Balkan Mathematical Olympiad

The UK has competed as a guest team in the Balkan Mathematical Olympiad since 2005, with the 2008 entry being as a joint guest team with Ireland. An olympiad photo gallery is also available.

BMOS policy is that no UK team member competes more than once in the Balkan Mathematical Olympiad; when sending teams to this competition, we aim to extend opportunities to participate in international competitions to more people rather than to send the absolutely best team. The team for this competition is generally selected at the end of the Trinity olympiad training and selection camp, along with the squad of 8 or 9 who will form the IMO team and reserve.

Teams consist of six people; the UK does not normally name a reserve. There is a single paper of four questions, each marked out of 10 points. For past papers, see Mathlinks.
