Latest update!

I'm sorry I am back here after quite a long time. Let's begin........International Informatics Olympiad was conducted on 27th August 2009. I found the paper easy, and expect to get a nice rank. Results will be published Here by the 25th of this month. Next was the World Oral Calculator Competition organised by Magical Methods Foundation. The results are already out, and unfortunately I could not qualify. Next was the National Cyber Olympiad. It was conducted on two dates September10 and October5. Our school conducted on the olympiad on the latter date. The question paper on September10 was really very very easy, while that on October5 was too tough. Unfortunately again, I couldn't qualify. I missed out by six ranks. I was quite a shock for me, 1st last year and 506th this year. Next was Unified Cyber Olympiad, results of which are also declared. Next on the agenda was the DPS Science and Maths Talent Exam for DPS students only. It was a nice paper, though a bit tough......... Next was 12th NSO that was conducted yesterday, i.e. November19. It was a tough paper. The answer key is already put up here . BTW, I've also won the National Child Award for Exceptional Achievements from the Govt. of India and also the NSO E-Quiz for class X, being a class IX student. These are the only good things that came my way this year, apart from NTSE scholarship. I am eagerly awaiting IIO results. God knows what's going to happen! BTW, best of luck to all those who took the olympiad, and for all those who didn't, BOL for your future!

4. The fact that Steven Hawking is physically challenged, and yet he has proved himself as an outstanding astronomer

Chemistry:

1. Tell about structure of atoms-protons, neutrons and electrons with their charges
2. A question on nuclear stability was asked: if neutrons do not have any charge on them, and how are they bound to the nucleus

Biology:

1. Classify dinosaur (they expected complete classification including kingdom, species, phylum etc.)
2. Classify yourself
3. Four characteristics of mammals

Geography:

1. Define igneus, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks
2. Of what rocks are Himalayas made up of? How have they been made?
3. What rocks have relation to biology?
