The 2026 AMC 8 competition was administered during a week-long window from January 22 to January 28, 2026. Some sources also indicate an extension through January 30 due to winter storms, with exact testing times determined by individual schools. The exam, organized by the Mathematical Association of America (MAA), is intended for middle school students and is typically held in late January. Because schools administer the competition worldwide throughout the testing window, it is imperative that problems and solutions not be discussed in any online or public forum until the day after the competition period ends at 8:00 a.m. ET. For more information, see the 2026-AMC-8-Teachers-Manual.
We will post the 2026 AMC 8 Problems and Answers at 8:00 a.m. ET on January 31, 2025. You are welcome to download them at that time.
