RMO 2019 - Admit card, Syllabus, Past Year Papers, Eligibility

RMO 2019 is an Olympiad conducted to test the mathematical and analytical skills of the students. RMO full form is Regional Mathematical Olympiad and it is organized by the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education (HBCSE). RMO will be held in all the regions on 20 October. RMO is a three-hour exam which contains six problems. Based on the RMO exam, up to 30 students from Classes 8,9,10,11 and up to 6 students from Class 12 from each region are selected for Stage 3 (INMO). Get complete details on RMO 2019 on this page.

RMO Exam Pattern and Syllabus 2019 

The syllabus of Mathematical Olympiad will be based on Class 11 and 12, although the problems under each topic involve a high level of difficulty. The level of the exam will get tougher as per the stages. The difficulty level increases from RMO to INMO to IMO. The Olympiad will include the following topics:

Students can also check RMO Question Paper to practice the subjects mentioned above. By practising through such paper, students will get an idea of the trend that is being followed in such olympiads. It also helps the student in analysing their own performance and identification of weak areas.
