UKMT Intermediate Maths Challenge 2025 Certificate Boundaries
The Intermediate Maths Challenge certificate boundaries have just been released – I’ve filmed a YouTube video here talking about them and comparing them to last year’s grade boundaries.
How do I find out my score?
Many students remember what they put for the answers and then check the official solutions (find then all here). If you don’t remember you might have to wait for your school to tell you.
Qualified for the Kangaroo or Olympiad rounds?
Congratulations – that’s an impressive result! If you want to prepare Mathsaurus has lots of resources, from pages with links to past papers, free online courses and even live taught-options where you can work directly with Kevin to prepare. See the pages here for more info:
Missed out on the Kangaroo and Olympiad rounds?
The boundaries for the Kangaroo and Olympiad are just for automatic free qualification for the follow-on rounds. If you missed out and still want to take it, you can ask your school if they would be willing to make a discretionary entry for you. There is usually a fee associated with this – see more info on the page here.
When will I receive my certificate?
I don’t know! The results are out but it’s up to your school to decide when you’ll get your certificate, so you may still have to wait for them to do some admin. Some schools like to wait for a special occasion like end of term assemblies to give them out so check with your maths teacher!
What if I didn’t get a Bronze?
Don’t worry, the main thing is to enjoy the problems and learn something along the way, and you will still receive a Certificate of Participation.
How can I do better next year?
Mathsaurus has loads of courses and resources to help you prepare for the IMC, including significant free options – take a look at the page here.
