Rocket City Math League (RCML) from 2008-2009

About Rocket City Math League (RCML) The Rocket City Math League is a year-long, mail-in contest consisting of four tests. The first test, the inter-school test, is a 15-question, 30-minute test in which all members of the school's math team work together to complete the test. Awards for this test are separate from awards for other test. Rounds 1, 2, and 3 (tests 2, 3, and 4) are 45-minute, 12-question tests, with questions varying in value between 1 and 4 points for a maximum of 25 possible points. Each student takes either a Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, or Discovery Test, depending on the math course the student is currently enrolled in. The top twenty individuals in each of the five math levels, as determined by the cumulative scores from the three rounds, will recieve individual awards. The top ten teams in each of the math levels, based on the sum of the top five individual scores from the school in each division, will also recieve team awards.
