| Looking for a challenging geometry text? Preparing for MATHCOUNTS or the AMC exams? Check out Art of Problem Solving's Introduction to Geometry by Richard Rusczyk. |
Math Jams are free online classes hosted by Art of Problem Solving for a variety of purposes. Some Math Jams are improvisational problem solving sessions, some are informational sessions about prominent programs, or college admissions, or other topics of interest to our students. Other Math Jams include reviews of major contests, such as the USAMTS or the AMC series of tests. Instructors employ the same Virtual Classroom for the Math Jams as used in our more structured online classes.
Participants must be logged in as Art of Problem Solving Community members to access the Math Jams. Click here to login or set up a new account. The Math Jams and Community membership are free.

Each Math Jam runs around 60 minutes; the classroom opens 10 minutes before class begins. Space is limited and allocated on a first come, first served basis.
The difficulties above range from 1 (beginning students, MATHCOUNTS level questions) to 10 (suitable for students training for the USA Mathematical Olympiad).
When the classroom for a Math Jam is open, the button
will appear next to the class in the schedule if you are logged in. Click on
the button or go directly to the Virtual
Classroom to join the class.
