North Carolina has been offering a State Math Contest for 18 years.
The comprehensive test (separate from the Algebra I, Algebra II and
Geometry finals) rewards top scorers with scholarships from several
universities, including Duke.
You can get more information, including where to obtain past
tests, from Mike Kestner at the state dept. of public instruction.
