   Hi,I was wondering where the tests would be taken and are there sample tests or literature outlining the topics which are covered?
   Thanks.

   Hi Margaret, the test is taken at home under exam conditions – parents sign a paper to say this requirement has been complied with. Sample papers are available here http://www.amt.canberra.edu.au/wuamc.html

   Hi Lalith,
   I’m sorry but the turn-around time to return completed comp papers means we can’t accept overseas entries. If you contact the AMT direct though, they may have some arrangements in place which would work for you. All the best.

   hi, can you use calculator on the tests
9. susan wight says:

   20 May 2011 at 10:30 pm

   Hi Alice,
   The instructions state that no calculators are NOT permitted for the secondary level competitions – Junior, Intermediate and Senior

   For the primary levels –

   ” You may use any teaching aids normally available in your classroom, such as MAB blocks, counters, currency, calculators, play money etc. You are allowed to work on a scrap paper and teachers may explain the meaning of words in the paper”

   We are able to accept late entries until the middle of next week.

    Hi Rachel,
    The AMC itself is run once a year. They do have other comps though – check their website or with your school for details. http://www.amt.canberra.edu.au/

33. susan wight says:

    6 November 2011 at 2:27 pm

    Hi Abdulkasim,
    It is not our competition. You’ll need to contact the Australian Mathematics Trust regarding entering next year. http://www.amt.edu.au/email.html

35. susan wight says:

    18 November 2011 at 11:47 am

    Hi Amber, as you didn’t enter with HEN as your school, you’ll need to contact your school or the AMT directly for your results.

    Hi, is it possible to get a copy of the Maths Competition my son did this year. He is in Grade 5 – School Code 31453. Would like to see what the questions were, and which ones he got wrong.

    Cheers,
    Jane Busby
37. susan wight says:

    Hi Jane,
    We don’t actually run the competition ourselves – your school may have kept a copy or you could contact the AMT directly at http://www.amt.edu.au/

39. Cindy says:

    18 June 2012 at 11:24 pm

    Do you know roughly how many points does a student need to score to get a Prize (top 0.3%) in a primary school division? 90? 100? 110? 120? I know every region is different, but I’d like to get an indication. Thanks!
40. susan wight says:

    14 July 2012 at 7:12 pm

    No Cindy, I can’t help you there. I’d recommend you contact the AMT direct at http://www.amt.edu.au/email.html and ask them.

    Hi Faisal, we only accept entries from our own members. If you are a home educator, you are most welcome to join HEN and enter next year. We notify our members when entries open. Other than that, to arrange entry, talk to your school.
