For many students, the two most dreaded words in the English language are “math test.” Not so for Gabriel James Valdez, grade 5 from Merryland Montessori and High School, Inc., and Jerome Austin N. Te, grade 6, from Jubilee Christian Academy who obtained an impeccable performance in the Final Round of CREST Math Olympiad conducted online in January 2021.
Though both obtained perfect scores, Valdez is placed first in the international rank while Te is third since there were two participants from other countries who finished few minutes ahead of him in their grade group.
And what is more, there are two other Filipino mathletes who took the second spot in the international rank, they are Arianne Ghinelle L. Braganza, grade 9 from BHC Educational Institution, Inc, and Matthew Charles C. Carpio, grade 10 from the University of Baguio Science High School. These four Filipino number crunchers will be awarded with achiever’s trophies and merit certificates. The Philippines has also garnered a total of sixty other awards, 18 gold, 18 silver, 8 bronze medals and 18 merit certificates.
