Six exams. One accessible format.
Every SOF exam runs multiple-choice from Grade 1 onward — a low-pressure, high-value entry point into competitive thinking, well before IOQM-level rigor becomes relevant.
SOF International Mathematics Olympiad
Grades 1–12
SOF's flagship maths olympiad, and the most widely taken school-level maths competition in India — applied number sense and logic, multiple-choice format.
SOF National Science Olympiad
Grades 1–12
Applied science reasoning across Physics, Chemistry and Biology concepts, built for curiosity and speed rather than rote memorization.
SOF International English Olympiad
Grades 1–12
Grammar, vocabulary, comprehension and verbal reasoning, sharpened through timed, olympiad-style practice.
SOF International General Knowledge Olympiad
Grades 1–10
Current affairs, general awareness and reasoning — a well-rounded, low-pressure track that builds genuine curiosity about the world.
SOF National Cyber Olympiad
Grades 1–12
SOF's computer and cyber-awareness olympiad — computer fundamentals, internet safety and logical reasoning, building the digital literacy foundation every student needs today.
SOF International Social Studies Olympiad
Grades 3–10
History, Geography, Civics and current events, tested through applied reasoning rather than rote dates and definitions.
A fixed sequence, so SOF prep isn't left to chance.

The Science Olympiad Foundation (SOF) is one of India’s most widely taken school-olympiad bodies, running IMO (Mathematics), NSO (Science), IEO (English), NCO (Computers / Cyber), IGKO (General Knowledge) and ISSO (Social Studies) for Grades 1-12, all in a multiple-choice format.
SOF exams are broad, accessible, multiple-choice tests open from Grade 1, designed as a strong entry point into competitive thinking. IOQM and NMTC are far more rigorous, written/integer-answer exams for Grades 8-12 that feed India’s national olympiad pipeline. Many students use SOF exams as an early foundation before moving into IOQM-level preparation.
Yes — most students combine 2-3 SOF tracks (commonly IMO and NSO) since the exams run on separate dates and the underlying reasoning skills reinforce each other.
Every batch is capped at a maximum of 12 students, so mentors can review each student’s specific gaps individually.
Both. Our Amanora, Hadapsar campus runs live in-person batches with smart digital boards, and the same curriculum is available live online.
