<p>How advanced/difficult are the math topics that make semifinals?
I looked at the abstracts that won something in past years, and they were way beyond me.
My project, which I haven't finished yet, is quite dumb: compositions and partitions, and some "cool" stuff I found about each of these, proofs of stuff like "how many compositions of n are there".<br>
Also, does anybody know how many math projects get to semi? Do they look at each region individually?
Thanks!!</p>

<p>^^^Aww, that was a diamond shape
I know somebody knows something!!</p>
<p>There aren't many math projects, so maybe it is a plus if you do a math project and it is innovative because there aren't as many projects?</p>
<p>I don't exactly, but I remember a representitive saying there aren't as many math projects as other subjects.</p>
<p>Thanks, sr6622 :) That's what I thought too, but probably the math projects are really really advanced, unlike mine.</p>
<p>How many Computer Science/Artificial Intelligence (<-- that's the type of project I'm entering) are there?</p>
<p>I'm really sorry, but I had to bump this up again
So how does this sound: "The intrinsic qualities of compositions and partitions"?
I just don't understand all the very complicated research that has been done, and I don't see how any high school student could, so I guess doing a very simple but thorough project would be good......? Does anybody with SW experience know anything?</p>
