The Maths, Cognition, and Logic Challenge is the first exam in our quarterly series, which runs as a prelude to our “How to Think” series. The Challenge focuses on basic number sense, logical reasoning, critical thinking, problem-solving, mathematics, and cognitive ability and aims to encourage excitement about problems within and beyond the school curriculum. 

The Challenge takes place in three parts. Part I was recommended for students in grades 5, 6, 7; Part II for students in grades 8, 9, 10 and Part III for students in grades 11 and 12. The Question Paper for the Summer Quarter 2025 can be downloaded here.
