Rules for Stage II
- First Stage ScienceX Olympiads Aim: The primary objective of the initial stage ScienceX Olympiads is to foster broad participation among school students.
- Progressive Reach to Stage II:
- Eligibility for Stage II ScienceX Olympiad Exam: To qualify for the Stage II ScienceX Olympiad exam, a candidate must achieve a score equal to or greater than the Qualifying Threshold Score (QTS).
- Calculation of QTS: The QTS for a given subject will be 60% of the average of the top ten scores in that subject, rounded down to the nearest integer.
- Achievement Index (AI):
- Each subject in the ScienceX Olympiads (NLSO) will have an Achievement Index (AI).
- Definition of AI: The AI in a subject is 85% of the average of the top ten scores in that subject, rounded down to the nearest integer.
- Qualification based on AI: All students with a score equal to or greater than the AI for the subject will automatically qualify for the ScienceX Olympiad Stage II examination in that subject.
