AMC/AIME

A 25 question, 75 minute contest held in February for all high school students. AMC 10 is for students in grades 10 and under, while the AMC 12 is for everyone. 10th graders may take both AMC's.

Through the AMC's, students who attain a certain score will be eligible to take the AIME, a 15 question, 3 hour long contest. Their cumulative scores from the AMC and the AIME can qualify them to take the USAMO (6 proof/essay questions over 2 days, totaling 9 hours), which can then lead to the summer program MOSP for the top 24 students in the nation. Finally, the top 6 students at MOSP will be sent to the IMO (International Math Olympiad), which will be held in Mexico for 2005.

Test Dates:

February 1, 2005: AMC12
March 8, 2005: AIME
