In mathematics, Chung Minh Tien of Archimedes Secondary School, Nguyen Nhat Minh of Newton Secondary School, and Nguyen Quang Vinh of Pascal Secondary School won gold medals. The remaining members of the mathematics team secured seven silver and two bronze medals.

In science, two students – Truong Duc Minh Khoi of Delta Global School and Vu Duc Huy of Newton Secondary School – grabbed gold medals, while the rest of the team received eight silver and two bronze medals.

This year's IMSO was held at Al-Bukhary International University in Kedah, attracting 400 students from 23 teams. The mathematics contest covered five topics, including arithmetic, geometry, data and measurement, probability and statistics, and recreational mathematics.

The science competition spanned 16 subjects, from human health to energy sources and the Solar System. English was the official language of the contest.

IMSO is an annual competition for students aged 13 and under, designed to promote intellectual ability and interest in STEM fields.

The contest was initiated by the Indonesian Ministry of National Education in 2003 under the name AMSO – the ASEAN Mathematics and Science Olympiad – and Vietnam has participated since 2014.

Last year, the 21st IMSO took place in Wenzhou, China, attracting nearly 300 students from 18 countries. The Vietnamese team placed second after Singapore, with all students winning awards, including nine gold medals. The 2026 IMSO is scheduled to be held in Indonesia.
