RIML stands for Rhode Island Mathematics League, the primary high school math competition in the state of Rhode Island.
Four meets per year occur at selected schools in each division. The top schools from each division and the highest overall scoring schools are invited to the state playoffs. As of 2018, the state playoffs are held at Bishop Hendricken High School.
The meet categories, as of the 2017-2018 year, are as follows:
Meet 1:
Round 1: Number Theory/Arithmetic Round 2: Algebra I Round 3: Geometry Round 4: Algebra II Round 5: Stats/Probability Team Round
Meet 2:
Round 1: Number Theory/Arithmetic Round 2: Algebra I Round 3: Geometry Round 4: Algebra II Round 5: Trigonometry Team Round
Meet 3:
Round 1: Stats/Probability Round 2: Algebra I Round 3: Geometry Round 4: Algebra II Round 5: Trigonometry Team Round
Meet 4:
Round 1: Matrices Round 2: Algebra I Round 3: Geometry Round 4: Algebra II Round 5: Analytical Geometry/Conic Sections Team Round
State Playoffs:
Round 1: Number Theory/Arithmetic Round 2: Stats/Probability/Matrices Round 3: Algebra I Round 4: Geometry Round 5: Algebra II Round 6: Trigonometry/Analytical Geometry/Conic Sections Relay Round Team Round
In each meet, three rounds are designed to be "non-calculator" (Except the state playoffs, which has four "non-calculator" rounds).
Each team member may compete in three of the five rounds (except for the playoffs, where they compete in 4 of the 6 rounds). Students have ten minutes to complete the three assigned problems for the round, with 2 minute and 15 second warnings occurring. The first problem is worth 1 point, the second 2 points, and the third 3 points. In the team round, each of the five questions is worth 2 points.
Each school can send six teams of five people each; these teams are named A, B, C, D, E, and F, in that particular order. Each team cannot have more than two seniors, and no more than four combined juniors and seniors. This means that there must be at least one underclassman (a freshman or sophomore) on the A team. Otherwise, the team can compete with an empty slot.
