The APMO is an annual regional mathematics competition for high school students. Contestants have to
hurdle a four-hour paper consisting of five original problems. Unlike the International Mathematical
Olympiad, this competition is administered locally by organizers from participating countries from the
Asian Pacific Region. While there is no limit on the number of local participants who can take the exam,
only the top 10 students from each country are considered for the official scores. The overall results are
posted in https://apmo-official.org/year_report/2024. Problems and solutions are also available in the
APMO webpage.
The organizer for the Philippines is the Mathematical Society of the Philippines (MSP). The IMO
Training Team invited the National Finalists and some high performing contestants from the Area Stage
of the 26th Philippine Mathematical Olympiad to take the APMO last March 12, 2024, at the University
of the Philippines Diliman Institute of Mathematics.
