Important Qualifying Problem Information

Coaches: Please note that if you have a student with disabilities who requires special conditions, you will need to contact us well before the QP is due. Any team that makes it to National Finals must sit their booklet under the same conditions as the QP.

Coaches: Please try to keep to the due dates. It is very difficult to get your booklets marked when they arrive at the same time as the competitive booklets.
