Middle European Mathematical Olympiad 2022

The final report summarizes not just the achievements of the organizers but, in particular, the challenges encountered along the way. We hope that it will provide future organizers with practice experiences from behind the stage, delivering insight into the scale and diversity of the tasks.

Thank you all for the amazing MEMO!

The results of the MEMO exam were announced at the closing ceremony.

The second excursion and the last day of MEMO: a boat ride over Lake Thun and a hike up Niederhorn.

The first of the two excursions: a trip to a forest clearing near a creek in Emmental.

The second of the two days during which the MEMO exam takes place. Contrary to the first day and most math competitions around the world, the problems of this day are to be solved in teams.

The first of the two days during which the MEMO exam takes place, when contestants solve problems individually.

The opening ceremony of the MEMO 2022, where all teams introduced themselves on stage.

On the first day of the MEMO, the teams arrived one by one. The participants were welcomed at the hostel and spent the free afternoon on the activities of their choice.

Vom 25. bis 31. August ist die 16. MEMO in der Schweiz zu Gast. Etwa 60 junge Talente aus zehn Ländern werden eine Woche lang Alpen mit Algebra kombinieren und sich während kniffliger Prüfungen mit Schoggi stärken. Wir sind der Frage auf den Grund gegangen, was die MEMO einzigartig macht.

Are you still free at the end of August? Are you looking to meet new people and make new friends? Would you like to support a project for motivated high-school students that brings together like-minded people? Then you have come to the right place.

This August, high school students from ten different countries will come together in Bern to solve mathematical problems, make new friends, and have a good time.
