This past Thursday, eight Kehillah students and one guest took part in the AMC-10/12 (American Math Contest). The AMC is designed to be challenging, and qualifiers will have a chance at the AIME (a month later), and from there one can qualify for the USA Math Olympiad team!

Our goal is much more modest. We strive to stretch our math horizons, and be inspired by the challenges. Students are exposed to subjects such as number theory, advanced geometry, combinatorics and probability.

We had fun practicing for it, and are looking forward to gathering again for similar challenges. All students are welcome to join. All that is required is curiosity and willingness to try new math problems. For additional details, please contact Dr. Baharav.
