The Hanoi Department of Education and Training, in collaboration with the city’s Mathematics Association, held a ceremony at Chu Van An High School in Hanoi on March 13 to honour winners of the 2016 Hanoi Open Mathematics Competition (HOMC).


The organising board presents awards to first prize winners.

The organising board presented 36 first, 104 second and 189 third prizes to the 329 most outstanding students.

Taking place on March 12-13, the 2016 HOMC drew the participation of nearly 1,000 students from 47 provinces and cities around the country.

The competition was held at three exam locations: Hanoi, Dak Lak and Dong Thap. In Hanoi, there were 706 contestants from 23 northern localities who competed in senior and junior age groups. 

Initiated in 2004, HOMC has attracted a large number of students across the country. The exam questions and answers were presented in English.

The annual event aims to improve the quality of teaching and studying of mathematics in English in secondary and high schools, particularly in Hanoi.

The competition is expected to attract the participation of students from other countries in Southeast Asia.
