CEMC Euclid

The Euclid is a contest administered by the Center for Education in Mathematics and Computing(CEMC). Euclid is considered one of the most competitive, high-reputative competition in Canada along with the Canadian Senior Mathematics Competition(CSMC) and Canadian Open Mathematics 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 "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.
