The first round is 6x6s (last year had 8) to be solved in 15 minutes, and the second round seems to be the same 4 classic/4 variant structure as last year, with the only difference being that instead of two rounds of 30 minutes each, it is one round of 60 minutes (hence the timings of 40 and 42 for 2nd and 3rd places). |

With such short notice, how can one living in eastern zone states like West Bengal, Bihar, Assam etc. plan their travel and stay. ![]() ![]() ![]() Edited by shera90 2013-07-20 11:57 PM |

Yes of course, I think so. I'll wait for the organizers to confirm but I don't see how that helps gain any unfair advantage, since in the end you'll have to submit the booklet that's provided only. |

Akash Doulani 3. Himani Shah Modi 4. Dileep Singh Congrats to the winners. Two newcomers, and one of them ended up winning the round, that's pleasantly surprising. I suppose Ritesh couldn't find the time to make it to the rounds this year? Wonder what the timings are of these 4. |

Posts: 1 Country : India | MrinaalMittal posted @ 2013-07-21 5:52 PM Congrats to the winners, it was a great event, but I would like to ask if it is possible to receive a participation certificate for qualifying to the second round as it would help me get admission to one of the Ivy Leagues as I am in class 11. I submitted my second round paper 2 minutes before the time allotted so it would really make a great difference if I could get a certificate for the same. It is my earnest request for you to look into the matter with utmost seriousness and inform me regarding the same. Regards Mrinaal Mittal Email id- mrinal_mittal21@yahoo.co.in |

Posts: 542 ![]() ![]() ![]() Country : India | rajeshk posted @ 2013-07-22 5:33 PM Thanks Rakesh for the results. Nice to see so many people completing the test. Chennai results brings one more point in my mind that in case if the Top player (Rishi in this case) make a single mistake he is immediately pushed to 12th rank. Same thing happened last year when Prasanna and Tejal missed being part of finals. I think this we can improve for next year to include more puzzles or decrease time, so that best player is barely able to solve everything in time which is the format being used for IPC every year. This will make sure that strongest players are not penalized so much for making very small mistake. Edited by rajeshk 2013-07-22 5:34 PM |
