The competition consists of both individual and team components, with teams of size 4-6 students.

The Individual Round is 60 minutes long, consisting of 20 short-answer problems in increasing order of difficulty. The problem difficulties range roughly from MATHCOUNTS to lower-AIME levels.

The Guts (team) Round is 80 minutes long, consisting of 27 short-answer problems, presented in 9 sets of 3 problems each. The point values for each problem are written on each set. At the start, each team will be given the first set of problems. Once the team has submitted their answers for a set, they may move onto the next set (and cannot go back). Team scores will be updated in real time!

The optional Estimathon mini-event is 30 minutes long, consisting of 13 estimation problems. Learn more about how the Estimathon works here !
