051208 Quiz @ UVCE

The year end Quiz at UVCE was a different affair this year. After obtaining sponsorship at the very last minute, we decided to keep the quiz open to all Bangalore students. Unfortunately, the turnout was limited due to the exam season. The quiz still got a large crowd from Christ College and two teams from NIT- Surathkal.

After 20 prelim questions, 8 teams were selected. After 5 rounds of fairplay quizzing in the final, Miraj & Eldrich from Christ college won by a heavy margin, followed by Varun Balan (NITK) and Manu (UVCE). Finishing the top three were Angadh N (UVCE) and Ajey Sudeep (NITK)

Below are the questions from prelim.

Junta, pls note, the questions are of medium level of difficulty as the club is an attempt to increase quiz participation and build enthusiasm amongst the virgins. (Answers in a week to fortnight)
