▪ Integration up to undergrad level  

1.2. Formats and Rounds 

▪ There will be a total of 5 rounds: Elimination round, top 16, quarter final, semifinal and final ▪ Elimination round will be MCQ based written test; Top 16 is a 4 way match up; and quarter final,  semifinal and final is one to one knock-out. 

▪ In Top 16, quarter final, semifinal and final, participants need to solve the problem on the board.  1.2.1. Elimination Round 

▪ The Elimination Round will be a written test consisting of 30 MCQ based integrations. ▪ For each correct answer, participants will get 4 marks and participants will lose 2 mark  for each wrong answer.  

▪ The participants will have 30 minutes to solve these integrations, and the top 16 will be advanced  to the Super 16.  

▪ If there is a tie, the ratio of the correct attempts will be considered. 

1.2.2. Super 16 

▪ There will be a 4-way matchup to select the top 8, i.e., four students will be called at a  time to solve integration on the board.  

▪ Each student will have five integrations to solve, and the duration for each integration is  3 minutes. 

▪ Marking: Out of 4 participants, if X solves and Y fails, then solvers get Y points, and the  rest lose X points each. 

▪ For example, if 1 participant solves an integral correctly out of 4, the solver will get 3  points, and the rest will lose 1 point each. 

▪ Tie-Breaker: The number of correct answers will be considered.

1.2.3. Quarter Final 

▪ Knockouts: The quarter finals will be decided based on the position in Super 16.  • QF1: 1 vs 8
