The scientific committee is responsible for drawing up the subjects for the theoretical and experimental tests, in line with precise specifications.
The subjects are then discussed at two meetings attended by all the delegations. During these meetings, the subjects are adjusted to suit the majority of delegations; each decision to amend the subjects is subject to a vote.
The scientific committee is also in charge of proposing a solution and a marking scheme for each of the two tests. A French team of markers is responsible for evaluating the candidates' papers before moderation with the team leaders.
