Australian Mathematics Competition

In July last year about half of our Scotch community sat the AMC Maths Competition. While some of the competitors moaned and groaned, many excelled. Based on those results and a series of other competitions; approximately 100 students from across Australia are invited to attempt the Australian Mathematical Olympiad in February. We had three boys represent Scotch; Yuelin Shen (Year 12, Brisbane), William Steinberg (Year 9, Brisbane) and Daniel Wiese (Year 9, Keys).

On the back of those results William Steinberg has represented Australia in the junior category of correspondence Asian Pacific Mathematics Olympiad and over the Easter holidays both he and Dan will attend the AMOC Selection School in Sydney.
