What is the Leva Mathematics Camp?
Organized completely free of charge by the Leva Science Society, the Leva Mathematics Camp (LMK) has been held online every summer since 2023. Open to participants of all ages and from all countries, the camp attracts middle school, high school, and university students from all 81 provinces of Turkey and many other countries each year.
The camp's aim is to provide training in various fields, primarily mathematics olympiads and advanced mathematics; to monitor and guide participants' progress through mentors; to dissect every piece of information taught and examine its true meaning; and to teach participants how to apply these approaches to learning in all areas of their lives.
LMK's scope is not limited to mathematics alone. Our instructors also offer 'culture' classes in fields like science, culture, art, and hobbies where they possess knowledge and experience, expanding the learning experience in a friendly and engaging environment.

Information about the Process of the Camp
The stages of Leva Math Camp are listed below. For more detailed information and the meanings of some concepts specific to our camp, please review the announcement text.
Application Process
Talent and Culture Interview
Readiness Test (HBS)
Applications are announced on Leva's social media channels and website. Anyone who is fluent in Turkish can apply.
Applicants whose applications are accepted undergo aptitude and cultural interviews. The aptitude interview is a math test consisting of several questions, each requiring an explanation of the solution.
The purpose of a cultural interview is to get to know the individual, focusing on their perspective on everyday situations and their areas of interest.
These interviews are not for elimination, but for getting to know the applicant. It's important that both interviews are taken seriously.
The Readiness Exam (formerly known as the Leva Mathematics Competition) is the final step before applying to LMK. Held online over two days for 4.5 hours each, the exam features math problems across all difficulty levels. While the starting questions may be tackled easily, the final problems can reach the level of the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO). Based on the exam results, principal and provisional students are determined, and top-ranking students are awarded medals at the graduation ceremony.

Final Exam
General Aptitude Test
Following the HBS, camp groups are formed. Training is provided in 5-day periods called "Gencuk" and each group's program is announced at the beginning of the week, but may change over time. Additionally, class recordings are stored in an archive. Instructors can create assignments for their lessons if they wish.
The Final Exam (BS) is an assessment covering the mathematical olympiad subjects taught at LMK. Because it is based on the TÜBİTAK National Mathematical Olympiad Second Round Exam in both format and question quality, it provides great practice for students preparing for the official exam.
The General Aptitude Test (GYS) is an untimed exam featuring questions from various fields of science and culture. Each question is built around a long narrative and contains multiple sub-questions. Solving these questions requires a significant amount of research and imagination. While the GYS has no fixed deadline, if it is a requirement for graduation, the specified completion rate must be achieved during the graduation process.
Graduation Process
To qualify for graduation from Leva, participants must accumulate the required number of course credits. This necessitates completing course assignments, meeting minimum attendance requirements, or reviewing course recordings and submitting corresponding summaries. Although participants may fulfill these graduation criteria during the camp, the camp's duration may be insufficient. Therefore, an additional grace period is granted following the final session of the camp to allow for the completion of all graduation requirements. Please note that graduation criteria are subject to change over time.
Graduation Ceremony
The closing event of the camp is the graduation ceremony. During this ceremony, graduating students receive their graduation certificates alongside any other certificates of achievement they may have earned. Additionally, HBS medal winners are presented with their medals, and several of Leva's traditional events are held.
Our Instructors
Our mathematics instructors include many individuals who have progressed from the first stage of mathematics olympiads to the national team level. Our culture instructors, on the other hand, have volunteered to teach subjects in which they possess specific expertise. The common characteristic of all instructors is their mastery of the subject matter and how it should be conveyed.
