EGMO History

The inaugural EGMO was held at Murray Edwards College in Cambridge, UK, in April 2012, and was a great success, the official website said.

‘Maths is not all about calculations’

One of the Indian participants, Shreya Gupta, told The Times of India: “Maths is not about calculations — it’s like forming pictures in your head.”

Silver medalist Sanjana Chacko told the newspaper: “We each have a way that works for us.”

According to reports, Mandhada and Chacko are eligible to participate in the event next year.
