' = Not sure yet

Note that Kevin did bad on the School round, so he did not make his school team in 2018. He made his own team with friends, instead of kids that are good at math, for ABMC in 2018.$^3$

"My ultimate goal is to get accepted into Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and from there, study mathematics very deep", said Kevin. He is already in his second year of PRIMES STEP, a research program held at MIT once a week for middle schoolers.

  • $^1$ Kevin tied for Fourth Place, but Tiebreaker brought him down.
  • $^2$ Kevin tied for First Place, but Tiebreaker brought him down.
  • $^3$ This is both team, and sweepstakes(Overall).
  • $^4$ This is Sweepstakes(Overall).
  • $^5$ Kevin's math friends registered before him, leaving him out.
