About the Los Angeles City College (LACC) Mathematics Contest

Here is an opportunity for high school students to win money, a scholarship, and recognition. LACC invites high school students to enter its Annual Mathematics Contest to be held on the campus Los Angeles City College in Spring 2011.

The problems to be solved in this competition require a solid algebra and geometry foundation. These problems challenge the student's ability to think and synthesize rather than recall standard solution techniques from their courses.  The competition will give students with different backgrounds a fair chance.  Knowledge of trigonometry and calculus is not required.

Please know that calculators are NOT allowed to be used during the contest.

Minimum Qualifications to Enter the Contest

The contest is open to all junior high and high school students in Southern California.

Registration begins in February 2011.
