AMC test consists of test research and development, test customization and unified marking of test papers. Fully entrust the professor of mathematics department of Nebraska-Lincoln University, who is famous for mathematics, to lead experts and scholars to set up a committee with full responsibility. The members of the Committee are all from the top universities in the United States, such as MIT, Harvard University, Princeton University, etc., and they are all in the same research plan.
Over the years, AMC has also played an important role in training athletes for the United States to participate in the World Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). Through a series of tests, such as AMC 8, AMC 10, AMC 12, AIME, AMC researchers find out outstanding students to participate in the American Mathematical Olympiad (USAMO), and then select 24 to 30 elites from dozens of American states to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad Summer Camp (MOSP). Then in the summer camp, six players were selected to participate in IMO through the test.
AMC is not only a talent pool of top mathematics talents in the United States, but also provides schools with an understanding of applicants' academic performance and performance evaluation in mathematics subjects. AMC has successfully got many students into ideal schools because of its excellent test scores. By designing rigorous test questions, we can stimulate candidates' problem-solving ability and cultivate their interest in mathematics.

(Professor G. Smith, AMC8 of Santa Fe Community College is a math test for students in Grade One and Grade Two, with 25 multiple-choice questions and 40 minutes. The purpose of the test is to improve students' ability to solve mathematical exercises. This test provides some teaching and evaluation of mathematical concepts at the middle school level; Its topics not only range from easy to difficult, but also cover a wider range of practical applications of mathematics. Some of these topics are quite challenging, and the degree is higher than that of ordinary middle school mathematics. So it's a good math experience. Since 2008, calculators have been banned in the AMC8 exam. In addition, students with good grades will be invited to take the AMC 10 exam.
AMC8 has a special purpose: I hope these topics can be used in the practical teaching of middle school mathematics courses. The AMC8 test can stimulate students' potential and increase their understanding of mathematics. In addition to AMC8, the next test can stimulate students' interest in math courses.
In addition, AMC8 can promote and inspire students to take a more positive attitude towards mathematics learning and stimulate students' interest in mathematics. For learners, AMC8 contributes to the understanding and progress of mathematical concepts. But it is important to take the initiative to learn such opportunities. Sincerely welcome students from Grade One and Grade Two to take the AMC8 exam. No matter where you are, as long as you are in the second grade of junior high school or below, you are eligible to take the AMC8 exam.

Scoring method: get 1 point for a correct answer; Don't fasten your seat belt if the answer is wrong.
Full score ○ 25 AMC 10 is a math test for students in Grade One and Grade Three of Senior High School, with 25 multiple-choice questions and 75 minutes. Mathematical problems involving the understanding of calculus concepts. Calculators are allowed in AMC 10 exam (except engineering calculators). The main purpose of AMC 10 is to stimulate students' interest in mathematics through multiple-choice questions and develop their talents in mathematics. The test questions are from easy to difficult. Students who participate in AMC 10 should not find it difficult to find that the questions in the test are very challenging, but the questions in the test will not exceed the students' learning scope. This test hopes that every candidate can enjoy mathematics from the competition.
The topic selected as AMC 10 puts forward some important mathematical concepts. Sometimes, the topic will add some subtleties and puzzles to the options, such as some common calculation errors or problems that can be solved quickly but are traps. Therefore, after the baptism of this exam, it is like getting the knack of solving mathematical problems, and there will be great gains.
. Another special purpose of AMC 10 is to discover some students who are talented in mathematics and let the school pay attention to the existence of these students; Excellent mathematicians are discovered, encouraged and trained in this way.
AMC 10 is not the limit of self-math challenge. It is an excellent talent to be able to gain insight into mathematical knowledge and calculate quickly, but some mathematicians don't think mathematics is that simple. In addition, the format of multiple-choice questions is conducive to eliminating wrong answers and getting correct answers, but this is only a problem-solving skill. Therefore, it is the significance of AMC 10 to know your own mathematical ability and challenge upward. In short, for some students with unsatisfactory math scores, it does not mean that they are inferior to other students in math ability or understanding; The outstanding student representatives proved their advantages in mathematics. This test is a competition developed for all students who love mathematics.

At present, China has carried out this examination activity in some developed areas.
China's official does not recognize the status of examinations, which is purely local and folk behavior;
However, in the annual college entrance examination self-enrollment interview, key universities still recognize this test result certificate. AMC 12 is a math test for middle school students, with 25 multiple-choice questions and 75 minutes. Mathematical problems involving the understanding of calculus concepts. Calculators are allowed in AMC 12 exam, except engineering calculators.
The main purpose of AMC 12 is to stimulate students' interest in mathematics and open their talents in mathematics through multiple-choice questions. If students can practice in advance, they will definitely improve their interest in mathematics. Most importantly, students can participate in the practice of mathematics collectively, which is far better than studying alone. Especially under the guidance of teachers, you can learn how to allocate time to solve problems. Students who take part in AMC 12 should not find it difficult to find that the questions in the exam are very challenging.
Because the scope of AMC 12 test covers a lot of knowledge and ability, the results are different. For the honor roll, it is possible to get the honor roll if the score is 150 ~ 100 or more accurately, the top 3% of the global candidates' scores. Compared with students and schools, grades are very important; Students and schools with the highest regional and local scores will be announced. MAA headquarters will evaluate these achievements every year and send the evaluation results to the schools that have participated in this test. Students can use this to compare their grades with the differences in the past.
Another special purpose of AMC 12 is to help some students discover their talents in mathematics and make the school pay attention to their talents and existence. AMC 12 is a verification test organized by MAA American Mathematical Association, and the highest point of a series of verification tests is IMO International Mathematical Olympiad.
