Success of Our Students at the International Mathematics Competition IYMC

This week, the international mathematics competition “International Youth Math Challenge” was concluded. The competition is intended for high school and university students from all around the world. Schools and universities from more than 100 countries participated, placing it among the larger international competitions of this kind.

The competition is held in three rounds: the qualification round, the pre-final round, and the final round. Its aim is to provide young participants with the opportunity to test their problem-solving skills and expand their mathematical knowledge through a variety of challenging tasks. In the university category, this year’s winner was a student from the University of Padua (Università degli Studi di Padova). Our students also participated successfully and achieved the following results:

Borna Molnar, Zara Bičvić, and David Iličić won silver medals and ranked among the top 5% of participants, while Dorian Sikirica won a bronze medal, placing him among the top 7% of competitors.

These results confirm the knowledge, dedication, and analytical abilities of our students, who successfully distinguished themselves in international competition. Participation in such competitions represents a valuable experience and further contributes to fostering interest in mathematics and scientific research.
