You start thinking beyond limitations and try to develop your own approaches and find new paths. Even if you do not solve a problem, the process of asking the right questions can take you much further.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>International Olympiads<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I began participating in Olympiads in 7th grade, when I first joined an olympiad club. Over time, I deepened my knowledge there and started achieving results, which brought joy both to me and to my country. I would like the olympiad movement in Armenia to grow further and for more children to get involved.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Olympiads not only provide knowledge but also create a competitive environment that pushes you to become stronger and better prepared. At the same time, they offer a friendly atmosphere\u2014time spent together, team activities, and interactions make those days truly memorable.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Future Plans<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My goal is to win a gold medal and increase the number of international olympiad participation. I also hope the olympiad movement becomes more widely recognized both in schools and across Armenia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From an academic perspective, I am also interested in economics, and I would like to combine it with mathematics. I am likely to continue my studies in that direction, including abroad. However, my most important goal is to eventually return and use my knowledge to contribute to my country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]The latest hero in the \u201cSuccess Stories of PhysMatsh School Students\u201d series is 17-year-old Arman Asatryan, a<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":4231,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"two_page_speed":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4232","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4232","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4232"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4232\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4231"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4232"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4232"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/physmathfriends.am\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4232"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
