International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) 2023

The International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) is a highly prestigious and competitive mathematical competition that attracts the best young mathematicians worldwide. It was established in 1959 and held for the first time in Romania. Since then, it has been held annually ever since, providing students with a platform to showcase their mathematical skills and knowledge. The competition has grown significantly over the years. It now attracts students from over 100 countries worldwide, including countries from Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, South America, and Oceania. This year, the IMO 2023 is set to take place in July, providing a platform for talented young mathematicians to showcase their skills and compete against their peers.

IMO Exam pattern 2023

International Maths Olympiad invites students from classes I to XII to participate and excel at the international level, which will be conducted in two levels. The important points of the competition's both levels are given below.

Level 1: The first level of examination is conducted during school hours in the respective schools of the participants.

The Level 1 competition is an objective-type test of 60 minutes, consisting of 35 object-type (MCQs) for classes I to IV and 50 objective-type questions for classes V to XII.
The question paper consists of four sections:
- Section-1: Logical Reasoning
- Section-2: Mathematical Reasoning
- Section-3: Everyday Mathematics
- Section-4: Achievers Section

IMO is held on three different dates. Schools can choose any one date at their convenience. Science Olympiad Foundation (SOF) prepares separate question papers for each examination date.
The test is in the English medium of the International Maths Olympiad.
SOF follows CBSE, ICSE/ISC and State Board syllabus while designing IMO exam papers.
All students from classes I to XII are eligible for the IMO exam.
