We hosted 8 in-person competitions based in Washington, NorCal, SoCal, Illinois, Georgia, Massachusetts, Nevada and New Jersey, as well as an online competition run nationally. In total, we had almost 900 competitors, and the students had glowing reviews of the event. MMT International will once again be running later in August, and with it, we anticipate our contest to reach over a thousand students.

In our classes, we teach students math in fun and engaging math lessons and help them discover the beauty of mathematics. Our aspiring tech team is working on a variety of unique projects like our website and custom test platform. We also have a newsletter, which, combined with our social media presence, helps to keep the mathematics community engaged with cool puzzles, tidbits, and information about the math world! Our design team ensures all our merch and material is aesthetically pleasing.

Some highlights of this past year include 1000+ students in our classes, AMC10 mock with 150+ participants, our monthly newsletter to a subscriber base of 6000+, creating 8 designs for 800 pieces of physical merchandise, as well as improving our custom website (mustangmath.com, 20k visits) and test-taking platform (comp.mt, 6500+ users).

Me too, they finally made a decision. I don’t know anyone who actually got accepted though which is wild.

Did they also just say "you were not a good fit," or was it just to me? I'm just wondering if they just hate me or if that is just how they email people :skull

Yeah i got the same email as well

HOW

i honestly am surprised that I got in, I decided to apply after not recieving a MOP email, and there was one of the questions on the app that I didn't fully understand what the wording meant, so I kinda left that blank, but I did pretty good on the other problems, I spent like <= 30 minutes doing the writing section, idk tbh (possibly the only reason I got in is bc i had like jmo honors in my awards list or smth)

definitely thankful to be not campless

I think it’s very unlikely that you will be admitted to MathILy-Er by the end of the week and the chances of being admitted later have been decreasing as students have been confirming their attendance.

I got off the wait-list 5 days ago, they mentioned I was high up on the wait-list so that's probably why. Apparently most of the wait-list is usually accepted (from past years).

True, they seemed a bit pessimistic with my emails as well. Could you tell me when they sent you that email?
