Changing the Method and Mind
The MaRRS International Math Bee is conceived as a motivated learning program in Mathematics intended to create an interest in Maths. It has a progressive learning mechanism with new chapters in the subject added at every level. Every cycle of MIMB will drive the participant through the syllabus of the current academic year to the starter lessons of the next academic year.
