    Special Episode: About the AMCs

    Welcome to our first special episode! In this episode, we will be talking about what the AMCs are, some tips to do well, and benefits the AMCs give you. Our guest for this episode will be Sohum, who is an AIME qualifier and has several years of experience with the AMCs. Good luck and tune back in for our next episode next month! Special Note: There may be controversial topics in this episode. This only reflects our opinions and feelings about them after taking the AMC. You are welcome to disagree.  Speaker Notes: More about the AMCs: https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/AMC_10  AoPS Mock Test Community (will only work if you have an account and are signed in): https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c594864_aops_mock_contests More Tips: 1. The AMC 10A is typically similar to difficulty and types of problems in the AMC 10B, so you can prepare for the AMC 10B after taking the AMC 10A. 2. In the recent years, the AMC series have gotten much harder, so you typically only need 16-19 questions right to qualify (depending on the difficulty and how many questions you leave blank).  3. If you eliminate the possible answer choices down to 3, you could try guessing, although it is not recommended! 4. Make sure you really know the material. If you need time to think about how to solve the problem and need to test multiple methods, you will most likely run out of time. 5. When practicing with mock tests, give yourself some room to make mistakes! 6. Keep calm and good luck!
