Your first visit
Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.
First step: Join the PMC VI interest list from the homepage, or email staff@pennmathcontest.com with questions..
You need to sign up first.
What to expect
Contests have individual and team challenges, with problems meant for every level. Students take part in person on Penn's campus or online, and winners get prizes or certificates. The site does not give contest dates, length, or fees, so the staff email is the best way to ask.
Tips for your first visit
- Join the interest list so you hear when the next contest is announced.
- Email staff to ask whether a high schooler can take part in person or online.
Newcomer welcome
Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The interest list and the staff email are open to anyone, and the site says the problems suit beginners. The site describes no orientation or volunteer steps..
