AMC 10 and AMC 12 Testing February 2012



ECAE is again offering a test site for the AMC 10 or AMC 12 tests this year for students whose schools don’t offer them the tests. ECAE’s test site will be available for both the AMC 10 and the AMC 12 on the “A” date (Tuesday 7 February 2012) and on the “B” date (Wednesday 22 February 2012) for those tests. Anyone not able to test through their own school who would like to test with ECAE is invited to join the group. Testing through ECAE will be at Edina Community Center room 351, with the room reserved from 4:00pm to 6:00pm on each of those dates for these seventy-five minute tests, with testing beginning as soon as possible after 4:00pm to accommodate students coming from other school districts.

AMC 8, AMC 10, and AMC 12 Testing



 ECAE offers the AMC 8, AMC 10, AMC 12, and AIME for those students who are unable to take these exams at their school.

    The American Mathematics Competitions:

  •       Is dedicated to the goal of strengthening the mathematical capabilities of our nation’s youth. We believe that one way to meet this goal is to identify, recognize and reward excellence in mathematics through a series of national contests.
  • What happens before and after the AMC Contests can have lasting educational value. Talents will be enhanced if one practices beforehand, by working through previous examinations, by participating in math leagues and, most importantly, by studying mathematics more intensely than one normally does in school.

The AMC 10 is a 25 question, 75 minute multiple choice examination in secondary school mathematics containing problems which can be understood and solved with pre-calculus concepts. Calculators are not allowed starting in 2008.

The main purpose of the AMC 10 is to spur interest in mathematics and to develop talent through the excitement of solving challenging problems in a timed multiple-choice format. The problems range from the very easy to the extremely difficult. Students who participate in the AMC 10 should find that most of the problems are challenging but within their grasp. The contest is intended for everyone from the average student at a typical school who enjoys mathematics to the very best student at the most special school.
