Credentials of Instructors
Nikola Pulev has achieved an Honorable Mention award at the 2016 Physics Olympiad not a Silver Medal. Can you clarify the embellishment.
Hi Peter,
thanks for reaching out and for raising this valuable concern.
To clarify, Nikola holds a silver medal from the IZhO, an international competition in Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science, where he competed among 54 teams from 17 countries to earn his accolade.
I hope this clarifies the question and feel free to reach out at anytime should you have any further asks.
Best,

That is is the Zhautykov Olympiad, a less known competition for teams held in Kazakhstan, and not the commonly recognized International Physics Olympiad for individuals held since 1967, which is thus implied. Still an honorable mention at the latter is nothing to sneer at.
