So if the Chinese TST is really harder than IMO, then a lot of students who failed to get into the Chinese team may recieve gold in IMO if they all participate. Poor Wpolly. Sad

Cezar, you amaze me! First of all, difficulty of IMO team selection tests is not relevant for the results of the country simply because anyone can give extremely difficult problems in their tests and yet no contestant solves the problems given. Secondly, have you ever seen the TST's from China, Russia, Vietnam, USA? I bet they are a little bit more difficult than ours... Wink


USA wasn't too difficult this year. But some years it can have some very very tough problems (of course, the same goes for the other countries mentioned)

I don't know but I'm rooting for Bulgaria; somehow I don't think they will have messed up on the first day's problems since they seemed particularly easy.
