Statewide Mathematics Contest

If you are enrolled at MCC this semester either full-time or part-time, and have not taken any mathematics courses above the level offered at MCC, please consider representing MCC in this year's statewide contest for two-year college students.  It is an opportunity for personal and school recognition.  Prizes are awarded for top scorers in the state.  Also, the top scorer from MCC will be recognized at the MCC Awards Banquet in May. 

Questions are a mix of multiple choice and open-ended, and can be solved using mathematics at the pre-calculus level. It’s fun and only takes an hour of your time!  Students who take the New York State Mathematics Association of Two-Year Colleges (NYSMATYC) contest are given extra consideration when applying for NYSMATYC scholarships.

To participate in the NYSMATYC Math Contest, come to  Room 8-100 on Wednesday, November 20th from 11:55 a.m. to 12:55 p.m.

For a sneak preview of what to expect, copies of old contest exams are in a wall bin outside of Kim Martello’s office in room 8-302.

Note: Calculators are not allowed on the NYSMATYC exam.
