Advisor: Dr. Araci Advisor Email: zeynep.araci@basisindependent.com The Local Chemistry Olympiad competition is the first step in the U.S. National Chemistry Olympiad (USNCO). The results of this test will be used to choose the top 16 high school students from our local section. Each school is permitted to have a maximum of two representatives at the National Exam in April, but any number of students may participate in the Local Exam. Any BIF chemistry student may take the Local Exam, but only grades 9-12 U.S. citizens/green card holders may advance to the National Level.
