Which paper are you doing? Preparation tips etc. would be appreciated.

I'm doing Maclaurin, and definitely looking forward to the challenge!

E-mail from school.

Not this year for me. I got silver. I'm still happy though- it's my first time doing the IMO. Fortunately, our school prepares us via telling us four days before the challenge that we have one.

I did 2 questions

[anon17.]

Human156, which questions did you do?

Anyone else who took the Hamilton Year10 intermediate maths olympiad, feel free to pm me regarding the questions to compare answers

[ivan15]

I did Hamilton as well. I got the last question wrong but i think i've got the right answers (I checked with someone) for the first five questions although i guess i will lose some marks for non-complete steps. Can anyone tell me the boundaries of getting distinction/medal/bookmark for hamilton in the previous years?

thanks

[anon17.]

I would also be interested in knowing the boundaries for distinction/medal and book prize for the Hamilton in the previous years

I did the Maclaurin, did two questions fairly well (I hope) and three very sketchily, anyone else do it?

Is that 8:9? I'm not sure is that question or not

[vandanparmar]

I did the pink kangaroo today, did anyone else?

Does anyone have the full list of answers? I think that I got 22 or 23 correct. What have the boundaries been in past years for the different certificates? I got 76 last year and that was a certificate of Merit.

Hey which questions did you do? And what answers did you get?

[anon17.]

Cozma, which questions did you do and what did you get for them?

[Claree]

I don't think we should discuss questions until the UKMT post the paper and official solutions tomorrow morning as people can still do the paper until midnight and there may be some in different timezones.

i did all except 5 fairly well (hopefully again) and 5 sketchily. that one was quite tricky i reckon?

[anon17.]

does anyone know when the solutions will be posted online by the UKMT?

I did 1-4, did most of 5 but then ran out of time, and did 6 sketchily.
