Its participants competed for the right to receive additional points for external independent testing in chemistry upon qualifying for the Faculty of Chemical-Engineering, Faculty of Engineering and Chemistry, Faculty of Biotechnology. 155 eleventh-graders from all over Ukraine took part in the correspondence round. Of these, 34 were invited to participate in the on-site tour, which was held on April 28 on the basis of the Faculty of Chemical-Engineering.

Astrelin made examination cards with ten tasks, seven of which covered general and inorganic chemistry and chemistry of elements, and three - organic chemistry. Each task was rated at 10 points.
На виконання завдань відводилось три години. Після цього члени комісії перевіряли роботи, а викладачі ХТФ знайомили учасників олімпіади з роботою факультету та університету загалом.
