IMC Elite Level: Qualify for the Olympiad
Tackle the hardest IMC-style problems and prepare for Kangaroo and Olympiad rounds with original competition-level challenges.
About This Course
An in-depth exploration of geometry and spatial reasoning at the level needed for Gold certificates and Kangaroo/Olympiad qualification.
What you’ll learn:
🏆 The Hardest IMC Problems Work through the most challenging questions from recent IMCs – the ones that even strong students find difficult. Learn the insights and techniques that unlock them.
🌍 Original Competition-Style Problems Practice Kevin’s original problems inspired by the hardest questions from competitions worldwide. Exposure to different problem styles ensures you’re ready for anything the IMC might include.
🔀 Multi-Topic Integration Elite-level problems rarely test just one topic. Develop the skill to recognize when problems combine geometry with algebra, or number theory with logic.
🎯 Kangaroo and Olympiad Preparation Many questions will help you begin preparation for the Grey/Pink Kangaroos and Cayley/Hamilton/Maclaurin Olympiad rounds. Get comfortable with the step up in difficulty.
Perfect for:
- Students targeting Olympiad qualification
- Those who’ve achieved Gold before and want to push further
- Students who’ve completed Advanced courses
- Anyone who thrives on the hardest mathematical challenges
