Mexico Earns 2 Silver Medals and Secures Spot in International Mathematical Olympiad
Mexico has just completed its second consecutive participation in the International Mathematical Science Competition (IMSC) in Beijing, earning two silver medals, three bronze medals, and an honorable mention. This achievement qualifies the national team for the 65th International Mathematical Olympiad in Bath, England. The medal winners included Rogelio Guerrero Reyes, Héctor Juan Villareal Corona, Takumi Higashida Martínez, José Andrés Zamora Moncada, Mateo Iván Latapí Acosta, and Emiliano Hernández Barranco.
The Mexican delegation was led by professors Ignacio Barreda Bribiesca, Eduardo García Hernández, and Eric Ransom Treviño.
