Deep Divers: AMC-8 Level

Students in our Deep Divers program have already learned many in-depth contest math topics – usually those covered in the “Introduction to” series of Art of Problem Solving books. Our sessions are designed to identify and fill the gaps in students’ knowledge and understanding of those math topics. The program is split into two semesters, each covering several topics in Algebra, Geometry, Number Theory, and Combinatorics at AMC-8 and State MathCounts level of difficulty. Specifically, the topics include:

• Intro to Polynomials
• Intro to Sequences and Functions
• Properties of Triangles
• Properties of Circles
• Counting Techniques
• Probability Techniques
• Base Number Systems

Our teams compete in Purple Comet Middles School contest. Most students also compete in AMC-8 and join MathCounts teams at their schools.
