The 59th International Mendeleev Chemistry Olympiad was held from May 5 to 13 this year in Belo Horizonte (Brazil).
40 countries took part in the Olympiad, which was a historical maximum. More details here.
The competition lasted seven days and consisted of three rounds: two theoretical and one practical. This year, 192 schoolchildren took part in it, among whom 19 gold, 38 silver and 58 bronze awards were played out. Traditionally, 10% of the participants who showed the best results receive gold medals, the next 20% – silver and 30% – bronze.
The Russian team included the winners of the final stage of the All-Russian School Olympiad (VsOSh), who were selected for the international Olympiad based on absolute points. There were 10 people in the team, and all of them received gold medals.
A graduate of the NSU SESC, now the student of the school of the Center of Pedagogical Excellence (Moscow) Viktor Demidov became a gold medalist of the International Mendeleev Chemistry Olympiad. Viktor also participated in this Olympiad last year and won a silver medal. This year he improved his result. And here I would like to note that Viktor Demidov took part in the International Olympiad “Tuymaada” in Mathematics in 2023, where he won a 3rd degree diploma in the junior league.
At the NSU SESC, a prize place in the Mendeleev Olympiad is considered a logical result of the work of a talented student and teachers. Viktor’s mentor was Nazim Mustafin, a silver medalist of the Mendeleev Olympiad in 2022, and earlier, in 2020, Stepan Epifantsev, a student of the NSU SESC, won the gold of the Olympiad. By the way, Stepan is also a participant in the International School Olympiad “Tuymaada”. In 2019, he became the absolute winner in chemistry in the junior league!
According to the teachers, “Tuymaada” for physics and mathematics schoolchildren is a kind of training before the upcoming Olympiad season, and for graduates – an opportunity to put an end to their school Olympiads.
As Viktor notes, participation in the Olympiads brings only benefits.
Congratulations to Viktor on his successful participation in the International Mendeleev Olympiad, we wish him good health and may you conquer new heights!.
