The putnam is the primary indicator for performance as a research mathematician, unless of course you pursue undergraduate mathematical research and succeed in obtaining a useful result. Otherwise a zero on the putnam should be an indicator for a change of career.
At MIT he had been involved in many scholarly extracurricular activities, including running SPUR (Summer Program in Undergraduate Research) for MIT undergraduates, overseeing the mathematics section of RSI (Research Science Institute) for advanced high school students, and coaching the MIT Putnam exam team for nearly two decades starting in ...
