MATHCOUNTS School Handbook

The Primary Resource for Video Teams

Math Video Challenge teams must select one of the 250 problems in the 2022-2023 MATHCOUNTS School Handbook for their video. 

Problems in the School Handbook are arranged in sets of 10; each set of 10 is like a mini-competition with problems covering different topics. As students work through the problems sets, the difficulty level increases. If students wish to select a problem for their video on a specific math topic, refer to the Problem Index, where problems are classified by math topic, main Common Core State Standard and difficulty level. 

Available in the Video Advisor Dashboard

Registered team advisors can access this year's full School Handbook, with all 250 problems, from the Video Advisor Dashboard.
