Brief Description The objective of this activity is to promote the interest of students
and schools in the different areas of mathematics covered in the;high school curriculum this would be achieved by means of
.celebrating a Math Olympics competition on a yearly basis
In this competition each participating school can participate with20 -one team of up to three students to answer a multiple choice
question exam in each of the seven categories described below
