At the mathematics society, we are trying to slowly build a tradition that brings the community together. What better way to do this than with a simple integration bee contest?

Final Showdown

The final showdown follows the same rules of the MIT Integration Bee contest, and uses questions from their homepage.

The rules go as follows.

  • Five questions in five minutes is for each round.
  • No (+c), no simplification required. Answer must be boxed or circled.
  • The best of three rounds wins.
The contestants are clearly taking this matter very seriously.
