This paper is taken throughout Europe by over 3 million pupils from more than 37 countries. Two different Kangaroo papers follow on from the Intermediate Maths Challenge and the next 5500 highest scorers below the Olympiad threshold are invited to take part (both papers are by invitation only).
The qualification to BMO Round 1 is through the Senior Mathematical Challenge or the Mathematical Olympiad for Girls. Students who do not make the qualification may be entered at the discretion of their school for a fee of £40. [2] The paper lasts 3½ hours, and consists of six questions (from 2005), each worth 10 marks. [3]
A Mathematical Olympiad is a mathematical competition where participants are examined by problem solving [1] and may win medals depending on their performance. Usually aimed at pre-university students, much of Olympiad mathematics consists of elementary mathematics, though solutions may involve the use of calculus or higher-level mathematics.
Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge — Canada's premier national mathematics competition open to any student with an interest in and grasp of high school math and organised by Canadian Mathematical Society; Canadian Mathematical Olympiad — competition whose top performers represent Canada at the International Mathematical Olympiad
The first national mathematics competition was the National Mathematics Contest, established in 1961 by F. R. Watson. [11] This was run by the Mathematical Association from 1975 until its adoption by the United Kingdom Mathematics Trust (UKMT) in 1996 and has in recent years been known as the Senior Mathematical Challenge.
The content ranges from extremely difficult algebra and pre-calculus problems to problems in branches of mathematics not conventionally covered in secondary or high school and often not at university level either, such as projective and complex geometry, functional equations, combinatorics, and well-grounded number theory, of which extensive knowledge of theorems is required.
The examination paper comprises 30 problems to be solved over 3 Hours. The composition of the paper is 2 marker, 3 marker, and 5 marker problems. Stage 2 or Regional Mathematical Olympiad: The RMO is held between late October and early November across the country. The examination paper comprises six problems to be solved over 3 hours.
