Try Out To Enter A Prestigious World Math Competition in Taiwan and 12-Week Training:

If your child enjoys solving math problems, he/she is invited to try out for the USA-Silicon Valley teams that will compete in an International Math Contest in Taiwan in July 25-30, 2012. It is a unique opportunity for

Grades 3-9 students to have an academic and a cultural experience with children from around the world.

Having participated in International Math Competitions for the past 7 years, the USA-Silicon Valley teams have won dozens of honorable awards and received a lot of press coverage. At last year’s IMC 2011 held in Indonesia, the teams won Champion and 2nd runner-up in team awards and all 8 individual awards.

 

 

The competition is composed of two divisions:

1) Lower Division (born after 7/20/98 and grade 6 or lower)         Round1 samples               Round2  samples

2) Upper Division (born after 7/20/95 and grade 9 or lower)         Round1 samples               Round2  samples

 

 

Student who scores in the top 10% in the 2) IMC tryout will be invited to go through a 12-week intensive training. Another test will be administered to determine the final students representing the USA teams to compete in Taiwan. For these students, all expenses (except airfare) for room & board, and local tours in Taiwan during the six days will be covered.

 

Qualify for Free Summer Camp Training in Hong Kong Conducted by IMAS

International Mathematics Assessments for Schools (IMAS) is a world-class mathematics assessment test organized by IMAS Executive Council. It offers 2 rounds of contests, followed by a summer camp in Hong Kong.

 

For the students who performed well in both rounds of IMAS contests, a free Summer Camp will be held in July at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. This is a good opportunity for the participants to promote friendships with students from different countries and learn mathematics from world-class instructors. Free training, meals, and accommodation (except airfare) will be provided for the invited participants.

 

 

Tryout Awards:

From the IMAS Round 1 tryout results, the top 3 students in each grade (G3-9) will receive a trophy.
