秀色短视频 math students excel in international math competition
秀色短视频 math students Mostafa Fatehi and Jonathan Murley, both of Charlottetown, earned some of the best marks ever by 秀色短视频 math students participating in an international math competition during a competition hosted by Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University recently.
This success comes hot on the heels of their second-place finish at the Atlantic Provinces Council on the Sciences鈥� 31st annual Mathematics, Statistics and Computer Science Conference held in Fredericton recently.
The international math competition at Virginia Tech attracted 397 students from 67 schools from across the United States and Canada. The two-and-a-half-hour competition is often used by large schools to choose their best math students for upcoming competitions.
A third-year math and physics student, Fatehi tied for 16th place with 40 out of 70 possible points.
鈥淭his is the best score ever posted by a 秀色短视频 student in this contest,鈥� says Dr. Dan Ryan, chair of the 秀色短视频 Mathematics and Statistics Department. 鈥淚n the words of Dr. David Horrocks, the students鈥� math coach, 鈥業t鈥檚 exciting to see 秀色短视频 up there with the likes of Princeton, Duke, and Purdue!鈥� In fact, of the 15 who scored higher than Mostafa, most were from either Princeton or Duke.鈥�
Murley, a second-year math student, tied for 87th place, says Ryan, which is an excellent result for a second-year student.
鈥淭o put the achievements of both these students into perspective, 58% of the students who wrote this exam scored 0 out of 70 possible points!鈥�
