Hi,
I’m a sophomore and I know a bit about the SHP dealing with science and math. I know it’s the basic sciences at regents level and math ranging from algebra, trig, etc. However, for the challenge math part, what are the best ways to review? Are there any books which entail challenge math questions that could help? Is the math like AMC 10 or AMC 8, I’ve personally never participated in those competitions, but just want to know if it’s similar to those, and what can help prepare. Anything helps! Thank-you.

-taken Honors Biology, Honors Earth Science, Honors Algebra, Honors Geometry
-currently taking Honors Chemistry, Honors Alg 2/Trigonometry
-have not taken Physics or Pre-Calc yet

most of the science stuff is regents prep level or easier, google physics regents prep and look over it cuz if u took honors bio and chem it’s enough for those 2. As for math here is a link for the amc 10 archive. http://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/AMC_10_Problems_and_Solutions

I would try to do the problems between numbers 10 and 20 on each one and start with the most recent ones.
