6th ANNUAL FGCU INVITATIONAL

MATHEMATICS COMPETITION

COMPETITION RULES

We will follow current FAMAT rules for calculator usage -

    NO CALCULATORS PERMITTED FOR ANY SUBJECT TESTS, INDIVIDUAL OR TEAM, EXCEPT STATISTICS

GRAPHING CALCULATORS MAY BE USED FOR THE INDIVIDUAL OR TEAM STATISTICS TESTS

It is the responsibility of each team's sponsor to make sure students are using calculators in accordance with these rules. Failure to comply may result in individual or team disqualification.

All test materials will be provided. 

Teams will be composed of four students for each exam. Only one team per school per test category, please !

No limit on number of students participating in individual rounds.

Results from Algebra 1 and Statistics will not count toward overall school scores, however individual and team awards will be given for both subject areas. The reason for this is that not every school is able to field a team in these areas, and those schools not doing so would be unfairly penalized in the overall standings.

Contest officials at their sole discretion may resolve any tie scores, adjudicate the interpretation of any test question, invalidate the scoring of any test question, determine the admissibility of any response to a test question, and take any action which in their judgment benefits the conduct of the math competition.
