[quote=Anonymous][quote=pettifogger] I don't want to detract from Buchholz and his math team's achievements (which are still impressive), but calling them greatest by the WSJ is not only meaningless without specific measures, but also just plain misinformed when compared to other elite high school math contests such as the AMCs and HMMT. Even at the middle school level, one will find many challenging questions on recent years of the national Mathcounts round that are significantly more difficult than what is found on the MAT. [/quote] I agree with everything you've posted, but it is worth noting that Buchholz had a very impressive performance on the AMCs, as well. They had over 20 AIME qualifiers from the AMC 12A alone. Greatest math team in the country? No. Greatest math team in a low-middle income smallish town? Quite possibly.[/quote]
