Solve the Problems
Each round consists of 1 puzzle and 4 proof-based problems. The problems vary in difficulty, so there is something challenging yet approachable for everyone.

Get Feedback
Our graders not only give you a score, but also personalized written feedback to help you develop your mathematical and writing skills.
Win Prizes
At the end of the year, the top 45% of students will receive prizes, including math books and T-shirts. Prizes may include Wolfram software subscriptions as well. The USAMTS is also one way to qualify for the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME).
