AB summary
The Azerbaijan selection round of Copernicus Physics & Astronomy 2026–2027 will take place on September 27, 2026 at 11:00. The competition is intended for students in grades 7–12.
Participants choose either Physics or Astronomy when registering. The selection round consists of 20 multiple-choice questions, lasts 75 minutes, and is scored out of 100 points.
Students compete in three grade categories: grades 7–8, 9–10, and 11–12. The exact Baku venue is expected to appear in each participant's account around one week before the exam; the Nakhchivan round is listed at NDU International School.
High-performing participants may earn the right to register for the global final, which GOC says will be held in January 2027 at Rice University in Houston, USA. Qualification does not mean that final-round registration, travel, or accommodation is funded.
The Azerbaijan selection round requires payment, but GOC's public information page does not currently state the participation-fee amount. It also does not list a separate registration deadline, so September 27 is used here as the latest known opportunity date; applicants should recheck the current terms in their account before registering.
