Euclid is considered one of the most competitive, high-reputative competition in Canada along with the * Canadian Senior Mathematic Competition(CSMC) and * Canadian Open Mathematic Challenge(COMC). It is recommended by Waterloo University for 7th grade and over. Also, either the Euclid or the CSMC is recommended for a scholarship.


Format

This is a 150-minute, 100-point competition that consists of 10 written problems, each problem with multiple sub-problems. 

On the left side of each sub-problem, there will be one image, either "bulb" or "paper"

  • The image "bulb" means that the sub-problem counts 2-3 points within the problem's 10 points. Partial marks may be awarded if work is shown.
  • The image "paper" means that the sub-problem counts as the rest of the points of the problem's 10 points, and must be a written solution.

Curriculum

Awards are listed below:

1. Distinction: For people scored top 25%(usually 70ish) 2. Honour Roll: For people scored high enough(2%-5%, not sure, usually around 90ish)
