AMC8 & Gauss Math Contest Bootcamp (12h)

Course Description

Format: 12 hours (4 × 3h sessions) Class Size: 6–15 students Tuition: $33/hour Schedule: Designed to finish before the official Gauss contest in early May Why This Bootcamp? AMC8 and Gauss are the first major math contests for Grades 6–8 and serve as the perfect entry point into North America’s competition pathway. • Strengthen logical reasoning & problem-solving • Build confidence for higher-level contests (CIMC, CSMC, AMC10, Euclid) • Provide competitive advantage for future academic portfolios • Help students train “contest thinking” not taught in school math This bootcamp delivers maximum results in minimum time. Course Goals By the end of the 12-hour program, students will: • Master essential AMC8/Gauss contest strategies • Improve speed, accuracy, and endurance under time pressure • Understand classic problem types and traps • Build problem-solving frameworks applicable across contests • Gain confidence for contest day through timed drills & mock exams Course Modules (12 Hours Total) • Module 1 — Contest Fundamentals & Number Sense • Module 2 — Algebraic Thinking & Patterns • Module 3 — Geometry & Spatial Reasoning • Module 4 — Logical Reasoning & Full Mock Exam Competition Pathway (From Now to University Applications) Step 1 — AMC8 & Gauss (Grades 6–8) ⬇ Step 2 — AMC10 & CIMC (Grades 8–10) ⬇ Step 3 — AMC12, CSMC, Euclid (Grades 10–12) ⬇ Step 4 — PDE/Advanced Contests (Optional) ⬇ Step 5 — University Applications (U.S. Common App Activities, Canadian portfolios, STEM scholarships) Early contest preparation significantly strengthens a student’s academic profile.
