Overview
This is the continuation course of the AMC8 course, and the goal is to bridge the gap between AMC8 and AMC10. Students planning to get a competitive score in AMC8 or to participate in AMC10 for the first time to test water are all good candidates for this course. More advanced math knowledge and problem-solving skills will be covered. Problems in this course are becoming more challenging, and hopefully, students will enjoy cracking out more impossible problems.
