We participate in the county math competitions, state competitions (University of Maryland Math Competition) and national competitions (AMC 10/AMC12, Interstellar Math Competition). During the club meetings we solve problems, and we present new material to prepare for the competitions.

In the RM Math Modeling Club, we focus on using math learned in school and applying this knowledge so we can understand real life problems. We participate in various different competitions, and prepare for them by discussing various different mathematical models such as the SIR model, Markov chains, and more! 

1. We participate in fun but intense competitions which test us on critical thinking and creativity.

2. We learn about applications of math and apply them in method we find interesting.

3. We bond together as a team by having fun meetings with food!

The Math Team participates in math competitions against other schools in Montgomery County on Wednesdays between September and February.

Math Team members also participate in competitions like AMC and are notified of tournaments held in locations such as JHU. On weeks when competitions are not scheduled, the team meets to review practice questions and have fun with math. 

1. Topics include algebra, number theory, probability, etc.

2. Team members qualify for later rounds of the competitions such as UMD's Math Competition and AMC.

3. The club is pretty relaxed and the main goal is to learn math together.
