<p>Hi, You'll. I'm an incoming freshmen. I've heared a lot about MCM and think it's a wonderful opportunity. </p>
<p>So does rice send a team to compete in MCM? And if anyone has participated in it, mind sharing your experience?</p>
<p>have not heard of it, but that really doesnt mean much.</p>
<p>Hopefully someone here knows for sure. If not, maybe email the rice departments?</p>
<p>I have heard of it, and I think they do. I know they participate in another math competition <a href=“William Lowell Putnam Mathematical Competition - Wikipedia”>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lowell_Putnam_Mathematical_Competition</a> I’ll be a freshman at the University of Houston this year, and I’m hoping to talk to the Math Department at Rice about maybe letting me participate since UH doesn’t have a team. I’m a Physics major, by the way. :)</p>
<p>you should be able to compete on your own. I know someone who did something like that, I think</p>
<p>Putnam is a lot harder than MCM, and I have lost my confidence in AIME duirng high school. But Good luck.</p>
<p>Really, I always thought MCM was a group competition.</p>
