Team selection
Each participating country is expected to choose its two best teams of four contestants each to compete in the IMMC. Globally, different methods have been used to select teams from their respective countries. Hong Kong holds the contest early and allows any interested team to participate./ref> A national judging panel selects the two best papers to move on to the international round of the competition.
