The program offers a unique opportunity to delve into advanced mathematical concepts and problem-solving techniques specifically tailored for math contests, taught in a collaborative environment at NYU.
The New York Math Circle (NYMC) Math Contest Prep Program offers high school students an intensive, one-week day camp experience focused on developing advanced problem-solving skills for mathematics competitions. The curriculum delves into topics such as Probability, Counting, Elementary Number Theory, and Geometry, among others, essential for contests like the AMC 10. Students engage in daily sessions at NYU, working through problems and identifying key mathematical concepts. The program aims to challenge students with mathematics beyond the typical curriculum, encouraging them to solve original problems, create their own, and apply existing knowledge in new ways. It's designed to foster logical thinking and problem-solving skills in a collaborative and friendly atmosphere. The program is not for tutoring or test prep in the traditional sense, but rather an exploration of deeper mathematical understanding.
A typical day involves intensive instruction sessions from 10am to 3pm, where students work through contest problems and explore advanced mathematical topics.
This program is best for high school students with strong arithmetic skills and some basic algebra experience who are looking to develop advanced problem-solving skills for math contests.
