Alhamdulillah, Our Muslim homeschooled students participated on Mathcounts 2008.
They learned and worked hard to do all the problems of the week in this mathcounts.

The watch and play along for the Mathcounts competition is in Mathcounts National Competitions WEB CAST.

To learn from the archive and the problem of the week is in here.

My kids said that The AMC8 Contest was much easier than Mathcounts Competition.
I think all the contests or competitions will help kids to answer the SAT/ACT test in the same time.
Insha Allah, next year, they will try again. It is very good exercises for Math words problems. It helps them solve in critical thinking way. If your kids loves Math, he/she should love all this Math contests.
Mathematics is my kids' favorite subject.
