I liked the structure of lessons, chapter reviews, exams, and projects. The projects were fun as well as the Kahoots. Overall, it was a great course.

(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /var/www/html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114The American Invitational Math Exam (AIME) is an invitational exam for top-scoring students from AMC 10 and AMC 12. It is a 15 question, 3-hour examination, each answer is an integer number between 0 to 999. Top scoring participants on the AIME are invited to take the USA Math Olympiads (USAMO) or USA Junior Math Olympiads (USAJMO). Starting in 2022, it is offered in February. AIME is the second exam in a series of competitions that eventually lead all the way to the International Mathematical Olympiad (see Invitational Competitions).

All of the courses have live and self-study formats. Live course students participate in interactive online live sessions. Both formats give access to the video recordings from the live sessions.
This is a free AIME practice test prepared by AlphaStar Academy. It is offered annually, a few months before the official competition. The test is similar in style to the official tests but does not contain any problems from past official competitions. Students will be able to take the test online in a timed exam environment, and then see their scores along with written solutions.
It contains four practice tests with solutions. They are written by AlphaStar Math Development Team, a group of expert students and alumni of AlphaStar Academy.
It contains the same four practice tests as in the book above, in an online format. Students will be able to take the practice tests online in a timed exam environment, and then see their scores along with written and video solutions.
These courses give students a boosting opportunity to review the materials, practice, and master their AIME test-taking strategies and problem-solving skills. They consist of selected essential topics, problem-solving, practice exams, solutions, and strategy sessions.
Fundamental courses help students master problem-solving techniques and skills for AIME in Algebra, Counting, Geometry, or Number Theory. They cover the whole contest curriculum.
Many of the questions and answers below are from the official AIME website.
It is a 15 question, 3-hour examination, each answer is an integer number between 0 to 999.
Qualification parameters for AIME vary with the results of the AMC 10/12 competitions. For AMC 10, invitations are issued to at least the top 2.5% of all scorers. For AMC 12, invitations are issued to at least the top 5% of all scorers. The exact cutoffs will depend on the difficulty of each competition. To see AIME cutoff scores and other historical data, you can check here.
Both AIME I (main AIME competition) and AIME II (alternate AIME competition) have the same number of questions, the same scoring, and the same rules for administration.
Invited students can only take one of these two exams. Check with your AMC 10/12 contest center to find out which one they are offering.
The AIME dates are moved from March to February. In 2022, the contest dates were as follows:
AIME I: Tuesday, Feb. 8, 2022
AIME II: Wednesday, Feb. 16, 2022
You can prepare by solving problems from past competitions or similar problems. Taking timed practice tests, going over the solutions, and analyzing your mistakes is also a great way to improve your exam performance. When analyzing your mistakes, you should create strategies to avoid them in the future. You can read this article to learn how making mistakes while practicing can actually help you avoid them in official contests.
AlphaStar offerings contain problems, tests, and exam strategies for AIME, developed by AlphaStar Academy faculty and development team. To see all of our offerings, see the AIME Preparation section above.
I liked the structure of lessons, chapter reviews, exams, and projects. The projects were fun as well as the Kahoots. Overall, it was a great course.
The study material was sufficient and is easy to understand. I also enjoy how the study material is formatted, so it is easy to know what you are doing, and how you are doing.
The course provided a lot of relevant practice and helped me pass Bronze on my first try, after only 7 months of learning java!
If I have the chance, I would like to take another course in a more advanced level in perhaps a different topic later with this teacher. He was clear and instructive and I really liked him.
Dr. Jennifer is an excellent teacher. She is one of my favorite teachers and I hope I can continue learning with her. She teaches the material very well and always is ready to answer one of my questions. I wish I have Dr. Jennifer next year too!
The course was fun and the instructor was very helpful. I especially enjoyed the break days because they were relaxing and allowed me to catch up on homework assignments.
It was fun to learn and it make me like coding more.
The Online classes were great and there were no real problems with the quality of the videos or screen share. The live classes really helped me interact with the teacher and also get to know him better with the activity days.
He detailed everything we needed to know and answered all our questions.
I think that the course overall was great and I enjoyed the classes
I do think that the homework problems were sufficient to understand the content clearly, like for the set of analytic geometry 1 and 2
Isaac Browne is an excellent teacher who explains content very thoroughly and makes learning fun by engaging the students.
The best computer course I have taken. One of the best teachers I have had.
The instructor did a great job! AlphaStar seems like one of the best places to learn coding/USACO.
I highly recommend this course if you are a beginner in coding and computer science. I am excited to take their USACO preparatory classes as well. The course is informative and in depth, which I very much enjoyed.
Zachary is a great teacher. He explains things well and his work is organized really well! Also, one of his go-to phrases is, \Sweet!\ I think it's a fantastic word so I've adopted it too.
I enjoyed the live courses. The LMS was cool.
I liked how this class showed us how to approach problems, and not just algorithms. We had time to consider how to solve problems and discuss it before going to the actual solution.
I liked that I got to learn a lot about Computer Science, and I liked how the teachers and other peers made a positive learning environment. I also liked how the exercises and homework got me pulled into coding.
The most enjoyable parts about the course was being able to see the end results of codes that I worked on for a long time. In this course, we learned so many different subjects in such a short time which leaves us with a lot of things to explore and be innovative about.
This course in my experience has been extremely good. From the organization to the quality of teaching, it has saved a great deal of time and has allowed me to learn so much. My instructor Kyle Fu has been very supportive, and I recommend him to anyone interested in this course.
The course helped me understand how to approach different types of problems in java through the various lessons, problems, and projects. The course framework is designed well, and the instructor ensured that everyone understood the concepts before moving on.
The instructor was kind, and clearly explained the concept so we could understand it better. She was encouraging and enthusiastic as she taught the concept.
The instructor really tries to encourage everyone to participate and takes all ideas/comments and either takes or improves on them. I really appreciate how much he shows that he cares about his students and how they learn, as well as taking everything they say seriously.
