So many valuable information tidbits that we'd never have known if Tapen hadn't put them together. As always, easy and engaging to read.

Thanks.

There were a million other things I did not write about there.

For example, what Dana Ma said in the introduction of the IMO.

https://www.imo-official.org/participant_r.aspx?id=18705

She was an Chinese Australian contestant in 2009.

She went straight out of high school to Cambridge to

do a MMath integrated all expenses paid program.

The IMO opened doors for her.

It reminded me of my own memory of ISI - an all expense

paid program. I had never heard of the IMO back then.

Prithwijit De, the leader of the 2023 Indian contingent

of the IMO team also happen to be from ISI.
