ii) All-Russian School Olympiad in Biology
Every year, the Ministry of Education publishes a special decree on the next All-Russian school Olympiad, containing information and instructions on the Russian NBO. This order will be sent to all regional departments of the Ministry of Education throughout the Russian Federation and distributed to schools and other educational institutions (gymnasiums, lyceums, etc.). Students from secondary schools are eligible to take part in the NBO. And the NBO exam is conducted in 4 rounds.
Note: Only Russian NBO winners from the respective year are eligible to compete in the International Biology Olympiad (IBO).
Since 1994, Russian NBO has been conducted generally in accordance with IBO guidelines and has included both theoretical and practical tests. Additionally, the grading generally complies with IBO regulations.
