The syllabus for International Maths Olympiad is divided into four sections for each class starting from class 1st to class 10th . This has been done in order to ensure that it is represented in an easy-to-find way. The sub-topics are given strictly according to the class in which the student is and the Mock Tests and Sample Papers are also provided.
Section 1: Logical Reasoning Section contains questions related to Patterns, classifications, analogies etc upto class 5th. Class 6th onwards, it contains questions related to Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning. For Logical Reasoning Book Click Here
Section 2: Mathematical Reasoning Section in which questions are based on the topics relevant to the current and previous class Maths Syllabus.
Section 3: Everyday Mathematics Section in which the syllabus is same as that of Section 2. However, the questions are more of the type of Everyday Mathematics and not related to reasoning.
Section 4: Achievers Section which also covers questions based on the topics of Section 2 but the level of questions is higher. It is advisable to start this section only after the other three sections are complete.
In IMO Level-1 exam, 60% of the questions will be from the current class syllabus and 40% from the previous class syllabus. However, the questions in Achiever's Section will be from the current class syllabus only.
