For the first time, NPAE is offering our past tests for participants to prepare for the competition as they wish, which will help them succeed in round 1 and round 2. 

Our 2022-2023 examination and 2023-2024 fall examinations are provided, as well as separate files of full solutions to both exams with complete, written-out solutions. 

Round-2 cutoffs for the respective years are not provided, but please note that these questions are meant to challenge students to think creatively about problems. A much lower score than expected can generally be quite good; even 10/20 can be considered competitive for round 2 qualification.
