The **Mediterranean Mathematics Competition (MMC)** is an international mathematics contest for high school students from countries in the Mediterranean region and other member countries of the Mathematical Society of South-Eastern Europe (MASSEE). It is typically organized annually, with participating countries administering a common written exam on the same or closely coordinated dates. The competition is aimed at talented secondary-school students (generally high-school level) who are interested in problem-solving and mathematical reasoning. Problems are proof-based and cover areas such as algebra, geometry, number theory, and combinatorics, at a level similar to national Olympiad problems but somewhat more accessible than the IMO. Participation is coordinated through national mathematical societies or Olympiad committees, providing students with international exposure, preparation for more advanced Olympiads, and recognition for strong performance. Students normally register **through their country’s national mathematical society, education ministry, or Olympiad committee**, rather than individually. The MMC helps students deepen their mathematical abilities, gain experience with international-style contest problems, and build connections across countries in the Mediterranean and South-Eastern Europe.
