Nordic mathematical competition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Nordic Mathematical Competition (NMC; also known as the Nordic Mathematical Contest) has been organized yearly since 1987, after in the International Mathematical Olympiad of 1986 the leaders of the five Nordic teams agreed that their students need experience at a level more difficult than that of their national competitions. The responsibility for organizing the NMC rotates among the participating countries. Each country enters at most 20 participants, who must be students in a secondary school and less than 20 years old. Unlike in many similar international competitions, the students do not travel anywhere: each student competes at his or her own school under the school's supervision. The papers are preliminary marked in the student's own country and then sent to the organizing country for final marking.
