IMPORTANT REMINDER
The deadline to register for the Moody's Mega Math Challenge is Monday,
March 2 at 5:00 p.m.
If you have already registered two teams from your school please
disregard this message.
Registration is quick and easy to complete at
http://m3challenge.siam.org/register/.
About the Challenge:
The M3 Challenge spotlights applied mathematics as a powerful
problem-solving tool, as a viable and exciting profession, and as a
vital contributor to advances in an increasingly technical society.
Scholarship prizes total $80,000. The Challenge is entirely
Internet-based and there are no entrance or participation fees. High
schools in New England and Mid-Atlantic states may enter up to two teams
of three to five students each. Students choose which day they wish to
work on Challenge weekend and have 14 hours to solve an open-ended,
realistic, applied math-modeling problem focused on real-world issues.
Teams can work from any location they choose and can use any free and
publicly available resources, but they may not discuss any aspect of the
problem with, or seek help from, their coach or anyone other than their
teammates.
Complete details, sample problems, and archives of previous winners and
Challenge events are available at http://m3challenge.siam.org

Hurry, time is running out!
