    B Strategies for Solving Mathematical 'Riddles' in Scholarship Tests

    I took a test for a scholarship that had mathematical "riddles" just like Micromass' challenges. It was multiple choice and I guessed for some, but others I was able to do or at least use process of elimination. I didn't think I did that well, but I advanced to the second round. Could I have...

    Challenge Micromass' big statistics challenge

    If we're having a thread about probability theory, then we must have one on statistics too! The following questions are all very open-ended and thus multiple answers may seem possible. Your goal is to find a strategy to find the answer to the questions. Furthermore, you must provide some kind of...

    Challenge Micromass' big probability challenge

    Probability theory is very nice. It contains many questions which are very easy to state, but not so easily solved. Let's see if you can solve these questions. For an answer to count, not only the answer must be given but also a detailed explanation. Any use of outside sources is allowed, but...

    Challenge Aren't you tired of counterexamples already?

    And we continue our parade of counterexamples! Most of them are again in the field of real analysis, but I put some other stuff in there as well. This time the format is a bit different. We present 10 statements that are all of the nature ##P## if and only if ##Q##. As it turns out, only one of...

    Well, the last thread of counterexamples was pretty fun. So why not do it again! Again, I present you a list with 10 mathematical statements. The only rub now is that only ##9## are false, thus one of the statements is true. Provide a counterexample to the false statements and a proof for the...

    I adore counterexamples. They're one of the most beautiful things about math: a clevery found ugly counterexample to a plausible claim. Below I have listed 10 statements about basic analysis which are all false. Your job is to find the correct counterexample. Some are easy, some are not so easy...

    Which Degree is Better: Micromass or Kevin_Axion?

    Settle a debate me and micromass have been having recently, it's simple, pure math or engineering for an undergraduate degree. Consider all factors including employability, enjoyability, research prospects, interest, depth, applicability etc.
