I wish that similar program could be run in my country. I remember that my math teacher in high school told us about math competition with finals in Paris. You had to solve few problems and send solution by mail in some preselection zero round. I've tried it by myself and it was early-Internet era. I've spend many hours in libraries and tried to find as many books as I can to get some knowledge (and I had problems with geometry). I haven't solved all problems but I send those which I had ... and never get any answer. It was fun anyway and I've learned a lot, but I think young people need some guidance.

In india, it's such a shitty system that even if someone gets to know about IMO in 10th grade, it's considered late. I had a friend who was good at math, most intelligent in her class, and with the toppers. We never fking knew wth IMO was until we got in 10th grade. She has an extraordinary passion for math and is ready to do any kind of hardwork to reach and become one of the indian team members. When she called a private institution who got it's students to win at IMO, they told her "you are too late now, please, students start since they are in 8th grade, we won't accept you." She told me that she had to hold her tears back, and that she won't rely upon these people. I believe in her. I know she will reach there someday. Will give you an update ;)

I wish that similar program could be run in my country. I remember that my math teacher in high school told us about math competition with finals in Paris. You had to solve few problems and send solution by mail in some preselection zero round. I've tried it by myself and it was early-Internet era. I've spend many hours in libraries and tried to find as many books as I can to get some knowledge (and I had problems with geometry). I haven't solved all problems but I send those which I had ... and never get any answer. It was fun anyway and I've learned a lot, but I think young people need some guidance.

In india, it's such a shitty system that even if someone gets to know about IMO in 10th grade, it's considered late. I had a friend who was good at math, most intelligent in her class, and with the toppers. We never fking knew wth IMO was until we got in 10th grade. She has an extraordinary passion for math and is ready to do any kind of hardwork to reach and become one of the indian team members. When she called a private institution who got it's students to win at IMO, they told her "you are too late now, please, students start since they are in 8th grade, we won't accept you." She told me that she had to hold her tears back, and that she won't rely upon these people. I believe in her. I know she will reach there someday. Will give you an update ;)
