Princeton University Mathematics Competition

Contest Overview

Students at Princeton University are planning the first Princeton Math Competition for high school students, to take place on Saturday, December 16, 2006. The competition focuses on teamwork, and the maximum team size is 10 people. However, teams with under 10 people, and even individuals, will be accepted.

Contest Format

There are five different subject tests for the Individual test. They are Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Number Theory, and Advanced Topics. Each participant takes exactly one of these tests, and a team can only assign a maximum of two students to one particular test.

For the rest of the contest, there will Team, Power, and Relay rounds similar to those at ARML.

Registration is open until October 31, 2006. Late registration carries a penalty fee and is open from November 1 to November 22. The registration form is available online.
