This is the golden ticket to MIT for top math students

Straight A’s Aren’t Enough for MIT!

Your child aces every school test. They’re the top of their class in Algebra II. But when they sit for the AMC 10, they freeze. Why? Because school math doesn’t prepare them for *this* kind of thinking.

In this video, we break down the growing gap between traditional math education and the demands of competitive college admissions. Discover why elite schools like MIT, Caltech, and Princeton look beyond report cards—and how math competitions like AMC 10/12, AIME, and USAMO have become critical academic signals.

**🎯 What You'll Learn:**

* Why school math is no longer enough for top STEM schools
* The difference between memorization and mathematical thinking
* How AMC and AIME scores influence elite college admissions
* When and how to start training for math competitions
* Real examples of the types of problems that trip up top students
* How math contests sharpen thinking for the SAT, ACT, and APs

Whether your child is in 6th grade or already in high school, it's not too late to start. Math competitions are more than contests—they're gateways to recognition, scholarships, and standout college applications.
