Obradovic said that this result shows that thanks to hard work and talent, our students are on the same footing with their peers from around the world, and often even better than them, and that the Belgrade Mathematical Grammar School is rightfully called a school of special national importance.
The Minister congratulated students Dusan Sobot (silver medal), Ivan Tanasijevic (silver medal), Igor Spasojevic (bronze medal), Rade Spegar (commendation), Lazar Radicevic (commendation), teachers Djordje Krtinic and Dusan Djukic, the entire teaching staff, and especially student Teodor fon Burg (gold medal) who has become the world’s best young mathematician with a total of four gold medals, as well as silver and bronze ones, which he won at the Olympiad.
