About the olympiad
The
Olympiad competition consists
of an exam consisting of five challenging problems requiring only the
mathematics appropriate for students' grade level. Participants will be divided
in three groups: Grades 5-6, Grades 7-9, and
Grades 10-12 and given three hours to write solutions to these problems.
Participation is free and open to all children interested in mathematics.
The winners in each group will get prizes.
The
Award Ceremony will take place at 4 p.m. in Room
A304, Wells Hall. During the Award Ceremony solutions of the problems will be
given.
