• Chapter 1: it covers algebra problems. Main topics are computational manipulation, percentages, quadratic equations, exponent rules, simple equations, simple word problems, systems of equations, proportionally and inversely proportionally problems, and more. • Chapter 2: questions involving graphs. We will discuss how to interpret graphical data, and some questions on lines and parabolas. • Chapter 3: some geometry problems. The central theme of this chapter includes measures of angles, of lengths (Pythagorean Theorem) and areas. • Chapter 4: number theory. We summarize divisibility rules for several numbers, and present really beautiful questions regarding it. We also cover Modular Addition and some clock calculations. • Chapter 5: a chapter on counting techniques. Besides the questions, chapter includes a brief explanation about permutations, combinations, probability, and other counting techniques. • Chapter 6: patterns and more. Several different types of questions in which the identification of a pattern may be crucial.
