2013-2014 Mathcounts training program is for students who prepare for the 2013-2014 Mathcounts Chapter and State Competitions. It is online with blackboard writing, audio, and video (using Google Hangouts with Share Screen/SketchUp tools).
The program will consist of a weekly lesson every Sunday evening for 21 weeks starting from September 28, 2013 and end the last week of February, 2014.
In each lesson we will have a lecture talking about the basic knowledge/skills with plenty of examples, mainly following our book 50 Mathcounts Lectures. We will give about 20 practice problems after each lesson as homework. Students can post any questions they may have in our discussion forum for this program.
