    Results

    In the evening of October 19, at the conclusion of all the rounds the results being available, the Jury Board members have a meeting to look at the overall performance of all the students without knowing their names or nationalities (the so called "blind minutes"). As the usual procedure at this meeting, they decided on the cut off level for the I Diploma, II Diploma, III Diploma (corresponding to the Gold, Silver and Bronze Medals) and Diploma of Participation. Here is this decision. But, as per convention, the names should not be announced till the Closing Ceremony.

    The Closing Ceremomy took place on October 20. Fourteen students won the first prizes in the Olympiad, including Park Woo Rhim, Korea (juniors) and Vadim Lebedev, Russia (seniors) reached the best results.
