A science Olympiad tests skills of a student outside of their regular school education. It is a way to assess their abilities and how well they can apply the knowledge to a set of more trickier problems. Certainly, a level higher than the annual school exams, Olympiads have a different exam pattern and contain more complex questions.

National Science Olympiad is an annual school level competitive exam conducted by the Science Olympiad Foundation. The aim of the exam is to screen students of classes 1st to 12th through an advanced set of questions based on their respective class syllabus. If you appear for National Science Olympiad, the following tips will help you do better.

Refer Enriched Study Material for the Best Guidance

It is important to cover NCERT books if you are studying in a CBSE affiliated school and be thorough with your class syllabus. For ICSE and other state boards, cover the books in your school syllabus. It is imperative for every student to have strong foundation in the subjects like Science and Mathematics. It is advisable to get expert guidance. At Aakash, we offer the best study material for talent hunts like Olympiad. They are prepared by the experts with several years of experience and are based on present trends.

Organize Your Time Well

Studying for the National Science Olympiad alongside the regular studies can come off as a burden. It is advisable to organize your day and plan smartly in advance. If you remember the school books by heart it will be easy for you to study tougher questions for the Olympiad later.

  • Color code important information for future references
  • Divide the subject into main topics that are similar or have a follow-up
  • Prepare brief notes for a revision later
  • Memorize important theorems
  • Identify and utilize your strengths
  • Stay calm and don’t lose patience

Get Acquainted with the Latest Exam Pattern

The exam comprises of multiple-choice questions with one correct answer. National Science Olympiad is conducted on two levels; First Level is organized in the respective schools of the participants from classes 1st to 12th, while the Second Level is conducted for classes 3rd to 12th.

The candidates must meet the following requirements for second level exam.

  • Class-wise top 5% of candidates who appeared for the First Level Exam
  • Zone-wise top 25 ranks, per class

Section-wise Marking Scheme

Total 50 60

Practice Sample Papers

It is always advisable to solve sample papers since they can give you a fair idea about the exam pattern, the types of questions, and time limit. Acquainting yourself with the above factors will improve your rank. Sample papers also frame a student’s mind, and they are more confident on the date of the exam. Don’t cheat on the clock, and be strict with the time-limit.

Challenge Yourself & Stay Motivated

You should challenge yourself and set some goals. If you are still relatively young, this practice will help you immensely. Motivate yourself to be healthy physically and mentally.

  • Think ‘Out of the Box’, solve a puzzle every day
  • Read newspapers
  • Add 5 words to your vocabulary everyday
  • Do something creative; draw, paint, or learn a new hobby
  • Play a sport every day
