The Contest consists of Multiple Choice Questionnaire of twenty four to thirty problems, depending upon the level (grade) of the student. For each problem a choice of five answers is provided.

Solution of the problems requires creativity, logical thinking or a different perspective. Here in lies the challenge.

Contest problems for each level are divided into three parts. Each problem in first, second and third part is worth 3 points, 4 points and 5 points respectively.
There is a penalty of one point for each incorrect answer. If the question is left unanswered, it is worth 0 points. To avoid negative scores, each student begins with a credit of 24 to 30 points. Hence, the minimum score attainable is 0 points.
