https://www.uab.edu/cas/mathematics/community/math-talent-search-dayThe UAB Math Talent Search Day began in March 2003, sponsored by the Department of Math and the College of Arts and Sciences (then the UAB School of Natural Sciences and Mathematic). The event continues to be held every year during the fall, bringing students and their teachers/coaches to UAB for this math contest with a twist.
The two-hour written test is designed for 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade students and incorporates both algebra and geometry skills, emphasizing reasoning ability. The four highest scorers in each grade are recognized, and school awards are presented to the three schools having the highest composite scores of three students in each grade.
Schools must register their students to attend the contest. The cost is $10 per student.
