The AwesomeMath Summer Program is an intensive three-week online program for gifted students from around the globe. It is designed for bright middle and high school students who wish to sharpen their problem-solving skills and further their mathematics education. Many of our participants seek to improve their performance in contests such as AMC10/12, AIME, or USA(J)MO.
We have many students return each summer to not only further their education but also to reconnect with the friends they made.
Why should I participate in the AwesomeMath Summer Program?
Because it’s awesome! Students attending our programs are talented, wishing to improve their problem-solving skills and further their mathematics education. We offer mathematically gifted students the opportunity to engage in meaningful problem-solving activities and explore in detail areas in advanced mathematics. The high-quality instruction is provided by renowned lecturers and Olympiad coaches.
How is AwesomeMath Summer Program different from other math summer programs?
AwesomeMath’s primary focus is on problem-solving. We use it as a tool to enhance student’s interest and skills in mathematics. We believe that there are two major parts in advanced mathematics teaching and learning: higher concepts (introducing and developing new concepts) and applying them creatively to concrete problems. These two areas rely on each other, but we focus primarily on the latter. We feel that certain advanced mathematics topics are best introduced to young students by motivating the concepts through problems that encourage investigation.
We have strong problem-solving courses that fit the age and common interests of youngsters. Through this pursuit, we are confident that our student’s performance in AMC and Olympiad-style contests will improve significantly. We lead students to expand their knowledge on their own, so they develop the all-important desire to explore higher-level mathematics.
AwesomeMath is also featured on MIT’s “Preparing for MIT” page.
Courses: • Algebra • Combinatorics • Geometry • Number Theory
Students accepted into our summer program determine when they want to participate and how many courses they want to enroll in for each summer session. Students can enroll in one or more sessions and there is no minimum or maximum number of courses you must take within a session.
Here is the program format PER COURSE:
• Meet virtually Mon-Fri for three consecutive weeks (90-minute lectures followed by a 60-minute problem-solving session)
• All classes are live and instructor-led; all lectures are recorded
• Homework is assigned and submitted daily for feedback and grading
• Students will submit for grading an assessment test the first two Saturdays of each session
• Office hours held twice a week
• Social activities organized outside of class time to encourage student connection
Deadlines:
• Early Application: January 19, 2023
• Regular Application Round 1: February 23, 2023
• Regular Application Round 2: March 30, 2023
• Late Application Round 1: April 27, 2023
• Late Application Round 2: May 22, 2023
The participating students are between the ages of 12 and 18. In rare cases, we may accept students who are under 12, but only if they show evidence of remarkable mathematical and personal maturity.
1. New Student Application Steps (Student never attended the AwesomeMath Summer Program):
• Online Application Form
