Olympiads are competitions in which students compete against
pupils of similar educational levels. Exams like these encourage students to
gain skills in disciplines like Maths, Science, Computer, Commerce, General
Knowledge, Social Science and English language. Examining for an Olympiad is a
popular approach since it offers several benefits, not only in terms of
improving academic profiles but also in terms of training young students to think
critically and analytically.
The International Commerce Olympiad (ICO) is a competition
designed for Commerce students in grades 11 and 12. It is organized by the
Science Olympiad Foundation in collaboration with ‘The Institute of Company
Secretaries of India’.
