The '''Caltech Harvey Mudd Math Competition (CHMMC)''' is an annual high school [[math competition]] organized by Caltech and Harvey Mudd College undergraduates since 2009. 

== Contest Format ==

CHMMC consists of the group round where competitors will complete the team and power round with their team of up to 6 members, the individual round, and the tiebreaker round.

'''Group round'''

The group round will last for 120 minutes. The test will have two parts: a short answer part (called the team round) and a power round. The parts will be weighted 40% Team, 60% Power. Teams will be able to work on the two parts simultaneously.

The team round will have ten questions with integer answers. In the team round, teams will not need to justify their answers. To get full credit, they will need only to submit the correct answer.

The power round will have several proof-based questions, with point values labelled over each question. The teams must justify their answers correctly to earn full credit, although incomplete solutions may earn partial credit. Problems will range in difficulty from simpler exercises to USAMO/IMO leveled Olympiad problems. 

'''Individual round'''

The individual round will last for 75 minutes. The test will have fifteen questions each with integer answers. Like in the short answer part of the team round, students will not need to justify their answers to the individual round questions.

'''Tiebreaker round'''

The tiebreaker round will be similar to the ARML tiebreaker round. The top students with the same score on the individual round will be given a question to be solved in five minutes. The students will be able to submit an answer only once, and they will be ranked according to the time when they submit a correct answer.
