I am currently enrolled in the bachelor of science (advanced), I never applied for the phb because my english mark dragged me below the 99 cutoff. I only recently discovered that people below this cut-off made it into the course, on their merits in competitions and olympiads etc. Is it...

Hey, going to anu, want to major in both pure mathematics and theoretical physics, yet when i look at third year subject options i will fill up everything in pure mathematics alone. Is it possible (If you do well enough) to take 5 or even 6 subjects per semester? I know it is not adviseable, but...

That is what i thought. Looks like 20/20 then!

What about 14? I had A, but some people have been claiming that the answer was D, as it was not a complete loop. I disagree, an emf will still be induced. If that is right, i got 20/20

it is good for young kids but you soon get tired of him getting out of everything so easily!!!!!!!!!!

Guys i read the first page and i was seriously shocked that this stuff was considered good... Also the comparisons with harry potter are understandable. Harry Potter is a good idea/story but is poorly written. JK Rowling cannot be considered even in the shadows of the great writers. Her...

well i will come up with some questions and post them online. Using the same format i.e. 25 multi and 5 integer responses. I am quite busy :mad: at the moment so i will consider doing this throughout the holidays or something. If any of you guys have any special topics you would like me to...

awesome. It may take a while to organise so try and get as many people as possible.

Hey guys i was wondering if any of you were interested in me making a MOCK test in the style of the amc. My main reason for doing so, is to motivate people and maybe help them improve fo next year. I undestand that alot of mathematics majors frequent these forums so they can take it too. If...

observe these two contrasting examples and decide for yourself what IQ really means. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_James_Sidis and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Feynman

if 59 were not prime and we factored this imaginary 59 non prime the smallest factor would be our answer.

the answer is A We are looking for an output X, where in this case x is the smallest positive integer divisor of 60. from the ones listed this is six, yet note that the answer would be one if listed. 0 is a case we do not consider in these informatics questions.

i would have to say a brave new world. but then again i tried to read it in 4th grade.....i found the first chapter quite arbitary.... and u-borat........what is wrong with the heart of darkness it is excellent

The AMC does not require too much creativity compared to some competitions. Infact i have never seen a question which requires the need to make up new methods. The last few questions can be very very very easy.....looking at intermediate last year the final was probably the hardest and even then...
