MATH CIRCLE COMPETITION TEAM
Sundays 1:30-3:30 p.m.
Established in 2012, the Math Circle Competition Team (MCCT) meets weekly on LSU's campus to practice for national-level high school math and coding competitions.
Our competition team at Harvard-MIT Mathematics Tournament, Nov 2018.
The team practices every Sunday and is the only national-level math competition team in Louisiana. Math Circle helps to subsidize competition expenses like travel and housing, minimizing per student cost of tournament attendance.
Math practice is held every Sunday from 1:30-3:30 PM. Please note that our practice time has been changed from previous years.
MCCT focuses on preparing 8th-12th grade students for the American Mathematics Competition and engaging students in higher level mathematics! Click on the pdf to learn more about our competition team, including many resources for self-study and a list of notable competitions.
Congratulations to our 2019 American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) Qualifiers!
