The International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), held this summer on the Sunshine Coast in Australia, is the world’s most prestigious mathematics competition for high school students. Representing Germany, David, a Grade 12 student at BBIS, achieved an outstanding bronze medal after two days of intense problem-solving against peers from more than 100 countries.
“I had a pretty good idea that I would get a bronze medal right after finishing the problems on the last day. Of course, I had been aiming and hoping for silver - unfortunately, it didn’t work out this time. Still, I’m very happy to have earned bronze, as it’s a very respectable result.”
