Wabash County Junior High Mathematics Contest

March 26, 2013

Contest Description

The Mathematics and Computer Science Department at Manchester University recently sponsored its 20th annual mathematics contest for 7th and 8th graders attending Manchester Junior High, Northfield Junior High, Southwood Junior High and Wabash Middle School.

Eighty students competed for individual as well as team awards.  The individual competition consisted of a written exam of 30 questions and a flash round where students were presented 15 questions in sequence with a limited amount of time to respond to each.  Top finishers in each grade received trophies and gift cards (1st, 2nd & 3rd) and ribbons (4th thru 10th).  Teams consisted of one student from each of the four schools working together on a set of 13 more challenging questions, with the top five of 20 teams receiving ribbons.  Once you try out the team problems you can check your solutions.
