How the Competition Works

Axiom Challenge prioritizes flexibility, and so participants can submit their answers within a week's window (TBD).

Pre-registration is also highly encouraged! Participants may receive an email upon pre-registering. Pre-registering is not open yet.

Submission for the Winter 2026 Season will be held on a program called Tally. Submission is not open yet, please come back for more details.

ALL participants must fill out the submission form (even for non-online submissions)
When uploading your answers to each subject, please attach it in form of a PDF in the registration form
When submitting, the student participating does not have to do all sections of the competition (although it is highly encouraged to do all!); the student may choose which section(s) they want to do based on their interest
1st-2nd grade only does math problems, 3rd-5th grade does math and science problems, and 6th-8th grade does science, technology, engineering, and math problems and an optional essay topic (will receive extra credit for doing the technology problems and writing the essay - essay must be one of the three prompts given - 300 words or under)
To submit engineering problems, please take a picture of the drawing the student drew or describe the structure that the student would create (and put it on a PDF)
Students may choose to work on problems above their current grade level or multiple grades if they would like
