2011 Australian Mathematics Competition (AMC), saying that their
recent achievements "are testaments to the well-rounded and
world-class talent of the Filipino."
"We are proud to congratulate our Pinoy Math whiz kids for their
recent achievements in the 2011 Australian Mathematics Competition,"
Presidential Deputy Spokesperson Abigail Valte said in a statement.
Adrian Reginald Sy, a high school student from St. Jude Catholic
School in Manila, garnered a perfect score in this year's AMC. Sy was
one of 27 students worldwide who got a perfect score in the
competition.
Besides Sy, 10 Filipino math whiz kids were awarded this year, as 60
other Filipino students placed in the top two percent of the 300,000
students who took the AMC test on August 4 here in Manila.
"Sy, along with the ten Filipino participants who were awarded for
their high scores in the same test, and the 60 other Filipino students
who placed in the top 2 percent of the 300,000 participants of the
AMC, are testaments to the well-rounded and world-class talent of the
Filipino," Valte said.
