On 11th May, BIS HCMC sent a team of four YR8 students to China to the FOBISIA Secondary Mathematics Competition held at the British School of Beijing.
Joseph Kang, Phan Ha Tran, Andy Kim and Tyler Nguyen worked tirelessly throughout 9 intense rounds of competition over 2 days including a catapult challenge, relays and a maths trail.
The team proved to be hugely popular with their fellow competitors and made plenty of friends during the event. We were very proud to take home one of the few medals awarded after Joseph finished first overall for the individual round – a huge achievement considering he beat 111 of the region’s best mathematicians!
The team were a credit to BIS HCMC and we look forward to following their successes in future competitions. Although, perhaps next time we shouldn't have such an early start...
An early start but we're on our way! Next stop Beijing for The FOBISIA Secondary Mathematics Competition! Good luck guys! pic.twitter.com/nTKgSC0gss

Mr Ben Sillitoe, Assistant Head of Mathematics
We are thrilled that four of our Year 13 students have recently gained offers from ‘Elite’ USA universities.
At BIS HCMC, leadership is more than just a title — it’s about inspiring others, fostering a sense of community, and embracing personal growth. This year’s Head Students, in Year 13, — Atom, JaeYeon, Tim, and Serena — embody these values with authenticity and dedication, each bringing their unique strengths, creativity, and passion to their roles.
We are thrilled to announce that a record three students from the BIS HCMC Class of 2025 have received offers from the University of Oxford, ranked number 3 in the world, and the University of Cambridge, ranked number 5 in the world. A huge congratulations to Quynh An, YeongSeo (Judy) and JaeYeon on their extraordinary achievement that sets a new benchmark for BIS students.
These achievements come as BIS students begin to secure outstanding offers from top universities around the world, including USA, UK, Australia and Asia and these numbers will only continue to rise as more decisions will be made over the coming weeks.
