2022 Oho Mathematics Contest
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our lives have been disrupted and we have been forced to live in a chaotic world for more than a year. We now observe people getting vaccinated and have a glimpse of hope to go back to normal life soon.
One of signs our lives are going back to normal is that the annual Ohio Mathematics Contest will be held again in April. But it will be somewhat different this year: Instead of face-to-face gathering for taking tests, it will be done online over two days: April 24-25, 2021. Some details are given below and more details will follow as soon as they are finalized.
