AMC 8

International Math Olympiads

Course Overview

The American Math Competition (AMC) is the first of a series of contests in high school mathematics for the USA that serves as the first stage of the International Mathematical Olympiad conducted by the Mathematical Association of America (MAA). It tests critical thinking, problem-solving, and computational skills, offering a strong foundation for students pursuing STEM fields.

AMC 8 provides an opportunity for students in middle school up to Grade 8 to develop positive attitudes towards mathematics and consolidate school learning. CourseLeap’s AMC 8 course builds a robust foundation in math, improving problem solving skills and equipping students to face the challenges of the contest as well as high school math and beyond.

For students who are completely new to IMOs we offer Art of Problem Solving, a foundational course designed to build essential problem-solving skills.

The clarity of the concepts and the motivation given by the teachers is definitely an X factor of CourseLeap. Regular homework and inclusion of past paper problems was really beneficial. When I was attending my AMC 8 course they were very receptive to the feedback they asked us to give. The classes are extremely fun and interactive, and you really enjoy math when you attend these classes.

The course was administered brilliantly on the virtual platform, and I was able to thoroughly understand all concepts. This course has influenced my learning abilities since I now have a better knowledge of how to improve on certain modules by completing more practice papers and revisiting the formulae. The doubt clarification session helped me grasp the various methods for solving a sum even more, and it was a lot of fun debating how to solve a sum with my other students.

I think that the AMC 8 prep course at CourseLeap really helped me understand math beyond just learning formulas and doing the same type of sums over and over again. There were no two sums alike, and there were various ways we could solve a sum. As an ICSE student, we usually do math straight from the textbook and don’t really do anything challenging. I think this opened up my mind on how to use math in different situations.

This course has taught me to solve questions with another perspective. The instructors explained topics very well and all modules were perfectly planned making this course fun and enjoyable. The HW and mock papers gave us ideas on how the questions would be. The doubt clarification sessions cleared all my doubts. The most fun moments in my journey were learning tricks to solve questions and not having to do long methods.

I feel that this course has been really helpful and has opened my mind to a new way to solve each and every problem. The instructors have been really helpful, and the Doubt Clarification sessions are one of the best parts of the course. The Homework and Mock Papers are helpful to practise concept clarification and timing for the papers. All in all I am very happy with the course.

The course really boosted my learning in math overall. The instructors taught very well and were very helpful, the modules and mock tests made for good and consistent practice. The doubt sessions were also helpful.
