Procedure
Each supervisor, coach, advisor, or captain should fill out the registration form once for each school or organization.
Upon registering, the supervisor will receive an email from us with another form. The supervisor should fill out the form once for each team they are responsible for. On the form, they will indicate what time the team will take the test. This form must be completed at least 48 hours before the team wants to take the competition.
For each team, at the time they indicated to take the competition, we will send the supervisor the problems as a PDF and the Google Forms answer sheet. The supervisor should forward the problems and answer sheet to their team. The answer sheet should only be completed once per team, ideally by the captain.
The answer sheet must be submitted within 100 minutes of our email being sent to the supervisor containing the problems. Please contact us via email (trinmacnyc@gmail.com) if you experience any technical difficulties.
Results and solutions will be released shortly after the competition ends.
