The National Board for Higher Mathematics (NBHM) is in-charge of the Mathematical Olympiad Activities in India. From this year, the NBHM has taken a decision to conduct a Pre- Regional Mathematical Olympiad (PRMO) exam to ensure uniformity as the first entry stage for the Mathematics Olympiads.

It is now essential for all students to pass the PRMO examination to be eligible to appear in Group Mathematical Olympiad. The announcement regarding Mathematical Olympiad examination is available at the above link

The participation in Pre-Regional Mathematical Olympiad (PRMO) and the Group Mathematical Olympiad (GMO) is purely voluntary.

Eligibility :
All Indian students who are born on or after August 1, 1998 and, in addition, are in Class VIII, IX, X and XI are eligible to appear for the PRMO 2017.

Enrollment for PRMO:
The PRMO will be a machine-correctable test of 30 questions. Each question has an answer which is a number with one or two digits. Sample PRMO questions and Sample OMR sheet showing marked answers can be downloaded from here.

The PRMO exam will be organized this year by IAPT (the Indian Association of Physics Teachers), the same association that also organizes the National Standards Examination, which is the first step for participation in the International Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Astronomy and Junior Science olympiads.

A link to a portal is available at the IAPT webpage where schools can register as centres; this portal will be open from May 20 to June 20, 2017. Any school with at least 5 registrations can register on the portal as a “registered centre”.

However, the list of approved exam centres will be issued by IAPT. Students who register through a given school which is a registered centre may be re-assigned to another nearby exam centre.

All Kendriya Vidyalaya, Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya and Atomic Energy Central Schools may register as registered centres regardless of the number of students. The list of registered centres will be available on the IAPT website from June 20, 2017.

Students can approach one of the approved registered centres and through the centre register for the PRMO exam between June 20 and July 25, 2017 for a fee of Rs. 200. Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan has made its schools available as centres free of cost; for KV students there is a provision to register with payment of a fee of Rs. 100.

Queries regarding PRMO may be sent by email to prmo[AT]hbcse.tifr.res.in. Queries will not be replied to individually, but via the FAQ section on this website.
