About
The MVMSC Monthly Math Contest will be structured similarly to the Mandelbrot Competition, which was unfortunately discontinued this year. Each round will consist of 7 problems to be done in 45 minutes, and is out of 14 points (two 1-point problems, three 2-point problems, and two 3-point problems).There will be 5 rounds in all -- one each month. For more on the Mandelbrot Competition, see here.
While this is going on, we'll have a running leaderboard with the top scorers after each round, and at the end of the contest the top scorers will receive some sort of cash/gift-card prize. We will drop each contestant's lower score, so don't worry if you couldn't make one contest!
Third place tie was broken by highest score.
