The Student Hour is approximately 12 hours of class or contact time, approximately 1/10 of the Carnegie Unit (as explained below). As it is used today, a Student Hour is the equivalent of one hour (50 minutes) of lecture time for a single student per week over the course of a semester, usually 14 to 16 weeks.
Since 2002, the USAMO has been a six-question, nine-hour mathematical proof competition spread out over two days. (The IMO uses the same format.) On each day, four and a half hours are given for three questions. Each question is graded on a scale from 0 to 7, with a score of 7 representing a proof that is mathematically sound.
Math 55 is a two-semester freshman undergraduate mathematics course at Harvard University founded by Lynn Loomis and Shlomo Sternberg.The official titles of the course are Studies in Algebra and Group Theory (Math 55a) [1] and Studies in Real and Complex Analysis (Math 55b). [2]
For each paper, candidates have three hours to complete their solutions. Whilst students are permitted to answer as many questions as they choose, they are advised to attempt no more than six, and their final grade is based on their six best question solutions. Each question is worth 20 marks, and so the maximum a candidate can score is 120.
The American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) is a selective and prestigious 15-question 3-hour test given since 1983 to those who rank in the top 5% on the AMC 12 high school mathematics examination (formerly known as the AHSME), and starting in 2010, those who rank in the top 2.5% on the AMC 10. Two different versions of the test ...

The College Football Playoff bracket is SET. After weeks of speculation, the world knows what the first-ever 12-team playoff looks like, but it’s far from a perfect system.
Success in middle-school mathematics courses is correlated with having an understanding of numbers by the start of first grade. [42] This traditional sequence assumes that students will pursue STEM programs in college, though, in practice, only a minority are willing and able to take this option. [4] Often a course in Statistics is also offered ...
