About the Olympiad

The International Olympiad of Mathematics (iOM) is widely considered the premier educational event for math enthusiasts from all around the world. It is a highly anticipated event that ignites the imagination of students and provides them with an opportunity to showcase their true potential. The competition is held annually at both national and international levels, drawing from the syllabi provided by various boards such as CBSE/ICSE/ICBSE and other State Boards.

One of the distinctive features of iOM is its emphasis on not just theoretical but also practical knowledge of mathematics. Applied Mathematics forms an integral part of the exam paper, which requires students to apply their knowledge to real-world problems. This enables them to develop critical thinking skills and apply their knowledge in a practical setting.

Furthermore, iOM provides students with a comprehensive report based on their performance in the Olympiad examination. This report offers an in-depth analysis of their strengths and shortcomings, allowing them to identify areas that require improvement. This feedback also motivates students to strive for excellence and push themselves to reach their full potential in the field of mathematics.

In conclusion, the International Olympiad of Mathematics is an essential event that not only tests the mathematical knowledge and competency of students but also provides them with an opportunity to develop critical thinking skills and apply their knowledge to real-world problems. The comprehensive report generated from the Olympiad examination provides students with valuable feedback that can help them identify areas for improvement and strive for excellence.

Raw Score is derived from the total of multiplying each correct answer with its base marks. i.e. Raw Score = SUM (correct answer x subsequent base Marks).

Total Marks

Total Marks = Raw Score + SUM (Weightage of Correct Answers).

Weightage: Each Question carries an additional weightage starting from .0001, .0002 and so on. E.g. Question No. 1 will have the weightage of .0001 and Question No. 2 will have the weightage of .0002 and so on. The weightage will be used to break the tie while calculating Class/Zonal/Olympiads ranks.
