A: What is iGeo, how do Singapore students qualify, and why do its data-skills tests complement IP Math & Physics tuition?
TL;DR
The International Geography Olympiad sits under the International Geographical Union, and current statutes cap each delegation at four students plus two team leaders IGU iGeo Statutes.
Official test guidelines keep the scoring split at roughly forty percent Written Response, twenty percent Multimedia, and forty percent Fieldwork, so IP learners who already handle data-based questions and investigations have a head start iGeo test guidelines (Apr 2025).
The 2023 Bandung edition drew 45 teams (177 students) and Singapore placed second overall, underscoring why families treat iGeo as a serious academic milestone
Keep those proportional-reasoning and regression reflexes primed via our IP Maths tuition hub so every iGeo dataset also reinforces your school assessments.
Registration quick answer (Singapore): iGeo is not an individual sign‑up; countries send a national team (up to four students) selected via local contests. Check the international site for current statutes and contact links: https://geoolympiad.org/ > 2023 iGeo results report.
