When exactly are APMOPS 2026 results out?

There is no single fixed date. Round 1 results typically arrive in April--May, and Invitation Round results in May--June. Check the official APMOPS site for announcements: https://apmops.hci.edu.sg/

Can I get APMOPS results early for DSA?

APMOPS results are distributed on the organiser's timeline. There is no official early-release mechanism. If your DSA application deadline is approaching, note the competition on your application and update when results arrive.

What score do I need for Gold?

Cut-off scores vary each year based on paper difficulty and cohort performance. Historically, Gold requires scoring in approximately the top 2.5% of participants. The APMOPS results page publishes exact cut-offs after each cycle: https://apmops.hci.edu.sg/results

How does the Invitation Round work?

The top 50 Primary 6 students from Round 1 (across all participating countries) are historically invited to the Invitation Round. This is an in-person written paper at Hwa Chong Institution. Separate awards are given for Invitation Round performance.

What if I didn't get a medal - is it too late for DSA?

No. DSA applications consider a broad range of factors. APMOPS is one of several maths competitions you can participate in. NMOS, SASMO, RMO, and school-based achievements all contribute: https://eclatinstitute.sg/blog/How-to-Get-Into-IP-2026
