Preparation for Bangladesh Mathematical Olympiad [Preparation Guideline]

National Math Olympiad is the second phase of Bangladesh Mathematical Olympiad (BdMO). Each year, the regional winners from all over the country compete at the National Olympiad. National Olympiad is comparatively harder than the divisional rounds. Usually students of secondary and higher secondary category attend an exam of four and a half hours. For Junior and Primary group, it is 3 and 2 hours respectively.

Preparing for the National Olympiad takes a lot of efforts. You must have a solid grasp of some basic problem solving skills. In this note, I'll be talking about category-wise preparation.
