Extended information

The AMC American Mathematics Competition was established in 1950 by the Mathematics Association of America. The test questions range from easy to difficult, so that students of any level can feel the challenge, and can also screen out those with unique talents. This competition was developed for all students who love mathematics.

AMC conducts simultaneous testing in more than 20 countries and regions around the world, including Canada, Singapore, Japan, Hungary, Greece, Turkey, and France. This test has been recommended by American middle school principals as one of the main activities every year. Over the years, AMC has also played an important role in cultivating World Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) athletes for the United States.

AMC researchers use a series of tests such as AMC8, AMC10, AMC12, and AIME to identify top students to participate in the United States Mathematics Olympiad (USAMO), and then select 24 to 30 elites from dozens of states across the United States to participate. Mathematical Olympiad Summer Camp (MOSP). Then six team members will be selected through testing in the summer camp to participate in IMO.
