Questions related to NSO
What to do if i missed SOF NSO exam thinking that it was tomorrow, not today?
If you miss the NSO by sof then nothing can be done.
Because if you miss then you cannot be able to give the exam again. So, you should be very aware of the dates and timings of that exam.
So, if you miss then you can give in next year for that particular class. Also note that, this sof Olympiad is just for the testing skill of the student for a particular class that whether he or she is fully prepared mentally and technically.
And yes, if you miss them your registration fees will be wasted too.
But instead of this there are many good Olympiads than sof. You can give olympaids conducted by IAPT ( Indian association of physics teacher ). You can also give RMO ( regional mathematics Olympiad ).

hi,
National Service Scheme (NSS),
National Sports Organization (NSO)
National Cadet Corps (NCC)
see this is some extra curricular activities and some of the college has mandatory rules for students to join some extra curricular activities to get the mandatory points as per the instruction of the university. however this extra curricular activities has no direct connection with the course structure or syllabus of any particular engineering course. you may go for any of it even if you are from mechanical or production engineering branch. extra curricular activities are same for all streams.
