OMG I took the worst math test ever today. It’s called the Putnam. It’s 6 hours, and 12 questions. A brief peek at former tests reveals the difficulty level. The median score is low —- in the single digits —- for a test that is out of 120 points. Oh well. I’d be happy with a score somewhere in the 20’s, however we won’t find out until March.
My performance left some to be desired. I goofed on some easy problems and missed easy proofs to other ones. Oh well. I’ve got 3 more years to take it still. And there’s always room for improvement.
