What Is Level 2 In Olympiad Exam?

The Science Olympiad Foundation conducts the Level 2 Olympiad exams for students for classes 3 to 12. 

  • Top 5% of students from each class who show up for the first-level exam qualify to Level 2. If there is a tie in the scores, the scores from the various sections will be given priority in determining the order of the candidates.
  • Top 25 rank holders from each class will be selected from each Zone.
  • Class winner from each participating school when at least 10 students from a class who take the exam and score 50% qualifying marks. 

The level 2 Olympiad is held for only IMO, IEO and NSO exams for students of classes 3 to 12. Only level 1 qualifiers can compete in the SOF level 2 IMO, NSO and IEO Olympiad exams.

Level 2 Olympiads follow the same syllabus as level 1 Olympiads, but the level of difficulty rises. Level 1 questions are a little easier, more straightforward, and less challenging than level 2 questions, which will either be challenging or comprehensive and in-depth. Therefore, it becomes crucial to have a clear understanding of your concepts. Your preparation is already halfway complete if your concepts are clear.

Know the exam format for Level 2 before you start preparing as the question paper format differs slightly from Level 1. Level2 exams do not have Logical reasoning which otherwise carries a 15% weightage in Level 1.  For better results, you must prepare from the Previous years papers as it’s the best reliable source for the preparation of the Olympiad Level 2 exams for classes 3 to 12. Apart from that, also attempt Mock Test Papers and Workbooks.
