The international mental arithmetic competition held in Saint Petersburg was not only a serious challenge but also a major event for the IQ Center team.

This time, our team was large—not only did students from different parts of Armenia (Ijevan, Gyumri, and Yerevan) join us, but also participants from Georgia. Our competitors came from different countries worldwide. The competition was tough and demanding, but our students were well-prepared and confidently took on the challenge.

The IQ Center team performed brilliantly, demonstrating not only fast and accurate calculation skills but also determination and resilience.

Our students not only performed well but also gained invaluable experience by interacting with children from different cultures and mindsets.

Beyond the competition, we also found time to explore the city, visit historical landmarks, and immerse ourselves in its atmosphere.

These victories are just the beginning. We returned with new experiences, new goals, and are already prepared for the next challenges!
