Course Overview

The AIME is a challenging, invitation-only examination designed to identify and challenge students with exceptional mathematical problem-solving abilities. It is offered exclusively to students who excelled and achieved top-tier scores on the AMC 10 and/or AMC 12. It serves as the crucial second step in the series of contests that lead to the United States of America Mathematical Olympiad (USAMO) and USA Junior Mathematical Olympiad (USAJMO), and eventually the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).

The AIME covers the exact same high school curriculum as the AMC 10 and AMC 12—including algebra, geometry, trigonometry, number theory, and combinatorics—but the questions are significantly more difficult. They require a deep synthesis of multiple concepts and highly advanced analytical thinking, while still explicitly excluding calculus.

Our online AIME tutoring program provides the targeted, advanced quantitative knowledge required to achieve a top-tier score. By preparing effectively with us, students can significantly boost their chances of qualifying for the prestigious USAMO or USAJMO and stand out on their college applications.

What You Will Learn

Topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Algebra: Covers the full range of high school algebra, including introductory, intermediate, and advanced topics.
  • Geometry: Encompasses the entire high school geometry curriculum, spanning introductory to advanced levels, including both Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry.
  • Trigonometry: Includes the complete high school trigonometry syllabus—six trigonometric functions and their inverses, graphs of trigonometric functions, the unit circle, trigonometric equations, and identities.
  • Number Theory: Explores divisibility rules, modular arithmetic, prime factorization, and Diophantine equations.
  • Combinatorics & Probability: Focuses on permutations, combinations, the binomial theorem, and advanced probability concepts.

Exam Overview

  • Format: The AIME is offered in both paper-and-pencil and digital formats.
  • Exam Description: The exam is a 15-question examination where each answer is an integer number between 000 and 999. There are two versions given on separate dates: the AIME I (primary date) and AIME II (alternate date). Students may only take the AIME once per competition cycle.
  • Duration: Students are given exactly 3 hours (180 minutes) to complete the exam, requiring immense stamina, patience, and accurate problem-solving skills.
  • Scoring: The AIME uses a strict scoring system. Students earn 1 point for each correct answer. There is no partial credit, and 0 points are given for incorrect or blank answers (maximum score: 15).
  • Calculator Use: Calculators are not permitted. No questions require the use of a calculator.

Tutoring Benefits

  • Personalized Instruction: Our experienced tutors provide one-on-one guidance, tailoring their approach to each student’s specific needs. We teach students how to navigate the exam’s unique structure, including how to properly manage their time and stamina over a grueling 3-hour period.
  • Targeted Skill Building: We emphasize problem-solving and the deep application of learned concepts. Our tutors provide highly customized materials to enhance the benefits of a personalized learning experience.
  • Exam Preparation: We provide targeted practice materials, including past AIME competition problems. Through timed tests and focused repetition, students build the confidence needed to succeed.
  • Progress Monitoring: We monitor progress regularly and provide constructive feedback. Our tutors identify areas for improvement and offer strategies to overcome specific challenges.
  • Feedback: Students receive instant feedback after every session and a monthly progress report. Remedial measures are taken immediately based on this feedback.
