Summary of the Video on Srinivasa Ramanujan Talent Search Test & C.V. Raman Talent Search Test in Science

This video provides detailed information about two important annual competitive examinations organized by the Bihar Council on Science and Technology Department under the Bihar Government:

Srinivasa Ramanujan Talent Search Test in Mathematical Sciences
C.V. Raman Talent Search Test in Science

Main Ideas and Concepts

1. Purpose and Organization

These competitive exams are held annually to encourage students from Bihar (classes 6 to 12) in Mathematics and Science.
The exams aim to reduce students’ fear of these subjects, promote a spirit of competition, and foster interest in research and higher studies such as IIT entrance exams.
The Bihar Council on Science and Technology organizes the exams, and successful students are felicitated at both district and state levels.
Felicitations for Mathematics toppers happen on 22nd December (National Mathematics Day, Ramanujan Day).
Felicitations for Science toppers occur on 28th February (C.V. Raman’s birthday).

2. Exam Details

The exams are conducted online (computer-based test) at engineering and polytechnic colleges across Bihar.
Students can bring their own laptops, mobiles, or tablets with internet/WiFi connectivity; if they do not have devices, the centers provide them.
Each exam consists of 25 multiple-choice questions (MCQs):
- Ramanujan Test: 25 Mathematics questions.
- C.V. Raman Test: 25 Science questions.
Duration: 1 hour.
Eligibility: Students studying in government or private schools in Bihar from class 6 to 12.
Online registration and syllabus details are available on the Bihar Council on Science and Technology website.

3. Selection and Rewards

Selection is done at two levels: State level and District level.
At the state level, 3 toppers per class (6th to 12th) are selected, totaling 21 students for Mathematics and 21 for Science.
Similarly, 21 students per district are selected for each subject.
Annually, 42 state-level students (21 Mathematics + 21 Science) receive laptops, cash prizes, certificates, and medals.
Total selected students across the state exceed 2500.
Felicitation ceremonies are held in Patna and district centers.

4. Training Camps and Past Initiatives

In previous years (2022-23), selected students were invited to a one-month training camp at IIT Patna, featuring eminent IIT professors and scholars.
The Education Department funded these camps significantly (Rs. 48 lakh in one year and Rs. 1.69 crore in the next).
These camps aimed to deepen students’ knowledge and motivation in Mathematics and Science.
Although no training camp was organized last year, there is hope and expectation that such camps will resume.

5. Indian Mathematics and Science Association (IMSA)

A new organization registered in 2023, headquartered in Bihar, with prominent scholars including Dr. Vijay Kumar, Prof. SC Verma, and others.
IMSA aims to promote school and higher education in Mathematics and Science at the national level.
The association seeks government support to expand opportunities, especially for underprivileged students.
IMSA plans to organize Talent Search Tests not only for school students but also for B.Sc. and M.Sc. students.

6. Upcoming Exam Notification and Preparation

The advertisement for the 2025 exams is expected after 15th November.
Students will have a short window (15-20 days) to apply online.
Exams will be conducted in December, with results and felicitation following soon after.
Students are encouraged to start preparing early and apply promptly once the notification is released.
