Although he knows that many find his favorite subject difficult, Humberto Riverón Valdés – bronze medal winner in the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) held in Thailand this past July – notes that the notion is relative.
”For me, gaining a Philosophy degree is one of the most difficult things I could imagine. I have an affinity for Math, I like it,” he states without hesitation.
Humberto has been taking part in global competitions since 10th grade. He participated in the Central American tournament in his first year of high-school. In 11th grade he competed in Latin American and International competitions, during which he received an honorable mention. Despite the rigor of these events, now in his final year of study Humberto’s chances of winning greatly improved thanks to better preparation.
Finally in 2015, he reaped the benefits of a well defined competition and training strategy.
