As the first winner of the mathematics olympiad, Kenji Dedi Zulfady admitted that he had prepared himself well before participating in the competition. Kenji learns a lot from the internet and following coaching from school.
"In my preparation, I study more or less according to the syllabus given by the school and the internet," said Kenji, who was interviewed on Tuesday, June 14, 2022.
Kenji admitted that he was more serious about studying a week before the Olympics. He focuses on studying geometry and combinatorics.
Not only this time, but Kenji also won first place in the same event last year. In addition, since elementary school, he has also often been a champion in mathematics.
"The most often won second and third place. If the first winner is only three times, junior high school twice and elementary school once," said this class VIII-1 student.
When participating in this Olympics, he admitted that everything went smoothly. He also shared some tips when taking part in the math olympiad.
"First, take a look at last year's questions. For example, if you enter the final, please describe the steps in full, because usually, it can be a plus," Kenji explained.
Meanwhile, the coach of the Widiatmika Middle School math olympiad, Ni Putu Yulia Prawesti, said that the Widiatmika Junior High School sent five students to participate in the math olympiad.
"And we are grateful that one student entered the final and won first place. This is a competition for junior high school students in Bali," said Yulia.
Coaching for students is carried out for three weeks. Even though there are holidays, coaching continues online using Google Meet. "Besides that, I also give practice questions that will be discussed at the next meeting," he said.
