The Putnam Exam, offered by the Mathematical Association of America, is the premier American math competition for undergraduate students. This year, the exam is on Saturday, December 7th. The exam is run in two three-hour sessions of six problems each. This is a difficult exam with many interesting and fun problems.
To complement the Putnam Exam in the fall, we have our own UW undergraduate math competition in April, with prizes for top participants. Details to follow!
