I never got to participate in the Texas Instruments sponsored Jack Kilby Science Quiz, because I was too old to meet the age criteria. It’s a fun quiz though, I’ve heard, and I had an archive of the quiz compiled by Prateek Vijayavargia lying with me for quite some time; just hadn’t had time to go through it. I did get some time recently, and am putting up the archive now. Most of the stuff was done by Prateek, but I did add a bit, especially one question which I think was wrong. Standard of the quiz is quite okay, given that it is targetted at students of and below 10th standard. Obviously, tech does seem to be an important topic while preparing for this quiz/ Enjoy the archives.

Columban Open Quiz 2008
Just got news from Vivek that DPS Vasant Kunj Quiz Club’s team were the runners up at this year’s edition of the Columban Open Quiz, finals held today at St Columba’s. I really can’t express how happy I am at the meteoric rise of the DPS VK QC for the past two years, culminating in this amazing feat. I’d have loved to go and watch it happening, except that I’m down with a bit of viral fever and cold right now. I’m sure it was great fun. Apparently, I was missed there too by some folk, my antics are still remembered it seems. I think a big round of kudos is in order for the whole current DPS VK Quiz Club team, especially the for the guys who came runners up today. 🙂
