Secrets of the Mathematical Contest in Modeling 下载积分: 体力 -2 点
这是一位美国学生用自己的切身参赛经验写的一份论文，他曾经参加过三次，第一次是成功参与奖（三等奖），第二次是honorable mention（二等奖/提名奖），第三次是OUTSTANDING（特等奖），在以后的学习中还曾指导过其他队参加mcm/icm，他的经验对即将参加mcm/icm的同学来说可以说是很难得的！现附上论文的introduction，让大家先睹为快！
The following is my own personal strategy of how to attack the MCM. It is certainly not the
only way, and I make no claims that it is the best way. Participating in the MCM was the most
fun, challenging, exciting, frustrating, and exhausting thing I ever did as an undergraduate.
I participated three years: The first time, I was a barely out of Calculus, and the MCM hit
me like a freight train. I was totally unprepared, utterly blindsided, and my team ended up
with a Successful Participant ranking. I spent hours analyzing what went wrong, and plotting
my revenge. The second year, we did better, but I still didn’t have a handle on things, and
we didn’t know where to attack, ending up with an Honorable Mention. By the third year
(’98), I was out for blood. I went over the previous years problems, studying the anatomy
of a good **, relentlessly preparing for the intellectual battle of a lifetime. This time
my team clicked, and we annihilated the problem – receiving an Outstanding, the highest
possible ranking. In the years since I graduated, I have coached teams both at the University
of Colorado at Boulder 2000 - 2003, and at Carroll College 2004 - present, so I have seen a
lot of teams succeed and others that didn’t do as well as they could. The advice that follows
comes from my own personal experience both in the contest and as a coach. This is how I
would attack the MCM today.
