Our Uniqueness

We have a long history of close collaboration with theMAA‘sAmerican Mathematics Competitions(AMC), which are dedicated to strengthening the mathematical capabilities of our nation’s youth, and are the first of a series of competitions in high schoolmathematicsthat determine the United States team for theInternational Mathematical Olympiad(IMO). There are many math competitions in the United States. Of those,only AMC → AIME → USAMO sequence would take you to the IMO (International Math Olympiad), the highest level math competition for high school students in the world.

We are only one in the Washington DC metropolitan area to offer elementary, middle, and high-school level competition math courses. Our students have received top scores and awards at prestigious national and math competitions.We have collected all AMC8/10/12 and AIME Official Problems and Official Solutions as shown in the article ”American Mathematics Competitions (AMC)Materials,” which have formed our “big data” system, a golden resource for our students, who are the ultimate beneficiaries.
