The first step is to appear for National Standard Examination in Junior Science (NSEJS)
All Indian students who are born on or after January 1, 1996 and, in addition, are in Class X or lower as of November 30, 2010, are eligible to appear in NSEJS 2010 – 2011. If they qualify in the NSEJS, they will be eligible for subsequent stages leading to participation in International Junior Science Olympiad 2011.
