Special AIME Problem Seminar B

This class is a special 5-hour weekend seminar to prepare for the AIME, which is the second in the series of tests used to determine the United States team at the International Math Olympiad. Many top colleges also request AIME scores as part of the college application process. In this course, students learn problem solving strategies and test-taking tactics relevant to the AIME. The course also includes a practice AIME test.

Who Should Take?

This class is appropriate for students who are hoping to pass the AIME. If a student already consistently scores above 10 on the AIME, this class is probably not necessary, and if a student is unlikely to answer more than 1 or 2 questions correctly, then that student should start with some of our Introduction series of classes. The material for this class is distinct from the Special AIME Problem Seminar A.

Lessons

Lesson 1 Algebra and Counting
Lesson 2 Number Theory and Geometry

As the first online course I've ever taken, I can say without doubt that it has been a tremendously great experience. I know that a lot people that took Intro to Number Theory were still in grade school, but taking it as a senior in high school, I still feel challenged and frankly I don't feel the same kind of embarrassment I feel in a normal classroom when I don't understand the material or want to ask a question. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject which made it all the more motivating to learn. Props to AoPS for such excellent classes!
