UKMT Olympiad Reports
In secondary school, I was fortunate to participate in many Olympiad camps, thanks to the fantastic UK Mathematics Trust. They formed some of the highlights of my school years. Selection is by invitation only – so students put in immense dedication! Some reports from these events below:
- IMO Coordinator – report part 1, part 2
- Balkan Maths Olympiad 2016 – full report on official UK IMO site
- Joint UK-Hungary IMO Camp – report from the 2016 one
- Leeds Summer School 2017 – from a Senior student perspective
The UKMT also hosts many other activities including the Oxford Initial Training Camp, Leeds Summer Schools, Team Math Challenges and more.
UKMT BMO Scripts
For IMO selection, the UK has multiple stages – the Senior Math Challenge, British Math Olympiad Round 1, Round 2 – then the Top 20 advance to the Trinity Camp for several more selection tests. This selection is highly competitive, and upon request by a friend – I provide my BMO scripts in the hope that they will help future students.
