MATH COMPETITION
The ACSI International Math Competition
The International Math Competition is designed to celebrate and cultivate mathematical excellence worldwide. It serves as the ultimate platform for aspiring mathematicians in grades 3-8 to demonstrate their adept skills, challenge their intellectual capacity, and push the boundaries of their mathematical competency.
​
With three rigorous levels of testing, this competition provides a unique platform for students to compete against the best minds globally.
​
The test date for the International Math Competition Level 1 is Wednesday, February 5, 2025. The test date for the International Math Competition Level 2 is Wednesday, March 5, 2025.
The test date for the International Math Competition Level 3 is Monday, April 7, 2025.
​
The competition is a digital event only. All testing will be conducted online at Providence Christian Academy during the regular school day.
Students in grades 3-8 are eligible to participate in the ACSI International Math Competition. There is no limit to the number of students who can be registered for the Level 1 test. Students can participate in one or both categories for their grade level as long as the student is registered for each test. The registration fee is $25 per test per student.
Students must participate at the same grade level they are currently enrolled in. Regardless of their performance level in math, no student may participate at a grade higher or lower than their enrolled grade.​
​
After Level 1 and 2 testing windows end, schools will be notified of any student(s) who qualified to advance to the next level.​

Registration for Level 1 ends on Friday, November 22, 2024.​
The ACSI International Math Competition is a series of timed tests that are administered digitally over multiple rounds. The competition categories include arithmetic computation, involving fundamental operations, and mathematical reasoning, requiring advanced reasoning and may incorporate multiple operations and concepts. Each student competes against others in their respective grade and category. Students with the highest percentage of correct answers advance to the next round, culminating with international winners for grades 3-8 in Computation and Reasoning.​
Level 1: The Foundations Round - In this initial round, participants will tackle a diverse array of fundamental mathematical problems, testing their understanding of basic concepts and problem-solving abilities. To advance to the next round, students must achieve a minimum score demonstrating proficiency in foundational mathematical principles.​
Level 2: The Advanced Round - Those who successfully navigate the Foundations Round will face even more complex challenges in the Advanced Round. Participants will need to demonstrate a deep understanding of advanced mathematical concepts and exhibit exceptional problem-solving prowess. Only those who meet the rigorous criteria for excellence will progress to the final round.​
Level 3: The Championship Round - The pinnacle of the International Math Challenge, the Championship Round is reserved for elite mathematicians. Here, participants will encounter the most demanding mathematical problems, requiring ingenuity, creativity, and precision to solve. Only the top performers from the Advanced Round will have the opportunity to compete at this level, where one student per grade level per category will be esteemed as the International Math Champion.
