The 2025 Euclid competition exam is coming soon. Have you mastered these real test skills?

Euclid Mathematics Competition

The Euclid Mathematics Contest is a mathematics competition held by the School of Mathematics and Computer Science at the University of Waterloo for high school students around the world. It is the most valuable and recognized competition in Canadian high schools and is known as the "TOEFL in mathematics." The University of Waterloo has the only mathematics school in Canada and the largest in North America. The Euclid Contest has been held since the 1970s. In the past five years, it has attracted more than 20,000 students to participate each year , and 95% of our students have won awards!

How to prepare for the Euclid Contest?

★ Be familiar with the scope and question types of the competition

The Euclid competition focuses on advanced high school mathematics knowledge, including:

• Functions and equations

• Plane geometry and trigonometry

• Number sequences and mathematical induction

• Number theory and divisibility

Practice past exam questions to understand question types and difficulty

★ Improve problem-solving skills

Learn to understand questions quickly, practice analyzing key words in questions, and improve calculation accuracy. Learn problem-solving skills and master common methods such as construction method, proof by contradiction, matching method, and algebraic geometry combination.

★ Practice test-taking strategies

The exam time is 2.5 hours. Plan the time for each question in advance and manage your time reasonably. Solve the questions you are good at first to ensure the basic score.

Euclid Competition Final Review Sprint

In order to help students prepare efficiently for the 2025 Euclid Mathematics Competition in the final stage, we have prepared a 6-hour efficient sprint review course for candidates! This course will comprehensively cover test points, real questions analysis, and problem-solving skills to help you win a good place in the competition!

Suitable for students
