Think Academy 2025 AMC 10 Post – Exam Analysis
AMC 10 Introduction
The AMC 10 is a national math competition held every November. It’s open to students in Grade 10 or below and is often the first major step toward more advanced contests like the AIME and USA(J)MO. Compared to the AMC 8 (typically taken in January), the AMC 10 includes more complex math and deeper problem-solving.
For many students aiming for math excellence, the school year follows a competition timeline: AMC 10 in November, AIME in February, and Olympiad-level contests (USAJMO/USAMO) in the spring. That’s why understanding the exam’s timing, format, and scoring is key to staying on track.
Quick Facts about the AMC 10
- Full Name: American Mathematics Competitions 10
- Organizer: Mathematical Association of America (MAA)
- Eligibility: Students in Grade 10 or below, under 17.5 years old on test day
- Format: 25 multiple-choice questions in 75 minutes
- Scoring: 6 points for each correct answer, no penalty for wrong answers
- Versions: AMC 10A and AMC 10B (you can take one or both; questions differ)
Topics Covered
The AMC 10 focuses on math typically taught from middle school through early high school, but the problems are more challenging and require flexible thinking. Main topics include:
- Algebra – linear equations, inequalities, factoring
- Geometry – triangles, circles, coordinate geometry, area and volume
- Number Theory – divisibility, prime numbers, remainders
- Counting & Probability – combinatorics, arrangements, basic probability reasoning
2025 AMC 10 Test Dates
- AMC 10 A (and AMC 12 A) – Wednesday, November 5, 2025
- AMC 10 B (and AMC 12 B) – Thursday, November 13, 2025
You can take either version, or both, depending on your center’s availability.
How to Register for 2025 AMC 10
Registration Process in the United States
In the U.S., individual students and parents cannot register directly for the AMC 10. Registration must be completed through a certified AMC test center, such as a school or learning institution. These centers purchase exam seats from the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) and are responsible for administration and proctoring. So, all participants need to complete the following two steps to register for the exam:
- Purchase an exam seat at a test center near you.
- Create an account on the MAA website and complete the exam registration form. For detailed instructions, please refer to this page.
Since 2023, AMC 10 has returned to in-person testing with two options:
- Paper-based exam
- Computer-based exam
- All formats require in-person proctoring by an authorized teacher or administrator.

How to Prepare for 2025 AMC 10?
Start by taking a full-length mock exam. This helps you assess your current performance, identify strengths and gaps, and set a realistic target—whether it’s reaching the AIME cut-off, Honor Roll, or DHR. Then, follow this structured approach to prepare efficiently:
Step 1: Diagnose with Mock Exams (4–6 months before the test)
Begin with timed mock exams to simulate real test conditions. Analyze your results to understand your baseline and determine whether your current level is closer to AIME qualification or if foundational work is needed. This step helps personalize your prep plan.
Step 2: Secure the First 10 Questions
The first 10 problems are your must-win points. Answering them correctly earns you 82.5 points—a solid base toward AIME. Focus on consistency and accuracy here. If you miss these, it’s a sign to revisit fundamental topics.
Step 3: Fix Common Mistakes in Mid-Level Problems (2–3 months before)
Between questions 11 and 17, small errors—especially with algebra, geometry setups, or problem interpretation—can cost you crucial points. Use targeted review to clean up logic errors and miscalculations. Build habits that reduce careless mistakes.
Step 4: Push for the Final Stretch (last month before the test)
The final 5 questions (21–25) are challenging for everyone—but solving even 1–2 can make the difference between Honor Roll and DHR. In your final prep stage, shift focus to pattern recognition, strategy, and advanced techniques to gain an edge.
