    IEnvO 2025 Inquires & Answers

    Last updated: November 7, 2024

    What is the scope of the Grand Test?

    The Grand Test is primarily based on the IEnvO Official Syllabus and Guide. It is important to note that the Official Syllabus and Guide will be updated in 2025, so participants should keep an eye on the latest version for the most accurate and current examination content.

    Are all the questions in the Material-based Objective Exam multiple-choice?

    No, the Material-based Objective Exam consists of a mix of question types. Each material includes 15 multiple-choice questions and 5 true/false (judgment) questions.

    Is the International Environmental Olympiad conducted online or offline?

    The International Environmental Olympiad is conducted online. The exam will be conducted through a dedicated online examination system, and the presentation will be submitted in the form of a video. All you need is a computer device with access to the internet.

    I can't find an advisor / My school is unwilling to organize the registration. Can I register without an advisor?

    NO, advisor is required. An advisor doesn't need to be heavily involved in the registration process; they just need to verify your academic level and identity if we contact them. You can reach out to a former teacher or an external mentor who is familiar with your academic background.

    I'm currently on a gap year. Am I eligible to participate?

    No, only students who are currently enrolled in high school (and have not yet graduated) are eligible to participate.

    I'm studying in the U.S., but I'll be in Singapore during the competition. Should I register with the U.S. or Singapore?

    The exam time is automatically assigned based on the country/region you select during registration. If you'll be in Singapore during the exam, it's advisable to register with Singapore to avoid taking the exam in the middle of the night. However, advancement is also determined by country/region. If you register as a Singaporean student, you'll be competing with other Singaporean students for advancement opportunities.
