The YTF Mathematics Olympiad 2026 is a premier academic event designed to identify and celebrate the next generation of mathematical thinkers and problem solvers. Following the massive success of last year’s competition—which saw over 1,000 students showcase their quantitative prowess—this year’s Olympiad returns as one of the most highly challenging and prestigious platforms for young mathematicians to test their logic, precision, and abstract reasoning skills.
The competition follows a rigorous curriculum modeled after international Olympiad standards, ensuring a world-class level of assessment. Participants will tackle advanced problems in geometry, number theory, combinatorics, and algebra that go far beyond standard classroom formulas, offering a unique opportunity to build academic credibility for future university applications in STEM fields.
In recognition of their dedication to intellectual excellence, certificates of participation are provided to every student who joins the competition, honoring their commitment to mastering the language of the universe.

Competition Structure & Phases:
Competition Structure & Phases:
This year, the competition features three phases, allowing you to progress and showcase your skills at increasingly advanced levels:
Phase 1 : The opening round. Top performers here will qualify for Phase 2.
Phase 2 : A more challenging round for qualified students.
Phase 3: The national final. The highest achievers in this phase will be selected to form a delegation to represent the YTF at an International Biology Olympiad, competing against students from around the world.
Exclusive Training & Support for Qualifiers:
Advancing to Phase 2 and Phase 3 is more than just a competition milestone. Qualifying students will be welcomed into our YTF Mathematics Excellence Program, gaining access to:
Expert-Led Masterclasses: Live, interactive online sessions conducted by university lecturers and former Olympiad medalists, diving deep into advanced topics and experimental techniques. Mentorship: Personalized guidance from mentors who will help you navigate the syllabus, refine your problem-solving skills, and build confidence for higher-level competition.
Resource Library: Exclusive access to past papers, advanced problem sets, and study guides designed to bridge the gap between textbook knowledge and Olympiad-level application.
Peer Networking: Connect with a community of like-minded, high-achieving students who share your passion for biology.

Assessment Details
Question Distribution:
Question Distribution:
Geometry (25%): Focuses on Euclidean geometry, properties of circles, triangles, and polygons, as well as geometric transformations and locus problems.
Algebra (25%): Covers complex polynomials, functional equations, inequalities (including Cauchy-Schwarz and AM-GM), and sequences and series.
Number Theory (25%): Includes divisibility, modular arithmetic, Diophantine equations, prime factorization, and properties of arithmetic functions.
Combinatorics (25%): Analyzes counting techniques, pigeonhole principle, graph theory, combinatorial geometry, and recurrence relations
The competition is structured to mirror the rigors of the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), challenging students to provide complete, logical proofs rather than just numerical answers.
Complexity: Problems are categorized from Level 1 to Level 3, ranging from challenging to extremely difficult.
Evaluation: Each solution is graded based on the elegance, clarity, and mathematical soundness of the proof provided.
Time Allotment: Designed to test deep concentration and persistence over an extended testing window.
