Junior Math Olympiad Mathematics International Competitions 

Students will get ready for Middle school as some extended algebraic skill will be part of our focus. They will relate concepts of decimals, ratios, rates, percent, exponents, combined with simple interest to solve real life problems and take informed decision financially. The course will be extended to include permutation combination with extensive probability examples. It help in preparing student for Junior Math Olympiad.

Reference videos are provided for basic support. For additional guidance contact Anil Kumar.
