Special AMC 8 Seminar (Version B)

This course is a special two-day, 5-hour seminar to prepare for the AMC 8, which is the premier fall math contest for middle school students. The AMC 8 also gives students early problem-solving experience that is valuable towards the high-school level AMC 10 and AMC 12 contests, which are the first stage in determining the United States team for the International Math Olympiad. In this course, students learn problem solving strategies and test-taking tactics over two lessons — during each lesson, class will meet over a 3-hour period, with a half-hour break in the middle. The course also includes a practice AMC 8 test. This course covers entirely different problems than the Special AMC 8 Seminar (Version A).

This was a really great class. I learned a lot, and it gave me a really strong and general understanding of math. Im blowing my math class away in school and I understanding topics much faster. This was a great class and I hope it helps other people as much as it helped me.
