Welcome!The Michigan Mathematics Prize Competition is offered by the Michigan Section of the Mathematical Association of America to encourage students to develop their interests and abilities in mathematics.Part I of the MMPC is open to all students in Michigan high schools. This exam consists of 40 multiple-choice questions involving topics from high school mathematics. From approximately 14,000 participants in Part I, the top 1,000 students are invited to take Part II of the MMPC. There students work on five challenging problems and write their solutions providing full justification and proof of their claims. The students with the top 100 scores in the two parts of the competition are honored at an awards program. Approximately $21,000 in scholarships ranging from at least $250 to $2,600 will be awarded this year. The host institution for the 49th, 50th, and 51st MMPC is Oakland University, Rochester, MI.
