About Global Math Challenge
Global Math Challenge is packed full of fun math puzzles devised by the Japan Prime Math Olympic Committee, an organization with a strong track record in math contests geared towards children. The questions will test participants' creativity and will allow them to discover their true math sense. Global Math Challenge features 9 different grades of difficulty to best suit the education levels of test takers, from the 1st grade in elementary school through middle school and all the way up to the adult level. Available in English, Japanese and Chinese, the contest is welcoming thousands of math fans from right around the world. The one hour challenge takes place on Sunday, September 27 and is the perfect way to keep kids engaged with math at the start of a new school year.
Two plans are available for Global Math Challenge, the free Trial Plan and the paid Standard Plan. With the Trial Plan, participants will now be able to receive not only their score, but their global ranking as well, shortly after the test. And with the Standard Plan, under which up to 4 people can take part using one shared account, participants will also be provided with step-by-step, beautifully illustrated explanations for every question, analysis of their critical thinking strengths and an extra set of bonus questions.
