[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2 kids going to 2 different HS. One school shared info about this, and there was radio silence from the other.  Why is MCPS not sharing such info to everyone?

[b]The 41st Annual (2019) University of Maryland High School Mathematics Competition[/b]

The format:
Part I - 25 multiple choice questions, 75 min; 
Part II - 5 problems, 2 hours.
Part I of the Competition is open to all students enrolled in high schools in Maryland and the District of Columbia. High scores on Part I will qualify to participate in Part II of the Competition. The three participants earning the highest combined scores on both parts will win $500, $400, and $300, respectively. Among those completing both parts of the competition, the highest scorer in each county and in Baltimore City and in the District of Columbia will be awarded a prize of $100.
The top three overall scorers* will be offered a scholarship for full tuition and expenses if and when they enroll at the University of Maryland (for non-seniors, this might be a few years from now). (*To receive a scholarship, a student must be a US citizen, national, or permanent resident.)

In addition to a sound knowledge of high school mathematics (up to, but not including, calculus), both parts will require a fair amount of mathematical insight and ingenuity.
The dates for 2019:

Part I, Wednesday, October 23, 2019, 1:00 - 3:00 pm; 
Part II, Wednesday, November 20, 2019, 1:00 - 3:00 pm.

The competition is usually given at the student's school. For special situations (for example, home-schooled students), contact Dr. Ebrahimian (math-comp "at" umd.edu). There is no registration fee for the competition. It's free.

Registration information:
Students who would like to register should contact their high school teachers. Teachers who will administer the exam should click here for information on how to register.
