The International Math Competition is designed to celebrate and cultivate mathematical excellence worldwide. It serves as the ultimate platform for aspiring mathematicians in grades 3-8 to demonstrate their adept skills, challenge their intellectual capacity, and push the boundaries of their mathematical competency. The IMC allows students to grow in ways that honor their God-given talents, fostering a deeper appreciation for the gifts they’ve been given and a stronger sense of purpose in using them.
Schools can register students for two different categories of math testing: Computation and Reasoning. Computation questions focus on applying math skills students already know—the steps are clear, and success depends on accurately performing the arithmetic. Reasoning questions, on the other hand, require students to determine what math needs to be done; they must think through the problem, decide on the operations or steps, and then solve. When registering students, you will need to provide their name, grade level, and indicate which test(s) they will be taking.
The competition is a digital event only. All testing will be conducted online at each registered school for each level.
