of America. It contains solutions to the problems from 27 national and regional contests featured in the earlier book, together with selected problems (without solutions) from national and regional contests given during 2001. In many cases multiple solutions are provided in order to encourage students to compare different problem-solving strategies. This collection is intended as practice for the serious student who wishes to improve his or her performance on the USA Math Olympiad (USAMO) and Team Selection Test (TST). Some of the problems are comparable to the USAMO in that they came from national contests. Others are harder, as some countries first have a national Olympiad, and later one or more exams to select a team for the IMO. And some problems come from regional international contests (“m ini-IMOs”). Different nations have different mathematical cultures, so you will find some of these problems extremely hard and some rather eas y. We have tried to present a wide variety of problems, especially from those countries that have often done well at the IMO. Each contest has its own time limit. We have not furnished this information, because we have not always included complete exams. As a rule of thumb, most contests allow time ranging between one-half to one full hour per problem. The problems themselves should provide much enjoyment for all those fascinated by solving challenging mathematics questions. ix Acknowledgments Thanks to the following participants of the Mathematical Olympiad Summer Program who helped in preparing and pro ofreading so- lutions: Reid Barton, Steve Byrnes, Gabriel Carroll, Kamaldeep Gandhi, Stephen Guo, Luke Gustafson, Michael Hamburg, Daniel Jerison, Daniel Kane, Kiran Kedlaya, Ian Le, Tiankai Liu, Po-Ru Loh, Sean Markan, Alison Miller, Christopher Moore, Gregory Price, Michael Rothenberg, Inna Zakharevich, Tony Zhang, and Yan Zhang.
