AMC 12 – Grade 11 Read More

The AMC 12 is a 25-question, 75-minute, multiple-choice examinations in high school mathematics designed to promote the development and enhancement of problem-solving skills. The contest is run by the Mathematical Association of America. This course provides thorough preparation for the contest and builds problem solving skills based on the entire high school math curriculum.

Canadian Math Olympiad (CMO) – Grade 11 Read More

The Canadian Mathematical Olympiad (CMO) is Canada's premier national advanced mathematics competition. Students require an invitation from the Canadian Mathematical Society in order to participate. The competition is run by the Canadian Mathematical Society. This course provides thorough preparation for the contest and builds problem solving skills based on the entire high school math curriculum.
Canadian Open Math Challenge (COMC) – Grade 11 Read More

The Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge (COMC) is Canada's premier national mathematics competition open to any student with an interest in and grasp of high school math. The purpose of the COMC is to encourage students to explore, discover, and learn more about mathematics and problem solving. Top-ranking students from the COMC are invited to write the Canadian Mathematical Olympiad (CMO). The contest is run by the Canadian Mathematical Society.
Canadian Senior Math Contest – Grade 11 Read More

The Canadian Senior Mathematics Contest (CSMC) is a 2-hour contest designed to give students the opportunity to have fun and to develop their mathematical problem-solving ability. The contest is run by the University of Waterloo. This course provides thorough preparation for the contest and builds problem solving skills based on the entire high school math curriculum.
Computing Contest – Junior level – Grade 11 Read More

The Canadian Computing Competition (CCC) is a fun challenge for students with an interest in programming run by the University of Waterloo. In this course, we provide preparation and traning for CCC, junior level, and help students build confidence and grow their ability to design, understand and implement algorithms.
Euclid – Grade 11 Read More

The Euclid Contest gives senior-level secondary-school students the opportunity to tackle novel problems with creativity and all of the knowledge they've gained in secondary-school mathematics. The contest's mix of short-answer and full-solution questions challenges students to practice communicating their thinking, and with the final questions some of the most challenging among all of our contests, the Euclid helps learners build perseverance, a key component of mathematical problem-solving. The contest is run by the University of Waterloo. This course provides thorough preparation for the contest and builds problem solving skills based on the entire high school math curriculum.
Fermat and Hypatia Contests – Grade 11 Read More

The Fermat Contest is a 25-question, 60-minute, multiple choice examination, which provides an opportunity for students to have fun and to develop their mathematical problem solving ability. The Hypatia Contest is a unique opportunity for students to write a full-solution contest -- a format that can help learners develop both problem-solving and communication skills. This fun, engaging contest inspires creative problem-solving as students tackle problems that build to a larger, more complex problem to solve in each question. Both contests are run by the University of Waterloo.
Math Caribou Contest – Grade 11 Read More

The Caribou Mathematics Competition is an international online math contest held six times over the school year. The contest is designed to be accessible and enjoyable to students of all levels, not just those who excel in math.
