Vietnamese students will have given the chance to test their intelligence at the International Online Mathematics (BRICSMATH) competition, which is scheduled to get underway from November 16 to November 22.

The event is anticipated to attract the participation of over 3 million students between grades one to 12 from seven countries globally, including the five nations that make up BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa), along with Indonesia and Vietnam.

Competitors will also be able to take part in a trial contest which will provide them with an opportunity to practice ahead of the main round.

During the main round students will be given a total of 60 minutes in order to complete all the tasks through Dragonlearn, an online platform used in the event.

The competition is held to develop creative thinking and motivate students to study mathematics. It will also help to boost ties between the various BRICS countries, along with Vietnam and Indonesia, in the fields of education, culture, and innovation.
