Things to Remember

– Competition is inter-collegiate: to the extent possible, each team will consist of students from every PA program in North Carolina. Teams are determined ahead of time, based on intended attendees.

– Responses to all questions require a question prefix (e.g. “What is… or Who is…”). Only one response per question per team.

– Questions must be answered within 10 seconds, and points are deducted for incorrect answers. Teams “buzz-in” to answer questions as a group. The team that accumulates the most points wins.

– Register by Wednesday, June 7. There are spaces available for only 6 students from each PA program in North Carolina, so be sure to sign up early. A waiting list will be maintained for any available spots at the close of registration.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Caroline Purdy at caroline.purdy@ncapa.org
