Proficiency Assessment, OSAT & N40
Receive That Extra Mileage with ODM, Bhubaneswar’s Best Day Boarding School
As per CBSE guidelines, candidates for Standard I to VII can take direct admission on the basis of seat availability, whereas students for Standard VIII to XII have to go through a proficiency assessment test conducted by ODM faculties. Appeared candidates have to secure at least 50% to proceed further to the personal interview round. This will be the final assessment test for candidates to secure their seats at ODM Public School. Apart from Proficiency Assessment test, ODM Public School also conducts two other test, OSAT & N40, where selected students can avail extra benefits.
OSAT- ODM Scholarship Admission Test 2025, is an entrance test conducted by ODM for students applying to take admission in Class XI. For the students of Class XI, qualification in this test serves as a mandatory criterion. We would also like to mention that OSAT doesn’t guarantee a scholarship for every student appearing in the exam. The scholarships will be served based on the results acquired by students on OSAT and competitive exams. ODM OSAT Council Members may also consider special cases for scholarship acquirement. NUCLEUS 40 is a special batch of ODM where we select only 40 students each for JEE and NEET integrated preparation. The batch is curated to ensure that CBSE and entrance preparation is done for the students through an integrated curriculum

Ayush Nayak (Student, Class III)
"We do fun activities and we’re all really close. Padhi Sir is the ever-hilarious Language teacher but he is also very serious when it comes to our work. Somnath Sir, my math teacher, is really good at what he does. Whenever I think something is hard, he makes it so easy. "

The school offers many activities in the afternoon in order to always provide you the opportunity to excel in other activities. "
