WELCOMEDOWNLOADING OF FREE ASSESSMENT TOOLS MATHEMATICS OLYMPIAD, TET, SET AND NETMATHEMATICS OLYMPIAD

The mathematics olympiad activity was undertaken by NBHM from 1986 onwards.

It is currently run in collaboration with Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education.

One main purpose of this activity is to support mathematical Talent among high school students the country.

NBHM has taken on the responsibility for selecting and training the Indian team for participation in the International Mathematical Olympiad every year.

For the purpose administering mathematics olympiad contest, the country has been divided in 16 regions.

A regional coordinator is responsible for conducting these tests in each region.

The names of the region and their respective regional coordinators are given at the end.

The syllabus for Mathematics Olympiads is pre degree college Mathematics.

The areas covered are number system, arithmetic of integers, geometry, quadratic equations and expression, trigonometry, co-ordinates geometry, system of linear equation, permutations and combinations , factorization of polynomials, inequalities, elementary combinatorics, probability theory, infinite series, complex numbers and elementary graph theory.

The syllabus does not include Calculus and Statistics.STAGES OF MATHEMATICS OLYMPIADSTAGE . I Regional Mathematical Olympiad (RMO) Regional Mathematical Olympiad is held in each region normally between September and the first Sunday of December each year. The Regional coordinator ensures that at least one centre is provided in each district of the region. All high school students up to class XII are eligible to appear for RMO.

RMO is a three hour written test containing about 6 to 7 problems.

On the basis of the performance in RMO , a certain number of students from each region are selected to appear for the second stage.

STAGE . 2 Indian National Mathematical Olympiad (INMO)

Indian National Mathematical Olympiad is held on the first Sunday of February each year at various centres in different region.

Only students selected on the basis of RMO from different regions are eligible to appear for INMO.

INMO is a four hour written test.

The question paper is set centrally and is, common throughout the country.

The top 30 to 35 performers in INMO receive a certificate of merit.

STAGE . 3

International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp (IMOTC)

The INMO certificate awardees are invited a month long training camp (junior batch) conducted in May June, each year.

INMO awardees of the previous year that have satisfactorily gone through postal tuition throughout the year are invited again for a second round of training (senior batch)

STAGE . 4

International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO)

The team selected at the end of the camp, a leader and a deputy leader, represent India at the IMO.

It is normally held in July in a different member in country of IMO each year. The leader and deputy leader are chosen by NBHM from among mathematics teachers or researchers involved in the Mathematics Olympiad activity.

IMO consist to two written test held on two days with a gap of at least one day .

CTET

The Ministry of Human Resource Development, government of India has entrusted the responsibility of conducting the Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET) to the Central Board Of Secondary Education Delhi.STATE ELIGIBILITY TEST For maintaining a uniform standard of graduate and post graduate teaching throughout the country, the Government of India through its notification stated that only those candidates would be considered eligible for a post of lecturer, who besides fulfilling the minimum academic qualification for it, also qualify in a comprehensive test, to be conducted for the purpose.

UGC simultaneously asked the government of the state and union territories about their option to conduct their own test or alternatively adopt the UGC-CSIR test. The response of UGC- CSIR test, many states opted to conduct their own test that is, State Level Eligibility Test (SLET) for lecturers.

The name of the test has again be modified as SET (State Eligibility Test). The State eligibility test was accredited by UGC for eligibility for lectureship held prior to 1st June 2002.

For SET held from 1st June 2002 onwards, the qualified candidates are eligible to apply for the post of lecturer only in the universities or colleges belonging to the state from where they have cleared their State Eligibility Test.

NATIONAL ELIGIBILITY TEST University Grants Commission (UGC) that the candidates who clear the National Eligibility Test (NET) successfully would be eligible for jobs in the Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs).

The basic objective is to determine eligibility for college and university level lectureship.

The Government of India, entrusted the task of conducting the eligibility test for lectureship to University Grants Commission. UGC conducted first ever national eligibility test (NET), common to both Eligibility for Lectureship and Junior Research Fellowship.

Since national eligibility test is conducted twice every year, once each in June and December.

CBSE will conduct NET in 84 subjects at 89 selected NET Examination centres spread across the country.
