Twenty-four points, and a medal
Scores at the olympiad run to a maximum of 42. Alarcon's total of 24 was enough for a gold medal and joint eighteenth place, which is the part of the result that needs stating together: medals are awarded in bands set after the paper has been marked, so the score at which gold begins moves from year to year with the difficulty of the questions.
The place is shared, as places at the top of an olympiad table usually are. Totals cluster, and every contestant on the same number occupies the same line in the ranking. Joint eighteenth of 247 puts the result inside the top eight per cent of everyone who sat the competition.
Who finished above her
The 2026 leaderboard in Bordeaux ran: Huaijin Lou of China with a perfect 42; Ziyu Tang of China on 36; Minqi Xu and Yuke Zhuo of China and Shreya Mundhada of India on 35; Danica Odelia of Indonesia on 32; Mălina-Carla Pavel of Romania on 30; Amber Li of Australia on 28; Haruka Kimura of Japan on 27; and a six-way tie on 26.
The list makes the character of the competition plain. Although it is called the European Girls' Mathematical Olympiad, the field extends to teams from Asia, the Americas and Australasia, all ranked in a single order, and Peru's entry is judged on exactly the same scoreboard as the strongest European programmes.
Where the result is published
The source for every figure on this page is the scoreboard published by the organisers of the competition. It lists contestants by name and country with a total, a rank and a medal, and the marks behind it are agreed in coordination between the jury and the team leaders before publication.
Nothing else about Alarcon appears in the sources gathered for this record. The research file notes an accented spelling of the surname, Alarcón, which is how it may appear in Spanish-language listings; no Peruvian report or interview is among the sources used here.
What is documented — and what is not
Firm: 24 points of 42, joint eighteenth place, a gold medal, Peru as the country, and the 2026 olympiad in Bordeaux as the competition, in a field of 247.
Open: no age, birth year, school, city or photograph is published in these sources. Nothing states how the Peruvian team was selected, whether Alarcon had competed at an earlier olympiad, or what she has done since. Those are gaps in the public record rather than details omitted for brevity.

IQ-Test starten →Why a travelling team matters
Teams at the olympiad number at most four, and every one of them arrives through a national selection process of several rounds. For a country outside the host continent, competing also means the expense and logistics of sending a delegation across the world for two mornings of examinations.
That is the context in which a gold medal from Peru should be read. The scoreboard does not distinguish between visiting and European teams, and the result stands in the same ranking as everyone else's: twenty-four points, joint eighteenth, gold, published by the competition and permanent.
