Putnam 2014
by Wolstenholme, Dec 8, 2014, 3:52 AM
So I didn't take this officially (since I'm not in college yet) but I spent ~4ish hours on this and I got A1, A2, A3, A4, B1, B2, B4 (I might have gotten B3 with more time, the bipartite graph + finding a cycle is pretty well-known). I wonder if I would have gotten HM (granted, this is not under contest conditions 
).
Also MIT decision in less than a week (I don't know when Caltech and UChicago will release their decisions). God I hope I get in, or else I'm going to be soooooo stressed for the next month.
Oh also props to math154 his solution to A5 was absolutely incredible.
