SIMO training

We did some combi questions today led by our new IMO gold medalist trainer from Bulgaria. His name is Vladimir Barzov, and he has won 3 gold medals in the IMO 2000 to 2002. He has an accent and his handwriting is sometimes hard to read. But at least he taught us, unlike some other trainers who just left us alone to do the pr0blems and then asked one of us to present it.

I heard that this year there will be two rounds of selection tests to select the IMO team, one in April and one in May. In previous years, there was only one selection test in May.
