the International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp (IMOTC). This is
conducted by HBCSE during April- May.
5. International
Mathematics Olympiad (IMO):-
This is the final
exam organized by the Science Olympiad Foundation (SOF). On the basis of
performance in these tests six students are selected to represent India at the
IMO. The selected team undergoes a rigorous training program for about 8-10
days at HBCSE prior to its departure for the IMO.
Students from class1 to 12 can
