I want to participate in olympiads(esp maths and science). So, I would like to request anyone who has participated in olympiads to share their experiences. How did you manage to get there? Do we need to prepare separately? How was the toughness of the questions? Your help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I took part in the Science Olympiads about nine years ago, and things might have changed since then. But honestly, it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. Most of the questions in Tier 1 were pretty much what you’d learn in the eleventh grade. Tier 2, on the other hand, got quite challenging. I barely prepared for it, and I’d say you might do better if you put more focus on Biology.
Maths and physics olympiad were pretty tough, these were quite conceptual. So they require your strong base and fundamentals. I didn’t prepare as it was a while back but now more students may be interested so might have more competition.
