IMO competition questions are international standard competition questions, which are put forward by the expert review committee of the National Organizing Committee and reviewed by the World Olympic Mathematical Competition Association. The content of IMO competition is to examine students' ability to solve practical problems by using the mathematical knowledge they have learned. Based on what you have learned in the textbook, rote memorization and repeated application are not advocated. In the application experience, they examine the application ability of what they have learned, strengthen knowledge memory, cultivate interest, and produce effective accumulation of knowledge, thus forming learning-application experience-interest.

Q: What is the necessity of IMO training?

A: The competition of quality education system focuses on the ability of students to apply mathematical knowledge to solve practical problems, which is different from the current study habits and methods of students. Domestic students generally attach importance to knowledge, ignore ability and have poor hands-on ability. Therefore, players with mathematical knowledge may not have the ability to interpret IMO standard competition questions and solve practical problems with their mathematical knowledge. In practice, some players can't adapt to the interpretation habit of IMO standard competition questions, so they can't answer the competition questions.

Therefore, IMO training is the premise to ensure that the contestants get effective results in IMO competitions, and it is also the premise for the contestants to master problem-solving methods and play their normal learning. For the players who take part in IMO competition under exam-oriented education, IMO training is a necessary process for them to take part in IMO competition, and it is also a necessary process for them to achieve good results.
