Each year the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) runs a series of competitions. On Tuesday February 3, 2015, twenty-one students from Baldwin School participated in the 2015 AMC 10/12 competition.
"The main purpose of the AMC 10/12 is to spur interest in mathematics and to develop talent through the excitement of solving challenging problems in a timed multiple-choice format."
The following students, in order of their scores, had the highest scores out of the 21 students from Baldwin who participated:
11th and 12th grade for the AMC 12
1) Sebastian Quinones - 12th2) Fernando Ortiz - 12thand tied in third place3) Roberto Reyna - 11th3) Camila Rivera - 11th
7th - 10th grade for the AMC 10
1) Devon Miller-Junk - 9th2) Garrett Miller-Junk - 7th3) Nicholas Binyon - 10th
We congratulate these fine mathematicians for their time and effort!
