Who Wants to Be a Mathematician is a game in which high school students use their mathematics skills in a contest to answer mathematics questions. Over 10,000 students have competed since the inaugural game in 2001. Attracting many of the nation’s most mathematically talented students, the game features contestants who have also been finalists in the Intel Science and Engineering Fair, have won the Davidson Institute Scholarship and Discovery Channel Young Scientist Awards, and have been educated at MIT, Harvard, Stanford, and other top-flight institutions.
