Goodly Maths (Math Problems Online)
Math Contest Directory
Due to popular demand, here is a list of all of the math contests I know of, regional, national, and international. I have included a link (if the contest has a website) and, in certain cases, some comments. Other notations include:
(P) = includes problems from previous tests
(A) = includes answers from previous tests
(S) = includes solutions from previous tests
(R) = includes results from previous contests
[O] = online; all you need is a computer
[S] = you can take this at your school
[C] = central event only; you must travel to a specific site to take
this
[U] = unknown
([O] and [S] notations are in bold, as they are of particular interest to
many students)
[1] = easiest
[2] = easy
.....
[10] = hardest
If you know of any other contests, please send them to me by sending e-mail to goodlymaths@netscape.net
