Design Tech Math Tournament

The D.Tech Math Club is hosting our biggest competition of the year, the Design Tech Math Tournament (DTMT), in early March. This is a competitive yet welcoming event for middle school students in the Bay Area. Competitors face a variety of creative individual and team problems in algebra, geometry, number theory, probability, and combinatorics that reward clever thinking and careful work. Modeled on established contests such as Mathcounts and the AMC 8/10, the tournament gives students a chance to test their skills, learn new strategies, and meet other like-minded students!

This year's DTMT features an exciting and varied lineup of math challenges. Students will begin by selecting two individual tests from a set of topics: Algebra, Geometry, Combinatorics, Discrete Math, and a specially designed 6th Grade Test. Next, participants will team up for two collaborative rounds: the Sequence Round and the Team Round, where strategic thinking and teamwork take center stage. After the competition, students can take part in an activities session featuring Estimation, Puzzles, and Math Modeling—or enjoy a well-earned break with games and origami. At the same time, any tiebreakers will be resolved in a fast-paced, Mathcounts-style Countdown Round. The tournament will conclude with a Closing Ceremony where winners and prizes will be announced. DTMT will run from 4:30 to 9:30. Dinner is provided, and a $10 fee will be charged to help support our event. A detailed schedule will be published closer to the competition date.
