Sprint+Round

You are here: Information --> Math Competitions --> MathCounts --> Sprint Round

The Sprint Round tests the ability to work under a time constraint. There are 30 questions for 40 minutes. The contestants work individually, and no calculators are allowed. Each question is usually worth one point, with no penalty for getting an answer wrong. The first question is the easiest, and they get harder as the test continues.

This is normally the easiest round.
