This class is ideal for a student who scores in the 85-125 range on the AMC 10. Students who are just beginning with the AMC 10 and are not likely to score this high should start with our Introduction series of classes. Those who are already consistently scoring over 125 should move on to our Intermediate series of classes.
This course does not require a textbook. Many students and top math teams use our Introduction series of texts and our Art of Problem Solving Volume 1 to prepare for the AMC 10.
Future dates for this course have not been scheduled yet.
