Key Changes in the 2024 GENIUS Olympiad

Introducing the New "Coding" Category

Previously consisting of seven categories (Writing, Business, Robotics, Art, Music, Short Film), the Olympiad has now added a Coding category.

The platform allows students to collaborate, receive real-time feedback, and revise their solutions, mimicking real-world scenarios.
