Eligibility: This competition is open to all woman-identifying and non-binary students in middle and high school. Non-Indiana residents and international students are welcome as well!

Format: There will be a middle school and high school division. In each separate division, there will be an individual round and a team round, where students are grouped into teams of 3-4 and collaboratively solve a set of difficult problems. There will also be a buzzer/countdown/Kahoot-style round, where students from both divisions are grouped together to compete in a MATHCOUNTS-style countdown round! There will be prizes for the top competitors in each division.

Problem Difficulty: Our amazing team of problem writers is working hard to ensure that there will be problems for problem-solvers of all levels! The middle school problems will range from MATHCOUNTS school round to AMC 10 level, while the high school problems will be for more advanced problem-solvers. The team round problems will cover various difficulty levels and are meant to be more difficult, while the countdown/buzzer/Kahoot round questions will be similar to MATHCOUNTS state to MATHCOUNTS Nationals countdown round in difficulty.

Platform: This contest will be held virtually through Zoom. All competitors are required to have their cameras turned on at all times unless they have a reason for otherwise. Proctors and volunteers will be monitoring students at all times to prevent cheating and to create a fair environment for all students.

Prizes: At this moment, prizes are TBD, and more information will be provided and attached to this post as the competition date approaches. Rest assured, IndyINTEGIRLS has historically given out very generous cash prizes, and we intend on maintaining this generosity into our Spring Competition.

Hey! People are starting to get their swag packages from Jane Street for qualifying for USA(J)MO, and after some initial discussion on what we got, people are getting different things. Out of curiosity, I was wondering how they decide who gets what.
Please enter the following info:

- USAMO or USAJMO
- Grade
- Score
- Award/Medal/HM
- MOP (yes or no, if yes then color)
- List of items you got in your package

I will reply with my info as an example.

Hi,

Can anybody predict a good score that I can get on the AMC 10 this November by only being good at counting and probability, number theory, and algebra? I know some geometry because I took it in school though, but it isn’t competition math so it probably doesn’t count.

Thanks.

Let be the orthocenter of acute triangle , let be the foot of the altitude from to , and let be the reflection of across . Suppose that the circumcircle of triangle intersects line at two distinct points and . Prove that is the midpoint of .

Alice the architect and Bob the builder play a game. First, Alice chooses two points and in the plane and a subset of the plane, which are announced to Bob. Next, Bob marks infinitely many points in the plane, designating each a city. He may not place two cities within distance at most one unit of each other, and no three cities he places may be collinear. Finally, roads are constructed between the cities as follows: for each pair of cities, they are connected with a road along the line segment if and only if the following condition holds: Alice wins the game if (i) the resulting roads allow for travel between any pair of cities via a finite sequence of roads and (ii) no two roads cross. Otherwise, Bob wins. Determine, with proof, which player has a winning strategy.

Note: is directly similar to if there exists a sequence of rotations, translations, and dilations sending to , to , and to .

Let and be positive integers with . Let be a polynomial of degree with real coefficients, nonzero constant term, and no repeated roots. Suppose that for any real numbers such that the polynomial divides , the product is zero. Prove that has a nonreal root.

We are excited to announce that registration is now open for Stanford Math Tournament (SMT) 2025!

This year, we will welcome 800 competitors from across the nation to participate in person on Stanford’s campus. The tournament will be held April 11-12, 2025, and registration is open to all high-school students from the United States. This year, we are extending registration to high school teams (strongly preferred), established local mathematical organizations, and individuals; please refer to our website for specific policies. Whether you’re an experienced math wizard, a puzzle hunt enthusiast, or someone looking to meet new friends, SMT has something to offer everyone!

Register here today! We’ll be accepting applications until March 2, 2025.

For those unable to travel, in middle school, or not from the United States, we encourage you to instead register for SMT 2025 Online, which will be held on April 13, 2025. Registration for SMT 2025 Online will open mid-February.

For more information visit our website! Please email us at stanford.math.tournament@gmail.com with any questions or reply to this thread below. We can’t wait to meet you all in April!
