We want to thank all the countries, which sent the proposal tasks for the 13thIBO on time. The local Scientific Task Committee especially liked the tasks sent by India, Belarus and Vietnam. It was a pity that we got some tasks too late and some countries didn’t send tasks at all. Local specialists made changes in some questions, too.
During the coordinating meeting in Prague, we were asked to make Theoretical Part A shorter and to prepare as questions as possible for Theoretical Part B. This is because the multiple choice questions apparently better test the knowledge of students. We tried to do this. The total number of questions in Part A and maximum possible score was 75. We prepared 42 questions for part B. The total score for Part B was 119. During the Jury sessions, we had long discussions on Part B, especially about the correct answers. For some questions, additional possible correct answers were allowed.
Some questions where skipped. They were mostly the same about which the local jury had long discussions already before the 13thIBO.
Theoretical test
YOU HAVE FOUR HOURS TO ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS
Questions in part Ahave only one correct answer which should be shown by marking (blacking out) the appropriate field in the answer list.
You’ ll get one point for every correct answer in part A
For questions in part B you’ll have to fill in the correct answers in the appropriate fields,
build graphs, etc.
The number of points you’ll get for the part B questions varies, depending on the
complexity of the question
GOOD LUCK !
Find the one correct answer in each task and mark it in the answer sheet in this way: 
The jury will check only the answer sheet!
