About the competition: The competition, conducted by the GBSTA, is intended to spot and nurture students’ interest in science at a very early age. It is held for two segments – 6th standard students and 9th standard students. And hence the official handbooks are designed separately for both these segments. To prepare really well for the prestigious competition, the aspiring ‘young scientists’ need to know a lot more than merely a long list of likely questions for the written test. This is so because, besides the written test, the students are also required to go through a practical test, a project and an interview. No other publication offers such a ‘complete’ fare at present.
