Toward the end of the year, the AMT conducts award events in each Australian jurisdiction for high-performing students.
From 2025, the AMT has extended the invitation to a broader range of students, including top performers not just in the Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC), but in three of our other key competitions – the Computational and Algorithmic Thinking (CAT) competition, the Australian Informatics Olympiad (AIO) and the Australian Intermediate Mathematical Olympiad (AIMO).
The event really reflects the performance of students across a wide range of AMT’s problem-solving competitions in both mathematics and algorithmics.
The invitation list is determined to achieve a fair distribution across year levels, recognising the highest performers across the four competitions (AMC, CAT, AIO, and AIMO). The majority of the invitations are allocated to AMC participants, given the large number of students participating.
Invitations are limited to a small selection of students across the four competitions. This means that in the larger jurisdictions, receiving a Prize award in the AMC does not guarantee an invitation to the AMT awards event. A student may be invited because they were a high performer for their year level, even if their overall score or award was lower than students in other year levels who did not receive an invitation.
