Very nice. That's a competition I'm familiar with. In my Freshman year, I placed top 100, but I have three years left to improve.
Never took the other ones (other than grade 12). We only took the canadian ones. I think each year's was named after a different mathematician. Euler, Fermat etc.
When you finally get to university take the Putnam. The one year I bothered they didn't ship our exams out on time to be graded.
I placed #3 in Canada in the physics university prize exam that year though.
Made off with a few hundred bucks from that...12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Going to a math magnet is not what I'd call neglecting your math skills. Maybe you're not as dedicated as other people from TJ, but anyone who goes there has to have fairly 1337 m47h skillz.
I'm thinking of getting back into the math team this year, though. Should be fun. w00t w00t

My school is pwning, as usual, in m47h 734m. We compete with Sidwell, which is a good math school, and then a bunch of other private schools, which suck. There's 6 math meets a year, and despite only going to 5 of them, my cumulative score was the highest in the league."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known.

Take the number 2004^100. Let S be the set of positive integer divisors of this number. What size is the largest possible subset T of S such that no element of T divides evenly into any other element of T?12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET
