| NSO 2015 | ||
| National Science Olympiad (NSO) is organised every year to motivate students to strive for better and deeper understanding of scientific facts and data and to enhance their reasoning, analytical and problem solving skills. | ||
| NSO Registration/Application Form | ||
| Students have to register for the exam only from their school itself. NSO does not accept individual participation of the candidate from any other mode. All the information is sent to the schools all over the country/Asian countries along with prospectus, registration forms, posters and other details before the first round and then as the date and venue of the second level is decided, the information is sent to the relevant schools again. The students will come to know about the necessary details from their school teachers or through the Foundation's official website www.sofworld.org. |
