC scores as part of the college application process. This course teaches you the tactics needed for the last five problems, which often determine the high scorers in the exam. Our sessions will include in-depth discussions of these types of problems, as well as unique, effective strategies to approach them. By the end of the course, students will not only have a clear understanding of these complex problems. This course includes a practice competition focusing on the last five problems of the AMC 12.

I really enjoyed this class! This online classroom provided all of the clarification I needed for Prealgebra. The challenge problems had me actually thinking and Alcumus really helped me practice the strategies that I was taught. I learned many, MANY things this year and I now understand things that I never understood before. The classes were very fun and engaging and went at the perfect pace. I also enjoyed having the transcripts to refer to when I had to miss a class or was in need of rereading some information that I'd forgotten. All in all, this was a SUPER great class and I am looking forward to joining Prealgebra 2!
