TL is awesome, but it's comparable to asking TL to defeat the reigning world chess championship. Not at all really, these guys aren't the champions of maths as noted in that they got both an age and education limit and using the combined knowledge of ~10 average math majors should allow you to solve all of these in a manageable time without having any sort of special talent. I mean I would have gotten a better score than most of those in that competition (Getting more than 2 answers is better than most) but then I am almost done with what is equivalent to a maths master so it isn't fair to pit me against them.

It is all about algorithms, when you understand that it is quite easy. After reading it over a few times, I think you're right. Given the time, it probably wouldn't be too hard to make some sort of strategy out of it, the shit I can't handle is probably the geometry stuff and number theory simply because I haven't had much exposure to it. The geometry looks like stuff you'd see out of high school but it's on steroids, crack, and other shit at the same time | ||

Someone at Baldauren told me it was Poland, but it obviously wasn't them - because they came this year. So which country was it?? GL | ||

International Math Olympiad International Physics Olympiad International Chemistry Olympiad International Biology Olympiad International Olympiad in Informatics International Olympiad in Linguistics D: darn there are only annual sites for this... These are the big 5 (+1 since linguistics olympiad is not very big yet) international science olympiads (that the US participates in, anyways). Also there's Science Olympiad which is more like an engineering contest plus some science but whatever. | ||
