Pi5NY Bronx Invitational Tournament

We are returning to our roots with a Bronx-invitational tournament, hosted in our very own Joseph Jimenez Gymnasium at the Urban Assembly for Applied Math and Science. Following an Olympic-style opening ceremony—complete with a parade of Mathletes and the raising of the official Pi-nata—each team pits their wits and math skills against others in their grade in a 45 minute competition.

There are a number of different problems with point values ranging from 100-500 points meaning that, as well as answering as many as you can correctly, teams have to strategize how many hard/easy ones to attempt. The team with the highest score wins their grade.

Apart from being a fun, frazzled, full-focus day of inspirational math, there will be an awards ceremony to close the proceedings, at which the Grand Pi Trophy is presented to the division winner with the highest overall score. Each division's winning team will receive a Pi trophy, while each member of the 2nd and 3rd place teams is awarded a medal.
