About the International Math Olympiad
The IMO is the world’s premier high school mathematics competition, attracting the best young mathematicians from around the globe. Each participating country sends a team of six students who solve six proof-based problems over two days. The annual competition brings together hundreds of students from more than 100 countries and territories, promoting mathematical excellence and international friendship.
Team Preparation
Students qualify for the USA IMO team through a series of competitions organized by the MAA starting with the American Mathematics Competitions. Each year, approximately 300,000 students from over 6,000 schools and learning centers worldwide participate in these competitions. Students in the U.S. whose performance in the competitions stand out are invited to complete intensive training at the MAA Mathematical Olympiad Summer Program.
