INMO 2021 Achiever's Story: Arjun Gupta

Hello! I am Arjun Gupta. I love Math challenges, and I am determined to work hard.

Apart from Math, I love Chess such that I represented India twice in the World Youth Chess Championship category besides winning other Asian and National Chess Competitions.

From early childhood, I am inclined towards Math. My first achievement in Math was getting third position (International level) in SOF IMO- Level II in class VI. Post that, I am consistently among the toppers of SOF IMO, Tournament of Town, SEAMO, and other local Math Competitions.

Earlier, I had a lot of doubts and was unable to get the logic behind many math Problems.

Then, I joined Cheenta in May 2020.

Here, I would like to point out how Cheenta helped me throughout my journey:

  • The Math Olympiad Program at Cheenta provided amazing thrill and challenges at every level.
  • Cheenta's Super Star Program provided enough challenges that I stopped my professional chess and focussed single-mindedly on Mathematics.
  • The Expert Faculties at Cheenta clarified my doubts with the right logic and direction.
  • It also provided me the platform to interact with like-minded students.
  • Cheenta encourages students (as individuals and team) for the International Math Competitions which are very challenging. So, I appeared for International Math Competitions like OMO, MAA AMC 10 & 12, and MAA AIME.
  • With the blessings and guidance of my Cheenta Teachers,
    • I qualified for the INMO (Indian National Mathematics Olympiad) 2021 exam.
    • I scored 12 Marks in AIME and achieve the benchmark for US INMO Qualification.

Overall, it boosted my interest in Mathematics challenges. And the most important thing, I learned from Cheenta is to spend time with patience and be persistent to solve math problems.

I am confident that I will be able to apply math’s learning to my Chess games when I restart my professional chess again.
