美国数学竞赛(AMC)

是什么?

AMC是American Mathematics Competition美国数学竞赛的缩写,由美国数学协会(Mathematics Association of America)于1950年成立。

AMC不但是美国顶尖数学人才的人才库,麻省理工学院、斯坦福大学、卡内基梅隆大学等多所名校的申请页面上都要求学生填写自己的AMC竞赛成绩。AMC还扮演为美国培养世界数学奥林匹克(IMO)选手的重大责任,也是美国唯一一个用来选拔IMO国家队的竞赛体系。

AMC全球优秀奖获得者

在AMC备战中,老师和同学都给予了我很大帮助。IB数学平时的探索性课堂培养我们的思维能力,学校开的专门的数学竞赛课给了我们针对性的训练,而课后同学们相互探讨交流题目、相互学习,同样也对数学学习和竞赛准备有大益处。

AMC全球优秀奖获得者

我认为AMC这项竞赛与我现在所学的数学的差别还是比较大的,在我看来AMC似乎更注重在数学中的一些技巧,而我当下所学的IB数学则更注重于理解。

在准备的过程中难免会遇到一些自己无法解决的题目,这时候我就会首先向同学求助,我认为这是一个很好的方式,因为在与同学讨论的过程中很容易会产生新的解题方法。

同时,我也要感谢老师在cca时间为我们开设的培训课,为我们讲解题目,解答疑惑。

AMC全球卓越奖获得者

我认为ib的数学学习与我先前所认知的数学有一定的差异,他更加讲究逻辑思维与步骤性,这对于个人逻辑思维的提升非常有帮助。这次参加AMC的考试,整张试卷给我的感觉是非常赶,并且试卷的难度层层分级,需要参赛的选手根据自己的能力去划自己的答题时间。在进行考试练习的过程中,我们都会遇到难以解答的问题,我会在课余时间和竞赛课找到老师进行答疑,而同学之间也会约时间进行解题心得的交流。希望以后能有更多对数学有兴趣的同学参与到这一竞赛当中来,并且一直怀抱着对于数学的热忱。

英国数学奥林匹克竞赛

(BMO)是什么?

British Mathematical Olympiad(BMO)英国数学奥林匹克竞赛由成立于1996年的United Kingdom Mathematics Trust(UKMT)英国数学基金会组织的旗下针对高年级中学生难度最大的竞赛。主要侧重于考察学生应用数学基本概念到非一般题目的能力。

本土同学可以通过BMO角逐英国国际数学奥林匹克国家代表队的席位。因此,它作为一门含金量极高的数学竞赛,几乎是牛剑申请的标配竞赛。对于想要冲刺牛剑G5的同学来说,在BMO竞赛中获奖既是数学实力的直接体现也是对数学热情的最佳证明。

BMO全球荣誉奖获得者

这是我第一次参加BMO竞赛,但是在读ib之前我就已经知道这个竞赛了。作为英国最高级别的数学竞赛,含金量很高,它采用全部都为解答题的形式,考查了学生解题完整的思路。第一次考试差一分晋级,对于我自己来说这是非常遗憾的。但是也有了很大收获,希望明年能够继续努力晋级BMO2并获得一定奖项。

Eric Zhao

BMO全球优秀奖获得者

这次竞赛整体来说难度偏大,题目很少但是单题难度很高,需要很多的时间去思考。但是学校老师在我备考BMO时给了很大的帮助。如开设专门的竞赛班等。

对于学习数学,我认为最重要的不是去学习很多的新知识点,而是通过刷题等方式去巩固已经学过了的知识点,因为即使学了新知识,不能熟练的去运用到题目中的话,也是没有用的。

衷 心 祝 贺

向以上获奖的同学表示衷心的祝贺!今天的成绩是付出后的回报,今天的荣誉更是学习的动力。希望更多的同学能积极参加竞赛中来,锐意进取,更创佳绩!

