Do you know what you need to get a merit?

Nope, it's the top 25% of participants. What score did you get?

It's supposed to be "the next month", though I'm not sure if it's April the first or the 19th

If those are the answers then I've done much worse than I thought:/ I'd have gotten 59, which I guess isn't bad, but I'd've thought I'd done a little better

The UKMT has uploaded the solutions to the Olympiad. It's on their website. I took the Maclaurin.
My solutions to 1,2 and 3 were correct, but I'm not sure the proofs were fully explained. My solution to four, was wishy-washy, so I'm not expecting many marks there, and as for question five, I only worked out four solutions, when there were seven. Do you think I'll get any marks for question five?

Is that a merit?

Don't be disheartened if you didn't do well. The achievement is that you managed to get a high enough score in the challenge to qualify for a follow-on round. That in itself is an accomplishment!

Got a merit in hamilton despite the fact that I only got 1 solution fully correct :biggrin:

so gassed right now

Wooooaahhh

I got 73 in Pink Kangaroo, which I'm happy about! I guessed the last five and got none of those ones right though😂 do you think I'll miss out on a merit?
