This year, just two years after we moved to our new building, we are running out of space. That's why we are opening two new locations that will serve students from Greater Boston and Metro-Boston communities.
Do you have any friends who may be interested in taking classes at one of our new locations? Refer them to RSM and receive $50 off your next year tuition for each referral! We offer FREE Math Evaluation and $50 Referral Discount through September 1 , 2010.

Last year 150,000 students from 6,000 teams worldwide participated in the Olympiads. 49 of the 50 states and about 30 other countries were represented.
The highlights for students are the five monthly contests, given from November to March. These contests provide an incentive for students to intensify their study of math. (from MOEMS website)