Recently, the results of various international mathematics competitions have been announced one after another. The students at Guangzhou Foreign Language School ISA Wenhua IB Diploma Programme once again made great achievements. Among them, in the 2022 American Mathematics Competition (AMC), they won 1 Honor Roll of Distinction, 2 Certificate of Distinction and 6 Higher than the AIME Cutoff. In the British Mathematical Olympiad (BMO), they won1 Certificate of Distinction,1 Certificate of Merit and 1 invitation to sit the BMO Round 2!

What is American Mathematics Competition (AMC)?

AMC is not only a talent pool of top mathematics talents in the United States, the application websites of many prestigious universities such as MIT, Stanford University, and Carnegie Mellon University also require students to fill in their AMC competition results. AMC plays a major role in training candidatesfor the US International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) team, and it is the only competition system used by the USto select its IMO national team.

Julie Zhu

Winner of AMC Certificate of Distinction

In preparing for the AMC, my teachers and classmates have given me a lot of help. The inquiry-based classes of IB mathematics cultivate our thinking ability. The special mathematics competition classes provided by the school give us targeted training. After class, students discuss mathematics topics with each other and learn from each other. All of these brought great benefits to my learning of mathematics and preparation for the competition.

Winston Chen

Winner of AMC Certificate of Distinction

I think there is a big difference between the AMC and the mathematics I am learning now. In my opinion, AMC seems to pay more attention to problem solving skills in mathematics, while the IB mathematics I am studying focuses on the understanding of mathematics.

While preparing for AMC, it is inevitable that I would encounter some problems that I cannot solve. When this happened, I would first ask my classmates for help. I think this is a good way, because it becomes easy to produce new problem-solving solutions while discussing with classmates.

At the same time, I would like to thank our teacher for opening the competition training class during the CCA time, explaining the questions, and answering our questions.

Bryan Liao

Winner of Honor Roll of Distinction

I think the IB mathematics is different from the mathematics I have known before. It pays more attention to logical thinking and solutions by steps, which is very helpful for the cultivation of logical thinking skills. In the AMC, the whole test paper gave me the feeling that I was very rushed, and the difficulty of the test paper was graded. Participants need to dividetheir own answering time according to their ability. In the preparation and practice, we all encounter difficult questions. I would find teachers to answer my questions after class and during the competition training class, and the students also arrange time to share their experience in solving mathematics problems. I hope that more students who are interested in mathematics will participate in this competition in the future, and they will always have a passion for mathematics.

What is British Mathematical Olympiad (BMO)?

The British Mathematical Olympiad (BMO) is organized by the United Kingdom Mathematics Trust (UKMT) founded in 1996. It is the most difficult competition of UKMT for senior secondaryschool students. The focus is to examine students" ability to apply basic concepts of mathematics to solving mathematics problems.

Thelocal students can compete for a seat in the UK International Mathematical Olympiad team through BMO. As a highly valuable mathematics competition, it is almost a necessary competition for those pursuing Oxbridge applications. For students who want to sprint for Oxbridge and G5 universities, winning in the BMO is not only a direct showof their mathematical skills but also the best proof of their passion for mathematics.

Winner of BMO Certificateof Distinction

This is my first time participating in BMO, but I already knew about this competition before I took the IB programme. As the highest-level mathematics competition in the UK, it isa highly valuable one. It adopts the form of free response questions and tests the students" complete thoughtson answeringthe questions. It is a pity for me failing to enter Round 2 by one point. But I have also gained a lot. I hope that I will continue to work hard to enter BMO Round 2 and win some awards next year.

Eric Zhao

Winner of BMO Certificate of Merit

I am honoured to have achieved a good result in the BMO Round 1.

The overall difficulty of this competition is relatively high. There are only few questions, but the difficulty of each question is very high. It takes a lot of time to think before answering the questions. The teachers gave me a lot of help when I was preparing for the BMO, such as providing special competition training classes, etc.

While learning mathematics for the competition, I think the most important thing is not to learn a lot of new concepts, but to consolidate the concepts already learned by practicing questions, because if you cannot skilfully apply the new concepts to the questions, it is still useless even if you learn many new concepts.

Congratulations to the above award-winning students! Today"s results are rewards for and after hard work, and today"s honour is the motivation for further learning. We hope that more students will actively participate in the competition, forge ahead and achieve excellent results!
