Note: Prior to 1999,the MAA's annual mathematics contest for students not yet in high school was known as the American Junior High School Mathematics Examination, or the AJHSME.

Note: There was no AMC 8 contest in 2021 due to the shifting the AMC 8 date to January.

The primary recommendations for preparation and study for the AMC 8 are past AMC 8 contest problems and solutions and the Art of Problem Solving Series Books.

I recommend the AoPS books be studied in the following order:

  • Prealgebra by Rusczyk, Patrick, and Boppana, AoPS, 2012.
  • Introduction to Counting and Probability (2nd edition) by Patrick, AoPS, 2007.
  • Introduction to Number Theory (2nd edition) by Crawford, AoPS, 2008.
  • Additional Recommended Problem Solving and Review Books for preparation for the AMC 8:

  • Competition Math for Middle Schools by J. Batterson, CreateSpace, 2009.
  • Challenge Math for Elementary and Middle School Student (2nd edition) by Edward Zaccaro, Hickory Grove Press, 2005.
  • Creative Problem Solving in School Mathematics (2nd edition) by George Lenchner, Math Olympiads Press, 2005.
  • Mathcounts Handbooks (typically over 300 new problems per year)
  • "It is better to give than to receive - especially advice" - Mark Twain

    And remember - be respectful to your superiors, if you have any. Good Luck! - DP
