2016 AMC 8

Bard Math Circle

<H2>AMC 8 Contest at Bard College</H2>
The Bard Math Circle is proud to offer the AMC 8 exam on November 15, 2016. This contest is intended to challenge middle school students with accessible mathematical concepts, but at a level that is above and beyond what is typically encountered in the school curriculum.
This activity is offered at no cost, but due to limited space, registration is required in advance. Parents or guardians must agree to a liability waiver and photo release for their child to participate.
Before the contest, join us for AMC 8 prep sessions, led by Bard undergraduate math majors. The sessions will take place from 1-4 pm in RKC, Bard's Science Building, room 101, on the following dates: 
Saturday 10/1 : Geometry
Sunday 10/16: Arithmetic and Counting; Number Theory
Sunday 10/23: Algebra
Saturday 10/29: Logic
Sunday 11/6: Arithmetic and Counting
Saturday 11/12: Probability 
Following the contest, participants will be treated to a talk by a Bard Mathematician. The entire program will be done by 6:30pm. 
Please register as early as you can. We have limited space and you will be waitlisted if space fills up and we are unable to accommodate you.
