AMC 10 Contest Preparation Class

         The American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) consist of a series of increasingly difficult tests — the AMC 8, the AMC 10/12, the AIME, and the USA(J)MO — for students from middle school and high school designed to challenge bright students beyond their normal mathematical curriculum and build critical thinking and problem solving skills that will help them throughout their academic career and their lives. The AMC 10 — a 25-question multiple choice contest — serves as most students’ first exposure to high school-level math contests.

      Good AMC scores will also enhance admission opportunities for students to elite colleges.

Time: 1:30 to 3:30pm, Saturday, 9/3 to 12/10 (No class on 11/26.)

AMC 8 training class will start soon. 初中数学竞赛训练班

The AMC 8 contest is for students in the sixth through eighth grade, although accelerated fourth and fifth graders can also take part.

AMC 8 is 25 questions in length, and is multiple-choice with no penalty for guessing. The contest takes 40 minutes. A student’s score is the number of problems correctly solved.

Why participate in AMC-8 (quoted from AMC-8 website)

A special purpose of the AMC 8 is to demonstrate the broad range of topics available for the junior high school mathematics curriculum.

Additional purposes of the AMC 8 are to promote excitement, enthusiasm and positive attitudes towards mathematics and to stimulate interest in continuing the study of mathematics beyond the minimum required for high school graduation. Developmentally, junior high school students are at a point where attitudes toward school and learning, and perceptions of themselves as learners of mathematics are solidified. It is important that they be provided opportunities that foster the development of positive attitudes towards mathematics and positive perceptions of themselves as learners of mathematics. The AMC 8 provides one such opportunity.

Test date: 11/17/2016

—————————————————–

The American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) is the oldest and most prestigious nationwide mathematics competition in the United States. It started in 1950 and it is and has been the exclusive pathway for a student to advance to the USA Mathematical Olympiad.

Activities like the American Mathematics competitions organized by the Mathematical Association of America allow and encourage students to excel in an academic sphere. The contest is a rewarding experience where mathematical curiosity and skill are stimulated.  AMC is designed to inspire an interest in mathematics that will lead to academic success, scholarship and a rewarding career.

Many well-known colleges and universities request scores from AMC contests at the higher grade levels and use them for recruiting and admissions.

All of them have received many other amazing national level awards, too.

教授數學課的三位年青人Nelson,Kevin和Matthew都很優秀,并富有教學經驗(Kevin在A star和春暉教过暑期班,Nelson和Matthew在春暉教育有數年的教學經驗)。Nelson和Kevin进了美国国家数学奥赛集训队(MOSP,全美50人)。三位都进了MIT Primes(全美17人)和USAMO,还得過许多其他国家级的竞赛大奖。Matthew進了(PROMYS,80人)

 


数学竞赛 Math Contest training camp starts from next week

Counting and Probability 与Number Theory 是各种数学竞赛的必要知识。而且这些都是学校数学没有包括进来的。在暑期修好这两门课,可以为以后的数学竞赛学习打下良好基础。

教授这两门课的两位优秀年青人Nelson和Kevin 不仅自己都进了美国国家数学奥赛集训队(MOSP,全美50人),和MIT Primes(全美17人),还都有其他国家级的竞赛大奖。他们都富有教学经验。(Kevin在A star 教过暑期班,Nelson在春晖教育有数年的教学经验。)

Counting and Probability

A topic ranging from the number of digits used to number the pages in a 100 page book, to the probability of rolling doubles on two dice. This topic is prevalent in middle and high school competitions, including Mathcounts and AMC, as well as being a part of high school Algebra 2/Trigonometry and Pre-Calculus courses. After taking the class students will have mastered and will be able to solve commonly found problems on these competitions.

Number Theory

A topic rarely covered in high school, from divisibility rules to prime numbers, this topic appears on Mathcounts and AMC problems quite often. Mastering this often helps with understanding more abstract math concepts in high school and college, such as in Calculus and beyond. This also will touch on several proof methods, such as proof by contradiction and induction, which are essential for proof-level mathematics competitions such as BAMO or USA(J)MO.

如何选择SAT或ACT的最佳考场

不知道哪件事对你来说是更困难的:是回答棘手的多选题呢,还是就在等着这个伤脑筋的考试即将开始的时候你却想上厕所了。你想也许你现在就应该去一下厕所。可惜呀,你却不知道卫生间在哪……

标准化考试是令人非常紧张的事,比如SAT 1推理考试和ACT考试,学生都想尽量避免这些考试。考试时间长达几小时,虽说在漫长的折磨中会有些短暂休息。选择适合的考场会非常有助于你少分心,因而可把更多精力集中在考试上。一般来说,最好的考场就是你感觉最舒服的那个地方。以下五点可以帮你理解什么样的是好考场。

SAT

1.了解你的考场

避免选新地点,因为你要紧张地去找考场房间和卫生间位置。强烈建议要先熟悉各个位置,万一到时急于上厕所呢。方法就是如果可以的话,选择在自己学校的考场考试,或在不同时候多去几次考场去熟悉校园环境。

2.充足睡眠,好好休息

考试前一晚要休息好。充足的休息与清醒的头脑,比靠咖啡因强打精神要好多了。仅仅一晚充足睡眠,人就可以从绝望的状态变成充满希望。考试前夕要避免饮用大量咖啡。对一些人来说,饮用大量咖啡会使人不能享受放松的睡眠。早晨要少喝刺激性饮料,比如大量咖啡或效果很强的功能饮料。你已经够紧张了;没必要再加重紧张感。

3. 啊,不!你又来考了!

选一个你碰不到同学们的考场,因为这能减免你已有的焦虑——你在他们眼里是什么样的学术水平。了解到你所认识的同学们比你的考分高的时候,你就会很容易被吓到。与陌生人在一个考场考试还有一个好处就是你以后可能再也不会碰见这些人了。

4. 带些零食

有些人在紧张的时候就会饿。脑力活动,尤其是高强度的思考活动,是需要能量的。你的大脑想要糖吃,所以你可能会突然发现在考试中就饥肠辘辘。以防你需要补充能量,所以带一些零食。

5.海水不可斗量(或分数不代表一切,或不以成败论英雄)

在内心深处你要深知标准化考试分数仅体现了某些方面的智慧,并不能代表你在学术和生活中其他方面的成就。体积是在三维空间里的一种表示空间大小的度量方法。长方体的体积是通过长乘宽乘高计算得出的。三个数据都是需要的。你在标准化考试上的表现只是你能力的一方面而已。分数并不能体现出你的创造力、创作力、适应能力、建造和修理东西的能力,以及团队领导力和拥抱他人的能力。


Competition Math for Middle School Students

每一位中學生都可以通过训练來提高其分析问题和解决问题的能力,不仅仅是解题的技巧。其他学科的学习也能得到帮助。数学竞赛成绩也是将来申请理想大学的敲门砖。

Every student can compete in math contests. AMC 8 and Mathcounts require no more than middle school math. Taking part in contests will help students develop problem solving skills that last through all of life.

The teacher, Matthew, is excellent at inspiring and motivating young students toward math. All of his students last year liked him and enjoyed his class a lot!
