The Committee on the American Mathematics Competitions (CAMC) reserves the right to re-examine students before deciding whether
to grant official status to their scores. The CAMC also reserves the right to disqualify all scores from a school if it is determined that the
required security procedures were not followed.
Students who score well on this AMC 10 will be invited to take the nth annual American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME)
on Thursday, March [dd], [yyyy] or Wednesday, March [dd], [yyyy]. More details about the AIME and other information are not on the
back page of this test booklet.
The publication, reproduction or communication of the problems or solutions of the AMC 10 during the period when students are eligible
to participate seriously jeopardizes the integrity of the results. Dissemination via copier, telephone, e-mail, World Wide Web or media of
any type during this period is a violation of the competition rules.
