Chapter Competition: Feb 14, 2009: For our 26th Chapter Competition at San Jose State University, 218 students showed up for math on Valentine's Day. The competition was extremely tough, but our Mathletes were ready for the challenge. Leading the group, an amazing 5 of our Mathletes overwhelmed the test writers by logging perfect scores. We had to send them off to a tiebreaker round to determine our Individual Champion. For Results, start by clicking right here for the Press Release, then click on additional links below. |
