 CALCULATORS ARE NOT PERMITTED. It is becoming increasingly difficult to ensure that students will not use calculators or phones for communication purposes. For these reasons, the AMC disallows the use of all electronics on its examinations. No problems on the contest will require the use of a calculator.

You will have 75 minutes to take the exam.
