Different years may see different appendages and different schedules. The individual round is a written test in which a contestant has to answer a series of questions presented as a slide presentation, with two minutes between slides. The team round has teams of 3 answering questions, then handing the answers to a runner, who runs along guided lines to a grader. Multiple attempts at a question are allowed. The team challenges are various events which do not count toward the final score but are intended to challenge the participants by testing ability and teamwork.
