INTEGIRLS PROBLEM WRITING

We are the INTEGIRLS Problem Writing Team! We create tests for the fall and spring chapter competitions for every chapter of INTEGIRLS (except the Bay Area and Indianapolis chapters!), and we also run INTEGIRLS’ Problem of the Month series. On this page, you’ll find information about the current Problem Writing Team, how to enter the Problem of the Month and how to apply to join the INTEGIRLS Problem Writing Team.

Minerva is a rising senior at University High School in Irvine, California. She is very passionate about math and wants to share her love with more students in the math community. After competing in an INTEGIRLS competition, Minerva was impressed by how math can establish so many connections between people, so she joined the INTEGIRLS community as a problem writer.
