<p>UW</a> students wins a Putnam - top math prize</p>
<p>I don't mean to insult anyone but for those who don't know the Putnam exam is a very difficult annual math exam. Six hours in length, twelve questions. The median score is 10 out of a possible of 120. The top five scorers usually come from Princeton, MIT, CalTech, Harvard and Yale. This year one of the top five is from the UW.</p>
