To register for YMO, MC I, MC II and/or MC III, please download the registration form and follow the instruction on the form.
Other Locations: We are authorized to hold Math Zoom classes at several of our partner The Princeton Review's sites in Southern California. The interest list is forming for other locations.
If you are interested in taking classes in other locations, please submit the form and indicate your interest. It's possible to schedule a class at a location not listed in the registration form
if there is enough interest. You are welcome to gather your friends and request a new class in a location close to where you live.
You do not need to pay anything until the class is scheduled.
Please call us and discuss the possibility and timeline to start a class in a location near you.
- In MC II, students learn and practice in areas such as algebra and geometry on the high school level, as well as
advanced number theory and combinatorics. Topics include polynomials, inequalities, special algebraic techniques,
trigonometry, triangles and polygons, collinearity and concurrency, vectors and coordinates, numbers and divisibility,
modular arithmetic, residue classes, advanced counting strategies, binomial coefficients, pigeonhole principle,
sequence and series, and
various other topics and problem solving techniques involved in math contests such as the American Mathematics
Competition (AMC) 10, 12 and ARML, and also the beginning AIME level.
- This course is for experienced students who can solve at least a few problems in the AIME contest, and up to
the USAMO level. In this course, the students learn more in-depth math concepts and problem-solving
strategies that involves more rigorous mathematical writing and a broad range of topics. The topics includes everything
covered in MC II with more depth, and additional topics such as quadratic residue, diophantine equations, recurrence,
proving inequalitis, mathematical induction, functional equations, generating functions, inversion, projective geometry,
and rigorous proof-writing practices. Through effective guidance and direction by our experienced teachers,
students develop strong problem solving skills that make them perform well in AIME and USAMO.
- Students learn the Math skills at a deeper level with topics in beginning algebra, fundamental geometry,
basic number theory concepts and counting strategies, as well as logic and probabilities. The students not only
learn practical skills of challenging problem solving that are supplemental to their
school curricula, but also develop skills in creative thinking, logical reasoning, oral and written presentation, and
team work. This course helps 6th to 8th graders (some advanced 5th graders may attend upon aproval) to participate in the American
Mathematics Competition (AMC) 8, MathCounts and Math Olympiads for Elementary and Middle Schools MOEMS. Through effective
guidance and direction by our experienced teachers, students develop strong problem solving skills that make them perform
well in the MathCounts, AMC 8, and MOEMS Contests.
- This course is focused on nurturing the interests of young kids from 3rd to 5th grades in challenging Math problem solving.
With the effective guidance of our experienced teachers, kids explore the fun of solving interesting and meaningful Math related problems,
and develop their logical and critical thinking skills. Some basic concepts covered in the Math Olympiads for Elementary School (MOEMS) are touched.
