Frequently Asked Questions — Olympiads & Scholarships

Official answers to parent and student queries regarding registration, eligibility, Level 2 qualifications, and scholarships.

Students can register either through their respective participating schools or directly through individual student registration with their School Code or Roll Number.

The Achievers Section contains 5 Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) questions at the end of the question paper. Each question carries 2 or 3 marks (up to 3x weightage) and serves as the primary tie-breaker for deciding International Ranks and Gold Medals.

Level 2 is conducted for students from Class 3 to 12. Top 5% candidates class-wise who appear for Level 1, top 25 zone-wise rank holders in each class, and class toppers from schools with at least 10 participating students scoring above 50% qualify for Level 2.

Students qualifying for NMMS receive a total scholarship grant of ₹48,000 (₹12,000 annually or ₹1,000 per month) from Class 9 to Class 12, directly credited to their bank accounts via National Scholarship Portal (NSP).

Students studying in Class 8 in Government, Local Body, or Government-aided schools with an annual parental income of not more than ₹3,50,000 and having scored at least 55% marks (50% for SC/ST) in Class 7 are eligible.

No, there is zero negative marking in Olympiads (IMO, NSO, IEO, NCO) as well as in the NMMS examination. Candidates are strongly encouraged to attempt all questions.

The Indian Olympiad Qualifier in Mathematics (IOQM) is organized jointly by the Mathematics Teachers' Association of India (MTA) and Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education (HBCSE). It is the first stage for selecting India's team for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO).

Solving official previous year question papers familiarises students with tricky question patterns, time distribution, Achievers Section HOTS problem-solving, and eliminates exam phobia before the actual competition.
