The order of difficulty of the problems indicated by the scores, starting with the hardest, was 7,5,6,1,3,2,4.
Several students failed to put their registration number on their solutions. In particular, one student obtained at least 20 points, but we were unable to determine who he/she was.
I would like to thank all the schools who took part, and I hope you will all take part again next year. I also hope that many schools who did not take part this year will take part next year. Watch these WEB pages; even if you do not get an invitation, we will still be delighted for you to take part provided you fill in the registration forms before the closing date for entries.
The most likely date for the contest next year is Saturday, October 29, 2011. Occasionally announcements about the competition will be posted in the newsgroup sci.math.
