The University of Waterloo's Euclid, Fryer and other contests were written last week. The next one is the Gauss 7 and Gauss 8 contests - in May 2025. Students interested in participating in these contests should communicate with your teacher/school for registration, and it should be free to the student. Here is a great grade 7 practice problem.
