Notably, Pham Mai Phuong achieved the highest score in the entire competition. The three contestants with the highest scores in the competition were Pham Mai Phuong (Vietnam), who won the gold medal and achieved the highest score, and two other contestants from Singapore and Ukraine.

ICho 46 was held in Vietnam, with the participation of 77 countries and territories.

Two female students from Hanoi-Amsterdam High School for Gifted Students in Hanoi have excellently won two gold medals for the Vietnamese delegation at Icho 2014.

Dr. Nguyen Quoc Chinh - Head of the Vietnamese IChO 2014 delegation, said: “This year, the members of the Vietnamese team demonstrated their abilities very well. The theoretical part was very long and difficult, while the practical part this year was significantly better than in previous competitions abroad because the students were quite well prepared. However, there were a few minor points in the practical part, some calculations were not very careful. Their scores were in the range of 40-50 out of a maximum of 60 points. However, compared to the general standard, they still performed very well.”

Mai Phuong burst into tears in her teacher's arms.

Previously, candidates completed the theoretical exam on July 25th and the practical exam on July 23rd. Thus, the entire examination process has been completed safely and to a high standard.

Icho 2015 will be held in Azerbaijan.
