Would you say that the Senior Mentoring scheme is bmo1 level or higher? It seems more difficult that BMO and the Intermediate mentoring scheme seems at a slightly lower level than bmp problems

Quick note, SMS next year will become less olympiady and more school syllabus based with open questions.
Quick question, when we do inequalities why and when can we assume stuff like x + y + z =1 if its not in the question. Ive seen it a few times in some problems....

It is when inequalities are homogenous. Ie a mapping if x->kx leaves it unchanged and various other things like xyz=1 or whatever. Here is some discussion that may help, also if you have different degrees on either side and you have a set condition of a+b+c=1 or something it may be nice to make everything same degree (multiplying one side by the contraint cubed for degree 3 or something like that) which i was shown how to do in a BMO2 problem 3 of this paper https://bmos.ukmt.org.uk/home/bmo2-1999.pdf .

How come? Also how have the NST's gone? I see that he was added to the 9 at the camp! Last paper tmmrw right? gd luck1
I guess you know how they went by now, but yeah, not hugely sad rn, I tried my best and it didn't quite work out. I'm not really sure, something to do with how they want it to be more applicable to school maths and to reach larger audiences. Plus a change in who's in charge of it.

You did great man! You started step stuff now? Well geoff did say it is probably the strongest he has ever seen the team mesning you probably would have made it any other year!
