Syllabus topics and a sample question for your child's class:
Is there a Level 2?
No, there is one level.
When do results come, and what can my child win?
Normally about 40 days after the exam. 2026-27 school (offline) results postponed to 19 Nov 2026. All-India and state or zone ranks. City ranks only for classes with 500 or more children in that city.
- UIMO topper ₹2,00,000
- Class rank 1: laptop, ranks 2 and 3: tablet (and memento)
- Ranks 4 to 10: ₹1,500
- Ranks 11 to 25: ₹1,000
- Ranks 26 to 100: resource book
- State top 3: special award
- 3 class toppers per school: medal and certificate
- Every child: certificate and performance report
Where can I find UIMO sample papers and previous year papers?
Free sample questions on each exam's page. Past papers are sold. Olympiad Owl does not share the papers themselves. Our class pages above have a free sample question each, and the app has full mock papers in the previous year paper pattern.
How can my child prepare for UIMO?
A few questions a day in the real pattern, and one full timed paper a week, works better than a last-minute rush.
