Mini Report
I was selected as one of the 40 participants of this competition. I competed individually. Prior to the competition, there were two sessions where Prof. Tahir Ahmad tutored the competitors on past year questions of the competition. We competed on October 15th 2022. The questions were given via Whatsapp and the competitors answered them within the time limit. The whole session was held through Google Meet and the camera had to be on during the answering session.
Self Reflection
This program has greatly helped me develop better thinking skills. During the workshop prior to the competition, I was exposed with many different high-level mathematical problems. Prof. Tahir Ahmad helped us understand them and how to work through the problems systematically. This competition has given me a new experience on how mathematics competition are held. The questions were very tough and some of which I have never seen before too. Despite that, I am very glad I joined the competition.
