@KiaAfzali Well, they did cheat since they initiated the doc and actively sought answers from people. But we also violated rules by discussing the problems.
I am not the owner of the doc… albert stein was.
I just wanted to verify my answers…
this is pretty interesting… lol
I think a goog doc’s fine if it’s approved by CEE. It is right?
idk, but on a completely random note, does anyone know if the International Medicine Olympiad is gonna be a thing this year? I had no idea where else to ask this lol
When can we discuss the problems?
@phat97 yes
GeometryForLife is correct. He was one the first to find out something wrong with the google doc. Thanks for GeometryForLife’s clarification
@MathemagicalWasp No idea. Were you there last year?
Nah. I heard some ppl saying it lacks the merit of the USABO cause its just sign up and go, but to me the International Medicine Olympiad sounds pretty legit.
@MathemagicalWasp call them or email them if you’re worried about it happening again
Use the way back machine to determine a rough date of when they posted last year’s information and if you don’t hear from them by then, assume it’s not going to happen
@MathemagicalWasp I did it last year. It’s legit, my team won 3rd place.
yasssssss. jesus. I assume you studied a lot? Like medical textbook front to back?
So, off topic but everything seems a bit more spaced out this year
Last year the deadline to turn in tests was Feb. 13, but people were notified by March 8. This year it was Feb. 18th, however we will be notified by March 15. 2 days is a tiny different though.
The biggest difference comes from SemiFinal notification and taking the exam.
2016: March 8th Notification March 14 to 18 administration of exam
2017: March 15th Notification March 27 to 31 administration of exam
SemiFinalists get double the time to study this year.
It takes an extra week to notify National Finalists too (18 days vs 26 days)
