2020年11月24日 · Also, AMC 8, Math Kangaroo, MOEMS, CML, Mathleague, and any other contest given to elementary or middle school kids aside from Mathcounts are low-stakes contests that really are just practice for the important contests later, like MathCounts or AMC 10/12.

2020年12月24日 · This. Taking Algebra is a big advantage. Taking Geometry is a huge one for AMC 8. Only being in pre-Algebra isn't going to cut it for solving most of the problems.

2025年2月8日 · The AMC 8 is meant to test math skills through 8th grade. A 7th grader in Algebra 1 is essentially taking 8th grade/9th grade math. They should be in a place to do well on the AMC 8. I would be more surprised if a kid who is strong in math did as well as kids who have been in programs preparing for math competitions.

2020年12月3日 · Normal parents should have no reasons to help their kids cheat. Math Kangaroo showed that many parents will help their kids cheat, even on low stakes contests.
