On the more recent ones, such as the 2000 AIME, I read:
The publication, reproduction, or communication of the problems or solutions of the AIME during the period when students are eligible to participate, seriously jeopardizes the integrity of the results. Duplication at any time via copier, telephone, email, world wide web, or media of any type is a violation of the copyright law.
Oh and there is a copyright notice on all packets. However, I've seen them distributed by math teachers before. If you do give out the problems, stick to old ones and don't give out a whole competition. I don't want to see copyright problems or face problems with "integrity of the results."

| I probably would do stuff like this if I got over my concentration issues. I have a great average in math but I can't concentrate. My teacher understands this and gives me all the time I need but a big contest like this would not. |

You do have 3 hours to complete it. How much time do you need?
I guess I won't post them. I didn't realize it was such a big deal, I mean they use different questions for the second one....  |

| They also make money by selling the questions later. |

| Really? My ADD just vanishes into thin air whenever math is involved. I do have a mild form of ADD. |

| I'm just naturally good at math and interested in this sort of stuff due to my Asperger's syndrome, a strange brain disorder that some consider a form of High-functioning autism. My mind is a strange blend of Asperger's syndrome and ADD... |
