This is an AoPSWiki Word of the Week for June 6-12 |
The American Regions Math League (ARML) is a mathematical problem solving competition primarily for U.S. high school students.
How to participate
Find out if your area has a team already. Contact ARML for details. If your area does not already have a team, ask ARML how to start one.
See the How to join an ARML team wiki page for more info. Teams have 15 students.
History
ARML was started in 1976 as a math competition.
Format
The ARML has several different events:
- A team round, in which the entire team works on problems
- A power round, where the questions are proof-oriented
- An individual round, where each individual takes a test
- Two relay rounds, where the answer to one problem is necessary to solve another problem
- A super relay

Books
There are four books of past ARML problems, though some of them are out of print and/or hard to find.
