With a total score of 188, the Vietnamese delegation ranked 9th out of 113 countries and territories participating in this year's exam, behind the delegations: China (1), the US (2), South Korea (3), Poland and Japan (4), Israel (6), India (7), Singapore (8).

Compared with the results in 2024 (2 silver medals, 3 bronze medals and 1 certificate of merit), the achievements of the Vietnamese delegation in 2025 have clearly surpassed.

The 66th International Mathematical Olympiad was held from July 10-20, 2025 in Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia, with the participation of more than 639 contestants from 113 delegations representing countries and territories. The total number of medals of this year's competition includes: 72 gold medals, 104 silver medals and 145 bronze medals.

6/6 students of the Vietnamese team participating in IMO 2025 won prizes.

The IMO 2025 exam consists of 6 problems: 2 arithmetic problems, 2 combinatorial problems, 1 geometry problem and 1 algebra problem (with combinatorial statements and combinatorial thinking requirements). This shows the tendency of this year's exam to focus on combinatorial content.

Notably, the only geometry problem in the exam, problem number 2, was proposed by Vietnam and the author was Mr. Tran Quang Hung, a teacher at the High School for Natural Sciences, University of Natural Sciences, Vietnam National University, Hanoi.

This is the fourth time Vietnam has had a problem selected for the official IMO exam, after 1977 (author: Phan Duc Chinh), 1982 (author: Van Nhu Cuong) and 1987 (author: Nguyen Minh Duc).

The closing ceremony and awards ceremony of the competition will take place at 16:00 on July 19, 2025 (local time) in Australia.
