AMC Math Competition
Next week, math team will hold American Mathematics Competition on Tuesday, February 7.
American Mathematics Competition (AMC 10/12) is the biggest national math competition. It is a 25 question, 75 minutes contest which does not require calculus or any fancy formulas. Mostly it tests participants' creativity on problem solving. Students with top scores could enter second round——American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME). The test is
INTENSIVE, hard, and mind blowing. A good AMC or AIME score is much more powerful than a good SAT math score for
college admission especially when you are seeking a tech major. But most importantly, it is a lot of
FUN.
To register or have any questions, please contact Ms. Cox.
Support Darlington Math Team, join AMC, enjoy the fun of problem solving!
