The American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) mark the initial stage in a sequence of contests focused on middle and high school mathematics, ultimately culminating in the formation of the United States team for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). Administered by the Mathematical Association of America (MAA), this examination is undertaken by students across the globe, evaluating their critical thinking and problem-solving abilities.

The AMC exam aims to foster independent and critical thinking in young minds, which is why the problems presented are unconventional in nature. Therefore, the essential components of AMC training encompass:
1. A strong foundation in mathematical concepts.
2. Extensive practice with a variety of mathematical problems.
