MK Prep Activities

FREE Math Kangaroo Bonus Problem Practice Class Is Now in Your App!

✅ Students who are interested in Math Kangaroo preparation are welcome to participate in the live session in the Student App and select any session that fits their schedule. Each class combines guided problem practice with clear explanations, helping students reinforce core question types and become familiar with effective solving strategies.

✅ All sessions include replay access, so students who are unable to attend live can watch the recordings and review the material at their convenience. We encourage interested students to participate and practice at a pace that works best for them.

MK → ACE Competition Preparation Course

Designed for students with different competition goals, we have launched the “Math Kangaroo National Top 20 to Think ACE” course. The course is divided into two phases:

⭐️【Phase 1】: Focus on the core modules before the MK exam, covering key topics of MK 5-point questions to help students secure stable scores and do final sprint before the competition.

⭐️【Phase 2】: Connect to the Think Academy ACE competition system curriculum, preparing students for the ACE selection in May and higher-level competitions.

⚠️ The course allows stage-by-stage enrollment, enabling parents to flexibly arrange learning based on their child’s current level and plans.

Free MK Mock Exam

The February free Math Kangaroo mock exam will be sent to parents’ email inboxes on February 10. Please remember to check your email for the exam materials. If you would like to receive more free practice questions, you are welcome to scan the assistant QR code.
