The William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition, often abbreviated to Putnam Competition, is an annual mathematics competition for undergraduate college students enrolled at institutions of higher learning in the United States and Canada (regardless of the students' nationalities). It awards a scholarship and cash prizes ranging from $250 to ...
The International Mathematical Olympiad ( IMO) is a mathematical olympiad for pre-university students, and is the oldest of the International Science Olympiads. [1] It is “the most prestigious” mathematical competition in the world. The first IMO was held in Romania in 1959.
Equation x√y = y√x. The equation produces a graph where the line and curve intersect at . The curve also terminates at (0, 1) and (1, 0), instead of continuing on to infinity. The curved section can be written explicitly as. This equation describes the isocline curve where power functions have slope 1, analogous to the geometric property of ...
The United States of America Mathematical Olympiad ( USAMO) is a highly selective high school mathematics competition held annually in the United States. Since its debut in 1972, it has served as the final round of the American Mathematics Competitions. In 2010, it split into the USAMO and the United States of America Junior Mathematical ...
American Mathematics Competitions is also the name of the organization, based in Washington, D.C., responsible for creating, distributing and coordinating the American Mathematics Competitions contests, which include the American Mathematics Contest, AIME, and USA (J)MO. The American Mathematics Competitions organization also conducts outreach ...
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. Charleton Heston

Pan African Mathematics Olympiads (PAMO) South East Asian Mathematics Competition (SEAMC) — South-East Asia. William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition — United States and Canada.
The American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) is a selective and prestigious 15-question 3-hour test given since 1983 to those who rank in the top 5% on the AMC 12 high school mathematics examination (formerly known as the AHSME), and starting in 2010, those who rank in the top 2.5% on the AMC 10. Two different versions of the test ...
