According to the list announced by Alibaba Group, in 2024, there will be more than 800 contestants in the world (average age is 22), entering the final round of the Global Mathematics Competition, taking place on June 22. These are contestants from the world's top universities such as: Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge University (UK), Tsinghua University and Peking University (China)...

Among them, the most prominent is Khuong Binh, a 17-year-old female student studying at a village school. Currently, Khuong Binh is a first-year student in the Fashion Design department of Lien Thuy Vocational College (Jiangsu, China).

In the preliminary round, the female student scored 93 points and ranked 12th. This result helped Khuong Binh advance straight to the finals. In this year's competition, the female student is considered one of the mysterious factors. In addition, Khuong Binh is also the first intermediate student in the history of the competition to achieve this result.

Previously, Khuong Binh scored 621 points in her high school entrance exam, enough to attend a local high school. However, due to her passion for fashion design, she decided to study at a village school.

Jiang Ping said that the intermediate level mainly studied Chinese (Literature), Math and specialized subjects. In her free time, the female student focused on studying Math. After a short time, the textbooks were not enough to meet Jiang Ping's needs. At this time, the female student's Math scores at school also attracted the attention of Ms. Wang Nhuan Thu.

With the encouragement of Ms. Thu, Khuong Binh began to study advanced mathematics on her own. During this process, the female student encountered many difficulties when studying Partial Differential Equations. In order to participate in the Global Mathematics Competition, Khuong Binh studied on her own for 2 years. The female student confided that she still thought about not being able to solve a problem even when lying in bed.

When asked about her hobbies, the female student revealed that she is passionate about exploring Mathematics. "Because Mathematics brings me joy." Although she has a talent for Mathematics, Khuong Binh does not admit it, saying that it is just her own acumen. "Math for me is not just a subject, it is also a passion, a pleasure and a challenge."

Sharing about balancing two parallel passions, Khuong Binh said that when he has free time, he will study Math. Fashion design and Math are not contradictory, but complement each other effectively. "Math is present in every aspect of life, fashion is no exception. When designing clothes, I need to use drawing skills, cutting symmetry. All are related to Math".

Talking about the opportunity to enter the contest, the female student said that she accidentally saw it on social media and wanted to try it. "I usually study Math seriously. I hope that when I participate in the contest, my ability will be recognized by others."

Khuong Binh's future plan is to pass the university entrance exam. "No matter what the future holds, I will still keep my passion for Math. If Fashion Design is my goal A, exploring Math will be my goal B." The female student affirmed that she will not give up either of these two fields, because they are both passions.

The Global Mathematics Competition is organized by Alibaba Group and DAMO Academy. This is the 6th consecutive year the competition has been held. The final round will take place on June 22. Contestants will have to compete for 8 hours straight. The overall winner will receive a prize worth more than 4 million yuan (14 billion VND).
