Olympiad Training in Bangalore by Charaka Learning




The International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) is one of the most eminent examinations at the college level. In a total of hundred competing countries, a bunch of six students are chosen to represent their respective countries in order to win the coveted Gold Medal. In India, the selection of these students is done through Indian National Mathematics Olympiad (INMO) which acts as a passage to IMO. About 30 candidates are shortlisted from all over the country through this test. This is followed by training at the Orientation Cum Selection Camp (OCSC), and six from amongst them are chosen to represent India at the IMO.
Saying that INMO is a difficult exam would be quite an understatement. It requires an aptitude and thorough knowledge of the subject. At Charaka, we provide the apt Olympiad exam preparation order for the students to make their mark in history.
Selection Process of International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO):
1.       Regional Mathematical Olympiad (RMO):
This test is held at a regional level. The country is divided into various regions and each region conducts their RMO. Students of STD IX, X and XI are eligible for the exam. This paper has a total of 6-8 questions and is a three hour examination worth 100 marks. Though the same set of questions are asked in every region to maintain uniformity, but some regions may opt to hold their own RMOs. Usually the cut offs range between 40-50 marks, but may vary with respect to the difficulty of the paper.

2.       Indian National Mathematics Olympiad (INMO):
Post the RMOs, 30 students from every region are selected for the INMO i.e. the second stage. If students are expected to solve only 6 questions in a period of 4 hours, it suggests that the problems asked must be quite difficult. And to add to that, despite having so much time students are barely able to solve even 2-3 questions. In order to qualify for the next level however, solving 4 questions is enough. The problems involve rigorous mathematics and not the tedious kind that most students are accustomed to. The solution doesn’t strike immediately after you see the problem and hence requires a step by step approach to reach the final answer. The complex-looking solution is built from a number of elementary steps. So, while the problems and their solutions may appear out of hand at the first glance, they are indeed possible to solve through small and basic steps.
While most students preparing for the Olympiads are already pre-occupied with their entrance exam preparations, however, it is a good practice for one who loves Mathematics. At Charaka, we encourage our students to take up part in Olympiad and increase their learning abilities. Olympiad Exam Preparation at our coaching classes in Bangalore acts as a boon for the interested students as we impart learning using a mix blend of tuition, mock tests, study materials and doubt clearing sessions.
