The best Bulgarian mathematics students won 5 medals at the most prestigious mathematics competition in the world for the year.

The Olympiad was held from 11 to 22 July in the UK and brought together 609 students from 108 countries.

The silver medals were won by Marin Hristov (12th grade, Sofia High School of Mathematics), Angel Hristov (11th grade, High School of Mathematics in Burgas) and Bilyana Dimitrova (12th grade, Sofia High School of Mathematics), who achieved the fourth result in the world among the 81 participating girls.

The bronze medals went to Veselin Markovic (11th grade, High School of Mathematics in Varna) and Boris Gachevski (12th grade, Sofia High School of Mathematics), and very little was enough for a medal for Viktor Kostadinov (12th grade, School of Mathematics in Plovdiv), who received an honorary diploma.
