You must be a registered participant to submit solutions.
Click here to register.
Registered participants in the USAMTS may submit solutions
to any of the problems. We strongly urge you to follow the
guidelines below.
- Use
the solution form on the My
USAMTS Forms page. If you cannot print the form, and
cannot use LaTeX, then you can use a standard size 8 1/2
by 11 inch paper. No piece of paper should have
work for more than one problem. Thus, each problem
should start on a new piece of paper.
- Put
your name, your user ID Number, the round number, and the
problem number on every page. Once you have registered for
the USAMTS, you can find your user ID Numberon the My
USAMTS Profile page.
- Send
all your solutions at once - it's very hard to deal with
piecemeal solutions, and we cannot promise to do justice
to them. Please send solutions to at least 2 problems.
- Send
your solutions on time. The deadline dates are below; solutions
must be emailed, faxed, or postmarked on
or before the deadline date.

- Please
write legibly and do not be verbose.
If you use a pencil make sure it is dark enough to make
our lives easier. Do not submit scratch work and other half-baked
stuff. We want to see only your final,
well-written, thoroughly thought-out solutions to the problems
(in other words, explain clearly why your answer is correct).
Technical word processors are encouraged, especially
LaTeX, but not required.
- Mail,
fax, or email your solutions according to the following
guidelines:
- If
you are mailing your submission,
then tri-fold your papers and use a standard 4 1/8 inch
by 9 1/2 inch business envelope. Use correct postage.
There is no need to use express mail, registered, next
day, certified, etc; we discourage such approaches. Address
the envelope correctly, and be sure your return address
is on it. Keep a copy of your solutions, but send us the
original, not the copy. Do not return the problem sets.
Mail to:
USAMTS
PO Box 2090
Alpine, CA 91903-2090 |
- If
you are faxing your submission,
fax them to (619) 445-2379. Do not fax
solutions written in pencil - please use black ink only.
- If
you are emailing your submission,
email them to solutions@usamts.org.
In the subject line, include your name, your user ID,
and the round number, like this: 'Richard Rusczyk, 4,
Round 3.' We will only accept the following file
types: DVI, PDF, RTF, TEX, TXT, TIF, GIF, BMP, JPG, EPS.
We will not accept Word documents
for security reasons. We strongly encourage
students to submit solutions typeset with LaTeX (click
here to learn how). If you do so, please
email both the typeset document (meaning your PDF or DVI
document) and the original source document (meaning all
your LaTeX code, including any image files you use in
your solutions). A template LaTeX form is available
on the My USAMTS Forms
page for you to use, along with thorough directions about
how to use it. Please note that you do not have to use
LaTeX; you may handwrite your solutions if you wish.
