In this paper, we give an almost sure central limit theorem (ASCLT) version of a maximum limit theorem (MLT) with an arbitrary sequence {dn, n ≥ 1} of weighted means of max{Xk, k ∈ An}, where {Xn, n ≥ 1} is a sequence of independent random variables, and {An, n ≥ 1} is a sequence of almost surely finite random subsets of positive integers independent of {Xn, n ≥ 1}. Thus we generalize the cases considered in the literature: (i) the nonrandom version of ASCLT for the MLT; (ii) the version of ASCLT for randomly indexed MLT; and (iii) the version of maximum schema of observed and unobserved random variables. We complete the paper with illustrative examples.
