ARML Power Contest
Congratulations to:
Our top 3 finishers in the 2007-2008 Power Contest. (There was a tie for second place.)
Now in its fifteenthth year, the ARML Power Contest provides a group problem solving situation similar to the power question found at the ARML Competition. Each year the contest consists of two problem sets, one in the fall and the other in late winter. The mathematics level of the contest problems has been geared so that students in an honors class, in a math club, or on a math team can have a unique problem solving and mathematical writing experience. There is no limit to the size of the team, but the time for solving the problem set is limited to 45 minutes. This year's contests will be run the weeks of November 1 – 16 and February 7 – 22. Coaches will receive the contest materials at least one week prior to the above dates and may schedule the contest anytime during the designated two weeks. After completing the contest, the student solutions are then mailed back and are graded using a forty point rubric. Trophies will awarded to the top ten scoring teams at next year's ARML competition. If you wish to take part in this year's contest, please fill out the form below and return it along with your registration fee. Please share this with a colleague!
The Harry and Ruth Ruderman Award is awarded at the ARML Annual Competition to the winning team of the Power Contest.
