The competition consists of three distinct Online Qualification Rounds held across different time-zone batches to accommodate global participants. Each exam features 20 multiple-choice questions (+3 points each) and 10 short numerical-answer questions (+4 points each), totaling 30 problems within a strict 120-minute time limit. Testing is strictly sequential, meaning participants cannot navigate back to change previous answers once submitted.

Participants are ranked globally within five unique animal-themed age divisions: Gecko, Salamander, Chameleon, Iguana, and Dragon. High achievers are recognized internationally with prestigious tiered awards, including Gold Medals for the top 5%, Silver Medals for the next 10%, and Bronze Medals for the next 15% of competitors, alongside Honorable Mentions.
