Yes, the RMO question paper is the same for all the classes. It is a standardised olympiad exam.
Until 2022, two separate exams - PRMO and RMO were conducted to select students for the IMO training camp. Now, these two examinations are combined into one exam called IOQM or Indian Olympiad Qualifier in Mathematics.
Until 2020, RMO was a subjective olympiad. In the 2021-2022 cycle the IOQM was introduced which included 10 questions of 2 marks each, 12 questions of 5 marks each, and 2 questions of 10 marks each.
IOQM is a 3-hour examination.
