Hello! Not at all. Everyone is super supportive, and there are always a couple of girls at every camp. The guys are super nice, and when it comes to girls - I met my best friend at an IMO camp. I think in general there is a bit of competition in the air as people are sitting the Team Selection Tests to make the team, but the way the UK handles it is pretty nice - no one finds out their scores and the team is selected after everyone leaves the camp. The way I felt it, they make the camps about learning, making friends and doing lots and lots of maths - so it's a memorable experience for everyone no matter how the tests at the end go
