SOF IMO — International Mathematics Olympiad

Science Olympiad Foundation · Classes 1–12 · 2026–27 window: L1: 23 Oct / 26 Nov / 10 Dec 2026 · L2 Feb 2027

India's largest-participation maths olympiad — the broadest national benchmark, run through registered schools.

Schools choose one of three Level-1 dates; Level 2 (Classes 3–12, top 5%) lands tentatively on the 2nd/3rd Sunday of February 2027. School-route registration only — if your school isn't registered, SOF does not accept individual entries.

Who is it for?

Students of Classes 1–12. Subject focus: Maths. As with any olympiad, the best candidates are children who voluntarily enjoy the subject — an olympiad should stretch curiosity, not manufacture pressure.

Registration & source of record
