INMO Syllabus (2021-2022) |Indian National Mathematical Olympiad (INMO)

The Indian National Mathematical Olympiad (INMO) is a maths contest in India. The INMO is the 3^rd stage of the HBCSE (Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education) IMO. The Indian National Olympiad is a well-known annual mathematics contest for high school students conducted in India. Every year, the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education organizes the INMO exam. The Indian National Mathematical Olympiad (INMO) is a level at which candidates are chosen for the International Maths Olympiad, which is regarded as the IMO’s gateway.

Thousands of students across the nation attempt the INMO examination, but only 30 candidates are selected. After passing the INMO exam, the selected candidates are trained at the IMOTC (International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp). Six of the best candidates are picked to represent our country at the international level after the training. The INMO is a highly competitive exam that requires a thorough understanding of the topics covered in the Syllabus. The INMO exam’s questions are considered quite difficult. Candidates can understand how challenging this exam will be because the INMO Syllabus is vast, but the question paper only contains six questions. The examination is offline and lasts four hours, and all six questions are tough to answer.

Syllabus of INMO

The INMO covers topics such as geometry, arithmetic integers, quadratic equations and expressions, coordinate geometry, trigonometry, factorization of polynomials, system of linear equations, inequalities, elementary combinatorics, number theory and probability theory, finite series and complex numbers, and elementary graph theory. The INMO 2022 Syllabus includes pre-degree college mathematics. The INMO question paper will cover the following topics:

1	Arithmetic of Integers
2	Quadratic Equations and Expressions
3	Geometry
4	Co-ordinate Geometry
5	Permutations and Combinations
6	System of Linear Equations
7	Elementary Combinatorics
8	Inequalities
9	Number Theory
10	Probability Theory
11	Finite Series and Complex Numbers
12	Factorization of Polynomial
13	Elementary Graph Theory
14	Trigonometry

Calculus and statistics are not included in the Syllabus. The Syllabus is for students in grades XI and XII. However, it is integrated with a greater level of difficulty and complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions on INMO Syllabus

Is the INMO exam difficult?

The INMO test is the third stage of the National Olympiad Math programme, and it is open to students who have completed the first two stages. Olympiads are more comprehensive than the JEE and JEE ADVANCED exams. To start with, all IMO and other Olympiad problems are more difficult than those in JEE.

Is Coordinate geometry a part of INMO 2022?

Yes, coordinate geometry is an important topic of the curriculum. Students should look over the Syllabus to see what topics will be covered. In this way, they will be able to practise those topics.

What is the INMO exam format?

The INMO test, which is the third level of the International Math Olympiad program, is held every year by the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education. With a total of six questions and a four-hour time limit, the INMO test is conducted in a paper-and-pencil format.

Who is eligible to participate in the Indian National Mathematics Olympiad?

In order to take the INMO test, candidates first participate in the Regional Mathematical Olympiad (RMO) of their respective state or region.Each region selects approximately thirty students to write the INMO. A total of thirty students out of these 500 or more students qualify for the INMO, and are sent to a month-long training camp at HBSCE to prepare for the international Olympiad math competition. Six students are chosen to compete in the International Math Olympiad(IMO) at the end of the training camp.
