(ARYABHATTA CONTEST FOR COLLEGE LEVEL):
It is a three hours examination of subjective questions with
the syllabus of typical B.Sc. Mathematics course.
The Preliminary test will be conducted in the participating schools itself by the school. AMTI will send the question paper and the other materials to the school mail. The Principal or the authorized school person may download the question paper and the materials and conduct the preliminary examination. The top 10% of students based on the Preliminary test performance will be selected by the respective schools
> 20% of the questions that are of moderate level
> 80% of questions with higher level of difficulty,
somewhat similar to Olympiad.
The responses in the preliminary test will be written in the response sheets which will be provided by the AMTI. The institution will conduct the preliminary test in its own premises; the objective type preliminary papers will also be evaluated by the respective institutions (based on the key that will be supplied by AMTI on the next day of preliminary exam.) and the list of top 10% scorers only at each level in the Preliminary Test will be intimated to us.
Important Note: If more students qualify for any level
from an institution, please use your discretion to
shortlist and send only 10% to AMTI. In case,
additional names are communicated to AMTI, the
excess students over and above10%, will be dropped
by us.
Students selected at the Preliminary level test will get
certificates which may be treated as the Hall Ticket
for the final examination.
Only the candidates selected at the preliminary level
can appear for the final.
It is 3-hours test of subjective type questions reflecting
the syllabi of PRMO, RMO, INMO and IMO.
The final examination will be held in their respective
Institutions.
AMTI will send the question paper and the other
materials to the school mail. The Principal or the
authorized school person may download the question
paper and the materials and conduct the final
examination.
Answer books of the final test containing the solutions written by participants should be dispatched on the same day of the examination and delayed receipts will not be entertained.
Answer sheets (un-ruled only, preferably A4 size) for the Final test have to be supplied by the respective schools
The date and time of the examination cannot be altered by the centers on any account.
