Grade K-2

First Mathematics Challenge🇬🇧The First Mathematics Challenge (FMC) has been specifically created to give all pupils, UK and worldwide aged between 7-9, the opportunity to take part in a fun Mathematical Challenge.
Singapore & Asian Schools Math Olympiad🇸🇬Created in 2006, SASMO is one of largest math contests in Asia. It has expanded from 155 local participants in 2006 to more than 20 000 participants from 19 countries in SASMO 2016. More than 100 schools from Singapore took part in SASMO 2016. The SASMO Team with the support of Advisory Council spend countless hours carefully developing contest papers which will touch on both school and Olympiad maths. This combined effort allow participants to do better compared to pure-Olympiad papers, since they are familiar with some questions and are able to put on their thinking caps for others, bringing out the inner mathematician in them. With realistic and high standards, SASMO contests aim to stretch the untapped thinking potential of the student population, their participation in SASMO will help them improve in school mathematics as well as higher order thinking skills (HOTS).

Grade 3-5

ELMACON🇨🇦ELMACON was started in 1999 and is organized by PIMS under the guidance of Dr. Cary Chien (formerly of David Thompson Secondary School), Joshua Keshet, Klaus Hoechsmann (the PIMS Education Facilitator), as well as volunteers from UBC, SFU and the Lower Mainland. ELMACON gives students from grades 5 to 7 a chance to experience mathematics as an exciting sport. The contest is modelled after the successful MathCounts competitions (which are also supported by PIMS), but is aimed at younger students. Students from grades 5, 6, and 7 compete in separate divisions. Each division is comprised of three rounds Sprint, Target (both written) and Countdown (a verbal one-on-one competition). The top 25 participants in each grade are acknowledged and the top ten participants from each grade advance to the CountDown Round (oral contest).
Komodo Math Competition🇮🇩Komodo Math Competition is an international math contests for k-12 students. Students from around the world are invited to participate in the math contest according to their age-category. A portion of the exam will test their knowledge of standard school mathematics, and a portion of the exam will test their creative muscle through olympiad-style non-routine problems.

Grade 6-8

Acton-Boxborough Math Competition🇺🇸ABMC is uniquely designed such that every participant can solve a sizable portion of the problems. The difficulty ranges from that of simple arithmetic, algebraic, and geometric problems to that of the AMC. All participants will have problems they can solve and problems that will challenge their mathematical problem-solving skills. The competition was designed with the intent than any student will have a chance to succeed in math. The onsite competition is in April and consists of speed, accuracy, and team rounds. Trophies, medals, and prizes are awarded to high-performing individuals and teams. Additionally, ABMC provides free monthly online contests in October, November, and September. ABMC was founded by Akshay Gowrishankar, Allen Wang, Antonio Frigo, Richard Huang, and David Lu in 2016.
Kenya Mathematical Olympiad🇰🇪The Kenya Mathematical Olympiad is an annual Secondary School mathematics contest organized by the Mathematics Association of Kenya in conjunction with the School of Mathematics, University of Nairobi. The competition is organized with the aim of selecting Kenya’s teams for the International Mathematical Olympiad and the Pan African Mathematical Olympiad. Every secondary school with eligible students can participate and is encouraged to do so. The Competition is open to both Junior and Senior categories.
AMC 8🇺🇸The AMC 8 is a contest for students in grades 8 and below, hosted annually by the Mathematical Association of America to students all over the United States. The AMC 8 is a 25 multiple-choice question, 40-minute competition designed for middle schoolers. The AMC 8 is a standalone competition; students cannot qualify for the AIME via their AMC 8 score alone. The AMC 8 is scored based on the number of questions answered correctly only. There is no penalty for getting a question wrong, and each question has equal value. The American Junior High School Mathematics Examination (AJHSME) was the predecessor of the AMC 8, held from 1985 to 1998.

Grade 9-12

Pan-African Mathematics Olympiads🌍The Pan African Mathematics Olympiad (PAMO) is an annual prestigious event of the African Mathematics Union (AMU) organized each year, since 1987, in an African Country where the best pupils in mathematics of secondary education who are less than twenty (20) years old, are invited to compete. PAMO aims to foster a spirit of excellence and camaraderie among young African mathematicians. Purpose and Objectives: Promote Mathematics: To encourage the study and appreciation of mathematics among African youth. Identify Talent: To identify and nurture mathematical talent across the continent. International Standards: To provide a platform for students to compete at a high level, comparable to other international mathematics competitions. Format Participation: Open to high school students from African countries. Team Composition: Each participating country team consists of six contestants, three girls and three boys, a team leader, a deputy team leader and observers Competition Structure: The competition usually spans two days and includes two rounds of challenging mathematical problems that test various areas of mathematics such as algebra, geometry, combinatorics, and number theory.
Romanian Master in Mathematics🇷🇴The Romanian Master of Mathematics (RMM) (also known for a period as the Romanian Masters in Mathematics and Sciences) is an annual competition for students at the pre-university level, held in Bucharest, Romania. It is one of the most challenging international high school mathematics competitions. It allows students to demonstrate their mathematical abilities, exchange ideas, and to enhance cross-cultural contacts. The contestants compete individually in Mathematics. The participating teams (national and local teams) can have up to four official contestants and several nonofficial contestants (plus two coaches: a leader and a deputy leader). The contest follows the same structure as IMO. The team score is based on the combined scores of three highest official contestants. Each year the winning country brings RMM trophy back to get its name engraved and returns it to the competition the next year.
Indian Regional Mathematical Olympiad🇮🇳The Regional Mathematical Olympiad (RMO) is the second stage examination of the Mathematical Olympiad Programme in India. It is a three-hour examination with six problems. The RMOs are offered in English, Hindi and other regional languages as deemed appropriate by the respective Regional Coordinators. The problems under each topic involve a high level of difficulty and sophistication.
