Is Discrete Math Hard?

[Guest]

Discrete math shows up on most middle and high school math contests. Prominent math competitions, such as MATHCOUNTS (at the middle school level) and the American Mathematics Competitions (at the high school level), feature discrete math questions as a significant portion of their contests.

Indeed, discrete maths plays a major role in competitions. MathCounts and AMC are always bringing up counting, probability, number theory, and logic. Since these subjects frequently include a significant portion of the more difficult issues, practicing them can significantly improve your performance.
