The Philippines' medal harvest in the international mathematical stage continues as six young Filipino students secured three silver and three bronze medals in the 64th International Mathematical Olympiad held in Chiba, Japan on July 2 to 13.
Six Filipino students took home two bronze medals and four honorable mentions at the 63rd International Mathematical Olympiad, which was held in-person for the first time after two years.
Grade 12 student Bryce Ainsley Sanchez of Grace Christian College bested over two dozen other finalists at the 23rd Philippine Mathematical Olympiad (PMO) held online last March 19 to 20, earning the top title for the third year in a row.
This is only the second time, after the 58th IMO in 2017, that all six members of the Philippine team won a medal. The Philippines also ranked 31st out of 112 countries, up from last year’s 38th out of 107 countries.
After going through a series of competitions and intensive training, six high school students were chosen to represent the country in the 60th International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) from July 11-22 in Bath, United Kingdom.
