To all Contest Managers:

I am very pleased that you will be providing the opportunity for your students to participate in the 55th annual American Mathematics Contest 12 (AMC 12) or its sister contest, the American Mathematics Contest 10 (AMC 10). I believe that your students will find these contests to be both interesting and challenging. Again this year a total of 4 contests (two AMC 10 and two AMC 12) were developed by the Committee on the American Mathematics Competitions and panelists under the leadership of Committee Chairs Professor Douglas Faires for the AMC 10 and Professor David Wells for the AMC 12. I extend special thanks to both of them for the extra effort involved in developing the separate set of contests.

This year, in response to your requests from last year, we include in this manual two handouts:

  • Worksheets for contest preparation
  • A handout for parents on why mathematics is important

You may reproduce these pages for your students.

Very sincerely,

Steven Dunbar
Director
