Competition Structure
A practice-led, multi-stage competition designed to help students build speed, accuracy, and conceptual mastery in Mathematics.
Building the Foundation
Start with the Entry Test, progress through 8 levels of the Qualifying Stage, and reach the ultimate Final Stage β C3 Level.
- β Each question has 3 sub-questions β you earn 1 point only if all 3 are correct.
- β Your score determines your starting level in the Qualifying Stage.
| Score Range | Starting Level |
|---|---|
| 0 β 8 | A1 Level |
| 9 β 15 | B1 Level |
| 16 β 35 | C1 Level |
| 36 β 40 | C2 Level |

Three categories (A, B, C) with multiple levels. Progress through each by achieving 90% accuracy across 7 consecutive test attempts.
- β Score at least 90% accuracy in each of 7 consecutive attempts to advance to the next level.
- β Complete all A levels to be promoted to B-Category.
- β Score at least 90% accuracy in 7 consecutive attempts of C3 Level to complete the competition.
- β Once you reach C3 Level, you are in the final stage β keep going!
Grade 6β8 students complete the competition after finishing C3 Level. Grade 9β10 students are promoted to the MahaviraDivision for additional challenges.
A building on the Foundation
