PINKLETES
Our Competitions
Our competitions are designed to challenge girls through 6-8th grade. Each test involves 10 questions that progressively get more difficult. Each test will focus on 3 topics that we'll announce. Additionally, each question can be solved without a calculator, is in free-response style, and cover topics that are discussed in our Learn section. Simply circling an answer is not enough to earn full points, participants must also provide sufficient work. Students will receive instructions roughly a week before their test through email and will submit their work by emailing it to Pinkletes@gmail.com the day of the exam.
