Pre-Final Round Information

Participants who solved the Qualification Round successfully are qualified to participate in the
Pre-Final Round. The problems will be more challenging but also more engaging!

Problems and Points

The Pre-Final Round consists of six problems that vary in difficulty, points, and subject. All
topics from geometry to number theory are included, as well as real-world research material.
There are three types of problems that give you 4, 6, and 8 points:

ˆ 2x Basic Problems (4 Points)


The Pre-Final Round includes two basic problems (lower difficulty).

ˆ 2x Advanced Problems (6 Points)


The Pre-Final Round includes two advanced problems (higher difficulty).

ˆ 2x Special-Creativity Problems (8 Points)


The Pre-Final Round includes two special-creativity problems whose experimental format
varies each year. Usually, one of them presents a real-world example of mathematical
research or requires particular originality.

It is possible to reach up to 36 points in total. Participants need to score at least 16/20/24


points (Junior/Youth/Senior) to qualify for the Final Round.

on, you have four days until Sunday, 26 January 2025 to solve as many problems as possible.
You will have to submit your solution online via a dedicated submission form. You can choose if
you would like to submit the solution as a handwritten version or as a digitally typed document.
We recommend writing the solution into the dedicated blank space on the problem sheets of
the Pre-Final Round. Please highlight your final solutions.

Registration and Costs

If you succeed in the Qualification Round, you can choose to participate in the Pre-Final Round
by registering from your participant account.

The registration deadline for the Pre-Final Round is Tuesday, 21 January 2025.

This educational opportunity comes with diverse costs, including those for human resources,
technical infrastructure, materials and more. While our sponsors cover some of these expenses,
we need to ask participants to cover this year’s Pre-Final Round registration costs of 11 EUR
to make IYMC possible on an international level.

The registration costs are necessary to provide the resources required to run a competition
at this scale. This includes the costs for human resources and submission evaluations, particu-
larly of the comprehensive Pre-Final Round, amongst other expenses. There are no other costs
for participants throughout this year’s competition. You can find detailed information about
the registration costs here: https://iymc.info/costs

To register for the Pre-Final Round, please log into your participant account.

The results of the Pre-Final Round will be announced on Tuesday, 4 February 2025.
