AMC8 Prepare Tips - 3

** Time Management **
To many students, finish 25 questions in 40 minutes is very tight. So spend your time wisely can be help to get a better score.

- Usually use 1 - 1.5 minutes for question #1 to #10.
- Use 1 - 2 minutes for question #11 to #20.
- Do NOT spend over 3 minutes on a single question unless you have to. You can guess an answer, and check it back later.
- If you know you can't finish all the questions, then just give up question #21 to #25, make a guess, and use all the time to the first 20 questions, and try you best to solve them right.

4 ways to Help Your Child Develop Critical Thinking Skills:

1. Don't just ask "what?" — ask "how?" and "why?"
2. Follow it up with "how do you know this?"
3. Prompt them to think about how their perspective may differ from other people's.
4. Finally, ask them how to solve the problem.

AMC8 Prepare Tips - 2

Although exam is coming, doing more practice is still helpful.
Find past questions and solutions on: https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/AMC_8_Problems_and_Solutions

Put more time on incorrect questions, think:
- Why you got wrong, is it careless, or something you don’t know?
- Learn the thinking and the method to solve the problem,
not just the answer.
- How can you make right on such kind of questions next time?
- Do the question again on the next day, to make sure you
mastered the concept or the method.

When Lily and her family move in with her sick grandmother, a magical tiger straight out of her halmoni's Korean folktales arrives, prompting Lily to unravel a secret family history. Long, long ago, Halmoni stole something from the tigers. Now they want it back. And when one of the tigers approaches Lily with a deal—return what her grandmother stole in exchange for Halmoni's health—Lily is tempted to agree. But deals with tigers are never what they seem! With the help of her sister and her new friend Ricky, Lily must find her voice...and the courage to face a tiger.
