In Argentina, the Olimpíada Matemática Argentina is organized each year by Fundación Olimpíada Matemática Argentina. All students that took and passed the National Finals (fifth and last round of the competition) exams, usually held in November; and were born before July 1 21 years ago, are allowed to take two new written tests to be selected for IMO, usually in May.
The American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) is a selective and prestigious 15-question 3-hour test given since 1983 to those who rank in the top 5% on the AMC 12 high school mathematics examination (formerly known as the AHSME), and starting in 2010, those who rank in the top 2.5% on the AMC 10. Two different versions of the test ...
The paper lasts 3½ hours, and consists of six questions (from 2005), each worth 10 marks. [3] The exam in the 2020-2021 cycle was adjusted to consist of two sections, first section with 4 questions each worth 5 marks (only answers required), and second section with 3 question each worth 10 marks (full solutions required).
The content ranges from extremely difficult algebra and pre-calculus problems to problems in branches of mathematics not conventionally covered in secondary or high school and often not at university level either, such as projective and complex geometry, functional equations, combinatorics, and well-grounded number theory, of which extensive knowledge of theorems is required.
The Indian Olympiad Qualifier in Mathematics (IOQM) is a national exam for students in grades 8-12. It's used to shortlist students for HBCSE's Mathematical Olympiad program. Students must be under 20 years old by June 30 of the IMO year and cannot have passed Class 12.
The National 5 Maths exam, sat on 12 May 2016, in particular Paper 1 (non-calculator), was also criticised by students after being considered much more difficult than previous years. A petition was created by students which was to be sent to the SQA demanding to know why the exam was exceedingly difficult, and it gained over 25,000 signatures. [19]
the AMC 10, for students under the age of 17.5 and in grades 10 and below; the AMC 12, for students under the age of 19.5 and in grades 12 and below [2] The AMC 8 tests mathematics through the 8th grade curriculum. [1] Similarly, the AMC 10 and AMC 12 test mathematics through the 10th and 12th grade curriculum, respectively. [2]
Provincial mathematics societies often hold preliminary tests to pre-select students for the National High School Mathematics Competition, although these tests do not constitute a part of the official IMO team selection process. Then, based on the results, each province is allocated a quota to enter the Chinese Mathematical Olympiad.
