Testimonials

AMSP was probably the best math program that I have ever signed up for. The teachers were thorough and explained new concepts in an understandable way during the lecture, and they also made sure to give us all materials on Google Classroom if we wanted to look through them again. They were always eager and enthusiastic about helping us grow.

With the intensive curriculum, and amazing teachers, I learned so many new ways to tackle extremely hard problems in various topics. The classes were an amazing experience and getting to work out problems on my own became so much more enjoyable thanks to AwesomeMath!

AMSP was something always mentioned as great, but I had no idea of the level it was really at. After taking the camp I can definitely attest to the other stellar reviews and then some! I actually improved on problem solving and had a lot of fun doing so.

AwesomeMath is one of the best places for exploring competition mathematics! The classes were both fun and challenging in a way that led me to further expand my knowledge and skills. Collaborating with other students was also a great way to build math knowledge and community, which was an experience like no other.

My experience at AMSP online was wonderful! I learned a lot. It challenged me while still providing a fun experience. The students, staff, instructor, and TA were all super nice and always willing to help. Thank you for the experience!

AwesomeMath was a wonderful experience and I was able to take an evening course in combinatorics which was great because it did not interfere with tennis practice.

Awesome Math was really a really fun camp and I learned a lot from it. I like the way the classes are set up so there’s a balance between learning the materials and actually trying it for yourself. Additionally, the TAs were super helpful and provided adequate feedback on the problem sets and tests, and they graded our homework quickly which was nice. It’s a nice community of math enthusiasts and there were always people willing to help or answer questions or just clarify some things from the lectures.

It’s been such a wonderful experience! All the social activities coordinators, instructors, and TAs are so nice and helpful. Thanks for organizing this! It’s been so awesome, as the very name of this program suggests.

AMSP has been an excellent learning experience and has greatly benefited my skills in math. With the wide variety of qualified teachers you will be sure to learn and strengthen many important concepts all in a fun maner.

AwesomeMath truly allowed me to experience mathematics outside of a conventional classroom setting. With peers that are just as driven as I am, as well as with instructors and TAs that go above and beyond to deepen our understanding, AMSP was certainly a transformative experience.

Review our readiness guide prior to applying. This summer math camp is ideal for bright middle and high school students (ages 12-18) who wish to sharpen problem-solving skills, prepare for math competitions, and further their mathematics education. Students should be comfortable with at least 4-5 problems on Part I (Levels 1-2) or 5-6 problems on Part II (Levels 3-4) of the admission test. If not ready, consider enrolling in the AwesomeMath Academy year-round program and or self-study resources from our bookstore first.

This summer math camp’s primary focus is problem-solving as a tool to enhance students’ interest and skills. The camp emphasizes applying advanced concepts creatively to concrete problems through carefully chosen questions that motivate investigation. Students learn from international faculty with extensive competition experience, collaborate with peers from around the world, and benefit from post-lecture problem sessions that encourage engagement. As many as 97% of students recommend this summer math camp to their peers. Read student testimonials.

There’s no minimum or maximum. Students accepted into the program determine when they want to participate and how many courses to take per session. However, AwesomeMath advises not enrolling in more than two classes per session. Students who took Part I can only choose Level 1 & 2 classes; students who took Part II have access to all levels. 

All teaching materials are included. Classes are live, instructor-led, and recorded. Daily homework is assigned with feedback and grading. Assessment tests are given the first two Saturdays of each session. For every course enrolled, students receive a FREE book of their choice from the AwesomeMath bookstore (selection process communicated in August).

If declined during one application period, you’re encouraged to try again with the next admission test – you only need to resubmit the new test, not other application materials. If you submit the final test (Test E) and are denied, you’re encouraged to apply the following summer after developing prerequisite skills. 

If not ready for the summer math camp, enroll in the AwesomeMath Academy – a fall and spring semester program requiring no application. Students who complete a minimum of two Academy semesters become familiar with concepts needed to solve admission test problems. You can also purchase Admission Test books containing problems and solutions from previous tests to help you train.

Students report it’s “the best math program” they’ve signed up for, praising thorough instruction, challenging yet fun classes, helpful staff, and the collaborative math community.
