Who Should Take This Course

This course is for students looking for a fun, challenging, and systematic introduction to the fascinating world of Combinatorics, which is not covered in depth in most school curricula, but which appears throughout middle and high school math competitions.

It is recommended for students who have completed Module 5.

At the same time, even high school students (who have not yet taken classes outside of school in Combinatorics) will learn a significant amount.
