For stage 1, an offline test was conducted at the school level where all the registration was done on the CBSE online portal. For an offline test, 10 rooms were allocated and 20 invigilators were given for 365 registered students.

As per the CBSE guidelines, Aryabhatta Ganit Challenge is regarding the ability to reason logically and present arguments in honest and convincing ways is a skill that is becoming increasingly important in today’s world. In mathematics, students learn that, with proper reasoning and assumptions, they can arrive at results that they can fully trust to be true in a wide variety of real-life contexts. While applying mathematics in daily life students develop the competencies required for mathematization.

During the process of mathematization, students recognize and identify opportunities to use mathematics and then provide mathematical structure to a problem presented in some contextualized form. It is important that students apply mathematical concepts, facts, procedures and reasoning to solve mathematically formulated problems to obtain mathematical conclusions. Students should also be able to reflect upon mathematical solutions, results or conclusions and interpret them in the context of the real-life problem.
