I think that is the only thing you could possibly put on your resume. An academic award from the site would not be reputable. It'd be the equivalent of stating your Distinctions from all those Maths and Geography competitions from years 7 through to 11 (I have heaps piled up, worthless really).

i keep my maths HDs from those competitions on my resumé. it can be relevant for certain jobs that you apply for, imo.

Lol, I don't think so. An HD in a westpac maths competition from grade 4 won't land you anything. An HD in a 3rd year complex analysis subject though, now that might do some persuasion.

not grade 4, just yrs10-12 (i didn't do most of the others). relevant certainly for applying for my degree, but also in terms of achievements for some high school/uni tutoring jobs (in my experience, people like to know they're being tutored by someone who did well, regardless of the importance).
and i'm doing complex analysis next semester :) shall be fun. currently doing analysis 2 = topology, measure theory & integration, and hilbert spaces. exciting stuff.

That sure sounds like fun :D. What field of maths do you want to major in?

no idea yet. i loved elementary number theory last year, so after i do complex analysis next semester i should be able to do some analytic number theory, which sounds kinda cool - prime number theorem, riemann zeta function etc.
i'm enjoying analysis a lot too, so i'll see how i keep going with that. and i'll do my first algebra course next semester, though i don't think i'll like that quite as much as analysis. we'll see.
