The second phase of the OBMEP represents a significant challenge for students,
especially due to the essay-like nature of its questions. In this context, this Final
Course Work was designed with the objective of identifying and analyzing the
mathematical skills and knowledge present in the questions of the second phase of
the Brazilian Mathematics Olympiad for Public Schools (OBMEP), held annually by
the federal government since 2005. The research assumes a qualitative descriptive
nature and had as its object of study the questions of the second phase of the
OBMEP held in 2023 for levels 1 and 2 applied to students in the second segment of
elementary school. These were analyzed, observing in particular the mathematical
skills and knowledge necessary for their correct development, in addition to the
possible difficulties encountered by the student during the resolution. Throughout the
chapters, information about the Olympiad, the theoretical basis adopted, the
methodological procedures employed, the interpretations made and the results
obtained are presented.
