According to teacher Tran Van Nga - Vice Principal of Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted: "During the exam days, the weather in Yakutsk city, Russian Federation was extremely harsh. That greatly affected the health and exam process of students. Overcoming difficulties, Tran Huu Binh Minh excellently won the Silver Medal. As for Phan Tuan Linh, because it was too cold, he had a nosebleed on both exam days and could not complete the exam, only receiving a Certificate of Merit from the Organizing Committee".

This is the first result of Nghe An students at the 2017 Olympic competitions. After Physics, next July, two students Nguyen Canh Hoang and Hoang Nghia Tuyen of Phan Boi Chau High School for the Gifted will continue to participate in the International Chemistry and Mathematics Olympiad in Thailand and Brazil./.
