Math clubs and competitions in high school?

<p>My school has almost every e.c club that one can think of except for anything related to math ._. I am thinking about bringing Mu alpha theta to our school and was wondering if anyone can provide me with some information about what exactly one does in mu alpha theta. I checked one the website and it looks like contests and such but I want to do more than that ...like a math competition where we go against other schools for regionals, district, states then nationals and such. Can anyone think of a program that is like this which i can bring to my school? ;D</p>

<p>Like aca deca or science bowl except for math? Thanks!!!</p>

<p>Math contests are usually more of an individual thing. The only “team” ones I can think of are specific to my region.</p>

<p>Qualifying for your state’s ARML team might be similar to what you’re looking for.</p>

<p>Good luck on your search!</p>

<p>Late edit: I do wish there were something like Mathcounts for high school. Would be very exciting indeed. There’s not much that motivates better than wanting to do well for the team.</p>

<p>um. our mu alpha theta chapter does different tests both in school and out of school… some include:</p>

<p>mandelbrot
fall start up</p>

<p>like 4-5 more, but I can’t remember their names :&lt;/p>

<p>we also go to competitions at Texas A&M(fall) and Rice University(spring).</p>

<p>We rarely have practice.</p>

<p>I’m on math team at my school. Most of the competitions we do are regional, so if you’re starting the club, you’ll probably have to do a bit of research. Perhaps talk to someone from a school with a math team about the contests they do. And see if local universities have annual competitions.</p>
