ACS International School Doha has received top accolades for the third year in a row in their participation in the AMC Math Olympiads, and has become the first school administering AMC in Qatar since 2021.
ACS Doha Mathletes also participate in several Math Olympiads throughout the year including ASMA (American Scholastic Mathematics Competition), where the ACS Doha Junior team won first place and ACS Senior team placed second in a competition of over 169 international public and private schools worldwide. Similarly, the three highest scoring student awards were received by Nikita Bortnichek, Amira Jafri, and Anton Schlegel. The Mathletics club consists of over 20 students ranging from ages 9 to 18, and share a passion for mathematical problem solving.
“As with sports and other competitions, these Math Olympiads instil structure, perseverance, and assist students to not only compete with other schools and teams, but internally compete with their own scores and performance, bettering themselves with each competition,” said Hamid Hamidoglu, MYP / IBDP Mathematics Teacher. With the exceeding performance in Mathematics at ACS Doha, AP (Advanced Placement) Math courses are now being offered.
