(2015-2021)

$ 44.95

Over the years, AwesomeMath Summer Program has become prestigious, not only for its rigorous curriculum and experienced instructors but also because of its selective admission process. Students who aspire to participate in the program need to take one of the three admissions tests offered every year. The first fifteen years’ tests and solutions are divided in two volumes. Volume I focuses on the years since the start of the summer program in 2006 through 2014. Volume II includes the years 2015 to 2021, inclusively. Each volume starts with the statements of the test problems. Complete and enhanced solutions to all problems are then presented, numerous problems having multiple solutions. Therefore this book not only is a great resource for preparation for the 2022 Summer Program admission tests, but also for AMC 10/12 and AIME contests. It also serves as a valuable resource for teachers who are working with gifted students or for any coach who guides young mathletes to improve their scores in mathematics competitions.

AwesomeMath Summer Program started in 2006. Since then until 2021 there have been 48 admission tests featuring a total of 510 problems. The vast majority of the problems were created by Dr. Titu Andreescu, Co-founder and Director of AwesomeMath. The problems are original, carefully designed, and cover all four traditional areas of competition math: Algebra, Geometry, Number Theory, and Combinatorics. The problems and solutions are divided in two volumes. Volume I focuses on the years since the start of the summer program in 2006 through 2014. Volume II includes the years 2015 to 2021, inclusively. Each volume starts with the statements of the test problems. Complete and enhanced solutions to all problems are then presented, numerous problems having multiple solutions.

This is a rare opportunity for students to get to view the answers to the past AwesomeMath admissions tests, so I highly recommend this book for parents, teachers, and students. They will learn some strategies and even new concepts along the way. This is a very broad book in terms of Math topics as it covers all areas of Math competitions, but the explanations are comprehensive. It also gives different approaches to solving. If you’re curious how AwesomeMath tackles its challenging math problems and how your students can learn from their year round and summer classes, this is a perfect book.

I’ve been a TA for AwesomeMath Summer Program for 2 years and a TA for AoPS Online for 7 years. Being involved in both programs, I get a lot of questions about the AMSP both from students and math instructors. I love getting a chance to talk about the AMSP because of how much I enjoy it and how much it stands out! I get asked a lot about how the program is different from other programs and how the math compares with other programs. This book is a great way to answer that question, so I have been recommending it.

Many are familiar with the books by AwesomeMath such as, 106 Geometry Problems, but I think the admissions tests questions have been a mystery over the years. When I first saw the title, AwesomeMath Admissions Tests-The Next Seven Years I was really happy that AwesomeMath was releasing their test questions. I am sure that many students and math enthusiasts have wanted to see these questions and now they get that opportunity!

The book AwesomeMath Admissions Tests-The Next Seven Years is set up so that you can find varying levels of difficulty on each classic subject, Algebra, Geometry, Number Theory and Combinatorics. Since these tests are for admission into the AMSP, the book is kind of like having a preview into the AMSP. Let’s say you want to figure out what level of geometry you need practice with. You can go through each of the admissions tests and find geometry problems of all different levels. Not just levels, but types. Some ask you to write a proof, others ask you to calculate lengths, angles, etc. This is because AwesomeMath has different levels of classes on geometry. Some are proof based, others are more computational. This book covers everything, even the in-between subjects, like trigonometry.

Additionally, this book is not just for students preparing for the AMSP, it is also a convenient resource for any math enthusiast. It’s kind of like having a chance to be in the AMSP even if you aren’t able to. I have found it to be an amazing resource for my problem solving. As I have worked through each problem, I compared my solutions to the solutions given. Doing this made me uncover problem solving techniques I didn't know existed, giving me more experience as a problem solver. Additionally, I found the solutions fascinating. Anyone who has the motivation to work through these beautiful problems will become a better problem solver! Thanks AwesomeMath for writing these!
