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 have a clear understanding of these complex problems. This course includes a practice competition focusing on the last five problems of the AMC 12.

Introduction to Algebra A is an amazing class. AoPS has made me truly love mathematics. It covers the course material at a pace that allows you to learn a ton and not be bored by reciting stuff over and over. The explanations are clear and the problems are challenging and fun. I like it so much, I'm already signed up for Introduction to Algebra B.
