International Junior Science Olympiad: All about IJSO you need to know!

Overview of IJSO

The program is to expand the interest of mathematics and science in the student through free and imaginative creativity by solving problems in mathematics and science. It likewise expects to advance international contacts in mathematics and science. Friendship is a major goal between these young minds of different nationalities, collaboration among understudies, and trade of academic and logical involvement in mathematics and science. This program directly concentrates on young minds for better future and innovation in mathematics and science field.

The Mathematics and science Olympiad includes the stages-

Stage I: National Standard Examination in Junior Science (NSEJS)

Stage II:  Indian National Junior Science Olympiad (INJSO)

Stage III: Orientation cum Selection Camp (OCSC) in Junior Science

Stage IV: Pre-departure Training Camp (PDT) for IJSO

Stage V:  Participation in International Junior Science Olympiad (IJSO)

 

Stage I: NSEJS

Overview of NSEJS

NSEJS is conducted by the Indian Association of Physics Teachers (IAPT) and is the main phase of the selection of students in the Junior Science Olympiad Program. Each student trying to experience progressive phases of the program must enlist for NSEJS. This exam is held at different centers in the nation.

 

Eligibility Criteria for NSEJS

A student must get a score equivalent to or higher than a Minimum Admissible Score (MAS). He/she has to be qualified for the Stage II INO test prompting the International Olympiad. A given subject has particular marks and 40% of those marks will be MAS.

 

Syllabus for NSEJS

The syllabus for NSEJS is broadly equivalent to the senior secondary level (Class XI and Class XII) of CBSE Junior Science. However, there is no detailed syllabus for the NSEJS.

Qualifying for IJSO

The objective of the primary stage exam is to have a wide reach and which must be progressively achieved across the country. This is actually a representation of stage II without excessive merit compromise. Henceforth the choice to stage II of Indian National Olympiad Examinations (INOs) depends on the accompanying plan.

  • Major Eligibility Key Points

There is minimum eligibility required of having a score equal to or more than MAS or Minimum Admissible Score. This is required to get entry into the next phase of the International Olympiad. MAS is equivalent to 40% of the maximum score of each subject.

  • Proportion Representation Clause of qualified students:

Around 300 students will be qualified for stage II INO. The selection proportion will be in such that students will be selected in each State or UT based on the number of students appeared in the NSE 2011-12 respectively in each State or Union Territory. Assume this number in 2011-12 in a given State in a given subject is S, and the total number that showed up in 2011-12 in that subject for the nation is T, at that point the number chose to Stage II in that subject from that State would be S/T times 300, adjusted off to the closest higher whole number.

In case of result gets a tie for the last position, all students with similar imprints at this position will meet all requirements to get entry into Stage II assessment. The chosen students should all things considered fulfill the qualification provision spread out above. All the students selected for the next are mention properly under a list on IAPT and HBCSE websites.

  • Minimum Representation Clause (MPC)

This clause states that the Proportion Representation Clause is follower but the students who have qualified for the INO must also satisfy the eligibility clause.

  • Merit Clause

After going through the eligibility clause, it is possible that 300 students may not meet all requirements for Stage II in a subject. Some students will be selected from 300 based on merit. In this selection, proportional representation and minimum representation clauses will not be considered. If students at the last position get tie in their result, students having the same marks can appear in the stage II examination.

There will be no other basis for the determination of the Indian National Olympiad Examinations (INOs). All students who qualify for INJSO get an endorsement in the form of certificate from IAPT.

Stage 2: INJSO

Overview of INJSO

HBCSE (Homi Bhabha Center for Science Education) conducts Indian National Science Olympiad (INJSO) in almost 15 centers in the nation.

 

Eligibility Criteria

Students chosen from Stage I assessment (NSEJS) are qualified to show up for INJSO. Furthermore, those students, who have been absolved from NSEJS as listed in the Enrollment page, are likewise qualified to appear for INJSO. Other than these two, there is no other path by which a student gets qualified to show up for INJSO.

 

Syllabus

It is similar to the syllabus for NSEJS. After the exam and as per the performance, a total of around top 35 students in the merit list for Stage III: Orientation Cum Selection Camp (OCSC) in Junior Science. For the determination of the case when there is a tie between some students having same marks, they are eligible for the next stage. Further to it, there is no criterion or rules related to the selection of OCSC.

 

Stage 3: OCSC

Overview of OCSC

OCSC in Junior Science will be conducted by HBCSE for 2-3 weeks. The exact dates will be declared preceding or alongside the declaration of the merit list for the OCSC.

 

Eligibility Criteria for OCSC

Students are selected from the merit list of Stage II (INJSO) are qualified. There will be no other criteria for selection.

There will be camps after selection where theoretical and experimental tests are conducted. Student’s orientation will be there especially based on the experiments. There will be function for students where great scientists and researchers are welcomed to address them.

After the test, the merit list will be provided on the basis of the test conducted in the camp which is 60% from theoretical test and 40% from experiment test. This list will be produced as result of OCSC. Performance in the last stages (NSEJS and INJSO) is not considered here for the answer.

Thereafter, from the list, the top 6 will be selected as awardees for the merit list of the OCSC Junior Science. All the selected students will be given a prize of Rs. 5000 in form of books and cash. There will be also distinct prizes for the meritorious performance for their recognition as best performers in theory and experiment.

Lastly, special merit students are selected 12 in number in junior science at the end of OCSC and this will constitute a 6 member team for the next stage International Junior Science Olympiad (IJSO). In addition to it, other requirements must be satisfied such as age limit, holding valid Indian Passport, health certificate, consent of the parent, etc.

 

Stage 4: PDT Camp for IJSO

Overview of PDT

The major 6 students selected for the team will be trained under a team of experts and the specified program. This program is organized under HBCSE and the aim is experimental training. Best experts are assembled from reputed institutions across country to train the students for excellent results.

Mathematical Olympiad Programme

Olympiads are the types of movement which aim to find talented students from secondary and high secondary students through a medium of competition. This competition leads to an environment of friendliness among students; however, it is not a direct benefit to career. It helps students undertake the real challenges in the mathematics and science field so that it helps for a better career.
