2012 AMC 8 (http://amc.maa.org/e-exams/e4-amc08/amc8.shtml) was held on Nov. 13, 2012. It was Tuesday. My son took AMC 8 through FCAG sponsored free AMC 8 test. (FCAG is a non-profit organization helping gifted and talented kids and their parents in Fairfax county. Actually, they don’t limited themselves for helping people in other places. Some students from Maryland and other states took free AMC 8 – American Mathematics Contest 8. ) Mr. Jeff Steele, the math director of FCAG, is very active in making the AMC 8 avaible to those students whose schools don’t sponsor AMC 8. FCAG is running on the membership dues and parents volunteering to provide helps to those gifted and talented kids. Also, FCAG will prove free AMC 10 to those who score high on AMC 8 test. In 2012, FCAG helped 2000 students to take AMC 8 for free. Thanks to FCAG! Thanks to Jeff Steele! Thanks Andrea Austin, math chair at Luther Jackson Middle School who made the AMC8 available to so many young kids.
