The medal table is based on information provided by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and is consistent with IOC convention in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold medals the athletes from a nation won, where a nation is an entity represented by a National Olympic Committee (NOC). The number of silver medals is taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals.
In gymnastics, two silver medals (and no bronze) were awarded to Jean Gounot and François Gangloff for a second-place tie in the men's sidehorse vault event, while two bronze medals were awarded to Ladislav Vácha and August Güttinger for a third-place tie in the men's rope climbing event. In rowing, no bronze medal was awarded in the men's coxless pair event, as there were only two teams that participated in the final after Gordon Killick and Thomas Southgate of Great Britain got injured and did not start.

The 1924 Summer Olympics also included art competitions across five disciplines: architecture, literature, music, painting, and sculpture, for works inspired by sport-related themes, were medal-eligible events at the time. Art competitions were held from the 1912 Summer Olympics until the 1948 Summer Olympics, but were discontinued over the amateurism controversy. Medals in art competitions are no longer recognized by the IOC as part of the total medal count.
In architecture, no gold medal was awarded while the silver was awarded to the pair of Alfréd Hajós and Dezső Lauber of Hungary. Hajós became one of only two Olympians ever to have won medals in both sport (two golds in swimming at the 1896 Summer Olympics) and art Olympic competitions. The bronze was awarded to Julien Médecin of Monaco, who became the first Monégasque competitor to win an Olympic medal. Jack Butler Yeats of Ireland won the silver, becoming the first Irish competitor to win an Olympic medal, and Johan van Hell of the Netherlands won the bronze.
In sculpture, Konstantinos Dimitriadis of Greece won the gold medal, Frantz Heldenstein of Luxembourg won the silver, and two bronze medals were awarded, one to Jean René Gauguin of Denmark and the other to Claude-Léon Mascaux of France.
