Super Quiz

Before 2013, Super Quiz was based on a science or social science topic and carried a written individual exam and a team relay with five questions for each member. In 2013, the individual Super Quiz event was removed and while the team relay event was kept, it ceased to contribute to individual or team score. Since then, the event has changed to be a set of multiple questions from the seven objective exams for three students to answer as a group. Individuals awarded Super Quiz medals prior to 2013 have been placed in the objective topic that would have received individual recognition.
