美国数学竞赛（AMC）由美国数学协会（MAA）组织，旨在为中学生提供发展逻辑思维和数学能力的机会，帮助他们实现未来的发展规划。如今，AMC 8已成为最具影响力的青少年数学竞赛之一，每年有来自30多个国家和地区、6000多所学校中的超过30万名学生参与其中。AMC 8的适宜参赛对象为8年级及以下、年龄不超过14.5岁的学生，比赛将于每年1月份举行。

Organized by the Mathematical Association of America(MAA), American Mathematics Competition (AMC) provides an opportunity for middle school students to develop positive attitudes towards analytical thinking and mathematics that can assist in future careers. Today, the challenge has become the most influential youth math challenge with over 300,000 students participating annually in over 6,000 schools from 30 countries and regions. AMC 8 held in January for grade 8 or below and under 14.5 years of age.

AMC8的考核内容涵盖了传统中学数学课程的各个主题，包括但不限于：计数与概率、估算、比例推理、基础几何（包括勾股定理）、空间想象力、日常应用、图表阅读与解释等。此外，一些问题可能涉及线性或二次函数与方程、坐标几何和其他在初级代数课程中涵盖的主题。

The material covered on AMC 8 includes topics from a typical middle school mathematics curriculum. Possible topics include but are not limited to: counting and probability, estimation, proportional reasoning, elementary geometry including the Pythagorean Theorem, spatial visualization, everyday applications, and reading and interpreting graphs and tables. In addition, some of the later questions may involve linear or quadratic functions and equations, coordinate geometry, and other topics traditionally covered in a beginning algebra course.

AMC 8 题目考察内容广泛，小学奥数常见模块均有涉及。全球前1%的DHR奖项极具含金量，在全球的认可度都很高。作为最具含金量的国际比赛AMC系列的入门，也是赴北美留学学子必参加的比赛之一。AMC 8 试卷采用中英双语，语言友好。

AMC 8 covers a wide range of topics and includes modules commonly found in elementary school math competitions. The Distinguished Honor Roll (DHR) award, given to the top 1% globally, is highly prestigious and recognized worldwide. As the introductory competition in the esteemed AMC series, it is also one of the essential competitions for students planning to study in North America. AMC 8 is available in both Chinese and English, promoting language diversity and friendliness.
