Putnam Class With Big Enrollment

The William Lowell Putnam Exam
is one of the most challenging of undergraduate math exams. Georgia Tech has a
history of having some individuals score very well on the exam.

The high score of 39 last year was by Yakov Kerzhner, now a grad student at New York University.

This year's preparation for the exam has a new twist, the students are receiving one hour's credit. (I wonder what the grading scale will be? The median score on the Putnam is 1, so will
Professor Wang, who teaches the class, set one point be a pass? )

One thing will be like last year: The Pizza will be free!
