WVA sponsors the Oregon ARML team meetings, which take place once a month on Saturdays from October to March. The Annual Oregon ARML teams' local competition is hosted by WVA in April.
The 2024 National ARML Competition will be held on May 31 – June 1, 2024 at the University of Nevada Reno. We anticipate opening registration in April 2024, with a registration deadline in late April.
The American Regions Mathematics League (ARML), is an annual, national high school mathematics team competition held simultaneously at four locations in the United States: the University of Iowa, Penn State, University of Nevada, Reno, and the University of Alabama in Huntsville.[1] Past sites have included San Jose State University, Rutgers University, UNLV, Duke University, and University of Georgia.
Teams consist of 15 members, which usually represent a large geographic region (such as a state) or a large population center (such as a major city). Some schools also field teams. The competition is held in June, on the first Saturday after Memorial Day.
In 2022, 120 teams competed with about 1800 students.[2]
ARML problems cover a wide variety of mathematical topics including algebra, geometry, number theory, combinatorics, probability, and inequalities. Calculus is not required to successfully complete any problem, but it may facilitate solving the problem more quickly or efficiently. While part of the competition is short-answer based, there is a cooperative team round, and a proof-based power question (also completed as a team). ARML problems are harder than most high school mathematics competitions.
