Who should join which program?

The Olympiad Program suits students working toward national and international Olympiads. The UG Mathematics Entrance program suits students preparing for CMI, ISI or foreign university entrance exams.

Do I need to prepare for Chapter Zero?

No. It uses familiar school mathematics and shows how you think, so there is nothing to cram.

How do scholarships work?

After both rounds, every student is placed in a Beginner or Advanced batch. Rankings happen inside each batch, and the top three earn scholarships of up to 100%, 50% and 25%. Scholarships apply to both programs.

How big are the batches?

Very small, so mentors can read your proofs line by line and every student is heard.

Programs

Two programs, one way of thinking.

Olympiad or university entrance, the skill is the same: breaking open a problem you’ve never seen.
