Therefore, this training aimed to prepare the students for the rigorous demands of the IMOST, which serves as a gateway to the prestigious International Mathematical Olympiad. The lecturers focused on advanced problem-solving techniques, critical thinking, and mathematical strategies necessary for success in the competition. This initiative highlights the commitment of both the PSM and teachers from Maahad Tahfiz Negeri Pahang to fostering mathematical excellence and nurturing young talent on the global stage.
