1.You have 75 minutes to solve 30 multiple choice problems. For each problem, circle only
one of the proposed five choices. If you circle more than one choice, your response will be marked as wrong.
2.Record your answers in the response form. Remember that this is the only sheet that is
marked, so make sure you have all your answers transferred here by the end of the contest.
3.The problems are arranged in three groups. A correct answer of the first 10 problems is
worth 3 points. A correct answer of problems 11-20 is worth 4 points. A correct answer of problems 21-30 is worth 5 points. For each incorrect answer, one point is deducted from your score. Each unanswered question is worth 0 points. To avoid negative scores, you start from 30 points. The maximum score possible is 150.
4.Calculators and graph paper are not permitted. You are allowed to use rough paper for draft
work.
5.The figures are not drawn to scale. They should be used only for illustration.
6.Remember, you have about 2-3 minutes for each problem; hence, if a problem appears to
be too difficult, save it for later and move on to the other problems.
7.At the end of the allotted time, please submit the response form to the contest supervisor.
Please do not forget to pick up your Certificate of Participation!
