1. Do not open the booklet until told to do so by your teacher.
2. NO calculators, slide rules, log tables, maths stencils, mobile phones or other calculating aids are
permitted. Scribbling paper, graph paper, ruler and compasses are permitted, but are not essential.
3. Diagrams are NOT drawn to scale. They are intended only as aids.
4. There are 25 multiple-choice questions, each with 5 possible answers given and 5 questions that
require a whole number answer between 0 and 999. The questions generally get harder as you
work through the paper. There is no penalty for an incorrect response.
5. This is a competition not a test; do not expect to answer all questions. You are only competing
against your own year in your own State or Region so different years doing the same paper
are not compared.
6. Read the instructions on the answer sheet carefully. Ensure your name, school name and school
year are entered. It is your responsibility to correctly code your answer sheet.
7. When your teacher gives the signal, begin working on the problems.
tHe ansWer sHeet
1. Use only lead pencil.
2. Record your answers on the reverse of the answer sheet (not on the question paper) by FULLY
colouring the circle matching your answer.
3. Your answer sheet will be scanned. The optical scanner will attempt to read all markings even
if they are in the wrong places, so please be careful not to doodle or write anything extra on
the answer sheet. If you want to change an answer or remove any marks, use a plastic eraser
and be sure to remove all marks and smudges.
