General Information

1. Team make-up may change for each tournament.

2. No limit on team size.

3. Students compete at their home site.

4. Teachers/Coaches are not to assist students in determining the answer to a question.

5. Students work as a team to answer the multiple choice, true/false and matching questions. The team determines the answer and one person will key in "A", "B", "C", or "D" or click on the choice.

6. Unless otherwise noted in the instructions no outside references, assistance or calculators will be allowed.

7. Each tournament is timed. They are usually 50 minutes in length.

8. At the conclusion of the tournament the program will post the score in the online grade book. These will be released after the close date. 

9. There are practice tests. Practice tests are labeled PRACTICE TEST. The test you will be taking for a score does NOT say practice test. It will say 24/25 "Grade Level" "Subject Area" Tournament.

10.  Once the tournament results and ranking are posted (the week-end after the due date), teams will have 5 days to check the posting.  After 5 days the results become official (final).

11. If a team missed the turn-in deadline they may still take a tournament test for a score. The late score will not affect the results of the posted tournament.  The late score will not change the posted results of the tournament.  The late score will be added to the team totals for sweepstakes consideration.

SCORING

12.  'Regular' questions are worth 1-5 points each.

13. Writers have the option to weight questions they consider to include more difficult material or a more challenging question style. You will be able to see the points given to each question when you review the questions at the end of the tournament.

TIES

14.  All ties for champion or runner-up placing will be broken. 

a. Each writer has pre-selected 5 - 10 questions in each tournament as tie breakers.  The team with the most pre-selected questions correct will be the 'winning' team. No additional points will be added (to keep sweepstakes on a level field).

b. If the score is still tied after the tie breaker questions are reviewed the team completing the test in the least amount of time will be the winning team.

SWEEPSTAKES

15. The team with the highest cumulative score for each level will be awarded the Sweepstakes Champion trophy. Percent correct score will be used.
