Reminder: this is the (American) AMC forum

DPatrick

Just a reminder that this is the American Mathematics Competitions forum. Items posted in this forum should be questions about, or problems from, the US AMC/AIME/USAMO contests.

In particular, please don't post problems from other contests and/or "general" problems in this forum. Instead use the appropriate high school or regional/national forum.

Thanks! Smile

I guess the IMO should be considered as final stage of the AMC process. Wink

That's an opinion. Personally, I don't believe the AMC 12 should be compared at all due to the difference in permissable topics. I also believe that the AMC 10 is easier than National Mathcounts.

Also, I think this has been discussed before. Plus, this isn't the thread to be discussing the topic in, especially since the last reply was months ago.
