Topics Covered in Math Challenge III

The Math Challenge III class has more focus on problem-solving techniques rather than fundamental concepts and knowledge points. It is assumed that the students have learned the fundamentals. That being said, basic knowledge points are still covered if deemed necessary by the instructor, according to the students' level of experiences.

The order of these topics may vary, and these topics might not be all covered. The coverage will depend on time schedule and overall progress.
