Eighteen Syosset High School students have qualified for the American Invitational Mathematics Exam (AIME). To qualify to take the AIME, students must score in the top 5% of all students tested on the American Math Contest 12 or top 2.5% on the American Math Contest 10.

The Syosset students who qualified for the AIME are Cody Cheng, Jordan Guo, Alan Huang, Alice Huang, Ashley Huang, Jason Lee, Katherine Li, Grace Lu, Maximus Lu, Jake Mallen, James Masson, Anish Mittal, Michael Ren, Emily Su, Alex Wang, Ryan Wei,

Samuel Xiao, and Margaret Zhang.

The AIME is a 15 question, 3-hour examination in which each answer is an integer number from 0 to 999. Students who score exceptionally well will advance to the USA Mathematical Olympiad.

The MAA’s American Mathematics Competitions program is a series of exams and curriculum that helps America’s educators identify and foster a love of mathematics in their students by building problem-solving and analytical skills in middle and high school students.
