A lot of people coming to my over the past few days seem to be interested in the Jack Kilby Science Quiz 2006 Archive (and related Sample Questions). Many of them have been clamoring for the 2007 archives. I couldn’t get a full archive, but thanks to Prateek Vijayavargia we could patch together a sampling of questions from the Delhi round. Click here to download the Jack Kilby Science and Technology Quiz 2007 Delhi round archive (PDF, ~950 KB). Hopefully, this should give participants an idea about the quiz. Best of luck for all of you who made it to the national finals this year.

Another quizzing-related news today: DPS VK Quiz Club’s team of Saurabh Chaudhary, Tushar Krishnan, and Aishwarya Gulati won the Japan Quiz! Conducted by Quizcraft, the Japan Quiz is organized by the Japanese Embassy in Delhi. The winners get to go to Japan for a trip next year. This is one-up from our performance last year, when our team were the runners-up. It’s simply great to see that the foundations of the club which were laid down two years back has finally matured. DPS VK sure is on a winning spree!

The Limca Book of Records Quiz is generally conducted by Quizcraft, but this year the account has been picked up by Derek O’Brien & Associates. Expect a suckier quiz, coming soon at a school near you this December. Meanwhile, you can go through the Limca Book of Records Quiz 2005 Archive (ZIP, ~680 KB). Had been lying around with me for a long time; thanks to Prateek Vijayavargia for compiling this. 🙂 I didn’t include the questions for the visual round because I thought they’d be self-evident. The quiz was good, except for the bits where they harp on Coca Cola (Coke owns the Limca brand) – but you can’t blame Adittya Mubayi because that was probably part of the contract.
