Remember that you will need a phone number if you wish to create a new Telegram account for yourself on your tablet.

(If you already have a Telegram account on your mobile phone, and you wish to use Telegram on your tablet without having to create a new Telegram account for yourself, you can just sign in to Telegram on your tablet directly. Then, you will be able to start using Telegram on your tablet. You will also be able to join our Telegram channel on your tablet.

At the same time, you must also have an existing or a newly created Telegram account on your mobile phone. (The steps to install the Telegram app and create a Telegram account on the mobile phone can be found above.)

After that, you can sign in to your Telegram account on your computer (or laptop) at the Telegram Web by using QR code or phone number. Alternatively, you can install the Telegram Desktop app on your computer (or laptop) and sign in to your Telegram account.

Then, you can join our official Telegram channel on your computer (or laptop) by using the Telegram search bar, the QR code of our channel, or the link to our channel.

Preview our Channel on a Web Browser without having a Telegram Account

To join our Telegram channel officially, you need to have a Telegram account. In case you do not have a Telegram account and you do not wish to create a Telegram account for yourself, you don't have to worry about it. This is because all the important information about our mathematics championships will still be updated on our official website.

Besides, you can actually access the contents of our Telegram channel without having a Telegram account. Just open your web browser and visit t.me/gohmaths. After that, click "Preview channel", but not the "View in Telegram" button, as you do not have the Telegram app installed on your device.

This should work on laptops, tablets and mobile phones, as long as the device does not have the Telegram app installed and you are not signed in to a Telegram account on that device.

If you are a teacher teaching at a primary school, secondary school or pre-university college in Malaysia, you can promote our official Telegram channel by sharing this announcement with other school mathematics teachers in Malaysia who are interested in mathematical events. If you are a student studying at a primary school, secondary school or pre-university college in Malaysia, you can inform your friends (other students in Malaysia) who love mathematics about the Telegram channel of our mathematics competition.

Dear teachers, parents and students, 

First and foremost, we would like to thank you for taking part in ‘The 6th Benedict Goh Malaysia Schools Mathematics Championship 2023’. We would like to let you know that the awards and certificates pack for each participating school (including tuition centre and individual participant) of this competition has been shipped out from our side by phase in December 2023 and January 2024.

The final batch of the awards and certificates packages was shipped out from our side at the end of January 2024. We understand that this is later than the original planned date and we apologise for any inconvenience caused by the delay in sending out the awards and certificates. We trust that the awards and certificates package for your school has reached your side before the start of the school holidays in early February 2024. If your school has not received the awards pack, please contact us immediately.

Upon receiving your awards and certificates pack, make sure that you receive all the medals (if applicable) and certificates in correct quantity and also in good condition. Printed certificates were prepared for all participants while medals were prepared only for students obtaining final marks of 70 and above. Printed certificates of appreciation were prepared for all teacher-in-charges too.

Additionally, for your information, starting from BMC 2023, a certificate of excellence and a medal of outstanding performance will be awarded to any participating school (including tuition centre) that meets both criteria below in a single championship.

• At least 80 students registered for the championship under the participating school;
• At least 30 students (who registered under the participating school) obtain final marks of 70 and above.

In case you find any incorrect personal particulars on your certificates, or in case your certificates/medals are not in good condition, please contact us immediately. If you are a teacher-in-charge, you can contact us via WhatsApp or email. If you are a student, you can contact us through the teacher-in-charges at your school. We will provide further assistance and instructions upon receiving your message or email.

If you have any suggestions for improving our future championships, and you would like to share them with us, you can write an email and send it to gohmaths@yahoo.com.

We will also be updating the lists of medal winners of this championship by school year category on this website in the next few days. Visit our website again in early March 2024 to learn about the winners of this championship from different schools and different regions of Malaysia.

Once again, we thank you for your participation and involvement in this championship, which truly contributed to the success of this event. We hope to see you again in BMC 2024. Thank you.
