International Junior Science Olympiad is an annual individual and team competition in Natural Sciences (i.e. Physics, Chemistry Biology, Astronomy) for students of age less than 16 years in the competition year. It is established to recognize and reward the talent in natural sciences. It is a purely educational event to encourage exceptional students in scientific endeavors.
The National Science Olympiad is a yearly competition conducted by Science Olympiad Foundation (SOF) for school students. The exam tries to develop scientific reasoning and logical ability by the mechanism of rigorous tests. It instills curiosity towards science and vigor in young students in through competitive examinations.

The student wishing to represent the country at International Junior Science Olympiad must have a passport of the country or have been the part of country's academic system for at least one year.
The normal team in Olympiad is of 4-6 students and 3 leaders. However if the team is not fulfilled, a minimum of 3 students and 1 leader should be there. A team of size less than 3 does not qualify for team awards.
There are 5 stages in Mathematical Olympiad. Sometime an extra stage exam is also conducted which is known as PRMO i.e. Pre-Regional Mathematical Olympiad. It is followed by the Regional Mathematical Olympiad which is conducted at various regions of the country to select the students for the Indian National Mathematical Olympiad. The selected students of INMO are invited for the International Mathematical Olympiad Training Camp. The next stage is the pre-departure training camp for IMO which is the final stage.
There are 5 stages in IJSO which begins with the National Standard Exam. The selected students of NSE in all subjects are qualified for INJSO. The students who get selected in INJSO are invited for the training at HBCSE for orientation cum selection camp. Stage 4 is the pre-departure training for the International Junior Science Olympiad which is the final stage of IJSO.
The IJSO is conducted in 4 subjects of natural sciences namely: Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Astronomy.
Mathematical Olympiad is conducted by Homi Bhabha Center for Science and Education on behalf of National Board for Higher Mathematics of Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India.
The age of student willing to take part in International Junior Science Olympiad should be 15 years or younger on 31st December of the competition year.
