IMO Eligibility Criteria 2022

IMO Level 1 Eligibility

Students from class 1 -12 can apply for the Level 1 exam irrespective of their academic marks. The eligibility criterion is beneficial in increasing the participation of a large number of students. Class 1 to 12 school students pursuing education within the country or abroad can be a part of the International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO) Level 1 exam.

IMO Level 2 Eligibility

Only the students who performed well in the Level 1 exam get short-listed for the Level 2 exam. The following students will be eligible:

• From each class, the top 5% of students will qualify for the Level 2 exam
• Full 25 zone wise and category wise rank holders will also be eligible
• Class toppers from each school participating should enrol at least ten students from a class in the exam and score 50% qualifying marks.
• In case of section-wise registration, the top rank holder will be eligible for Level 2

However, note that the Class 1 and 2 students don’t need to appear for the Level 2 exam. They judge the pupil’s performance based on the Level 1 exam only.
