Competition Mathematics
Contest Math
For students who want more than the curriculum. Deep problem-solving, olympiad preparation, and the joy of real mathematics.
Why contest math?
Contest mathematics is the most direct route to developing genuine mathematical thinking. Unlike school math — where the same technique always works on the same type of problem — competition problems require creativity, persistence, and a deep toolkit of ideas.
Students who train for competitions don't just do better on contests. They arrive at university with mathematical maturity that puts them years ahead of their peers.
We coach students at every level — from a strong student preparing for their first CEMC contest to an advanced student aiming for the national olympiad.
Competitions we prepare for
AMC 8 / 10 / 12
American Mathematics Competitions — the gateway to AIME and Olympiad-level competition.
CEMC Contests
Gauss, Cayley, Fermat, Euclid, Hypatia, Galois — the full University of Waterloo competition stream.
AIME
American Invitational Mathematics Examination — for students who qualify from AMC.
Math Olympiad Prep
For students aiming at national or international competition — proof-based problem solving at the highest level.
Topics covered
- Number theory: divisibility, primes, modular arithmetic
- Combinatorics: counting, pigeonhole, inclusion-exclusion
- Algebra: polynomials, sequences, functional equations
- Geometry: Euclidean, coordinate, and projective
- Inequalities: AM-GM, Cauchy-Schwarz, and beyond
- Proof techniques: induction, contradiction, invariants
- Problem-solving strategies and competition mindset
