I'm curious on your response to GP's question. Have you heard of AHSME, AMC, or AIME?

Nobody mentioned them in high school (1997) until I heard of them online and got my school to participate. 30 kids took the AHSME. Only one qualified for the AIME. And nobody qualified for IMO (though I tell myself I was close).

I believe the 1 in a million number.

Never heard of those either. And I took the highest level math courses offered. The only competition I can remember is participating in is Academic Decathlon.
