How the 1/8th Contest Stages Work to qualify for the Quarter finals and their pairings
Each day, there are 9 contests, grouped in sets of 3:
- Contests 1, 2, and 3 happen at the same time, using the same questions, but in different venues.
- The winners of these 3 contests qualify and are grouped into Quarterfinal 1.
- Contests 4, 5, and 6 follow the same structure (same time, same questions, different venues).
- Their winners qualify for Quarterfinal 2.
- Contests 7, 8, and 9 are also done in the same manner.
- Their winners move on to Quarterfinal 3.
This format continues each day, and each quarterfinal group is formed from the winners of their respective sets.
Progression to Semifinals and Finals
- After the quarterfinal contests (Quarterfinals 1, 2, and 3), the winners from each will move on to form a semifinal group.
- This format also happens over the next three days, forming three semifinal contests in total.
- Then, the winners of the three semifinal contests will qualify for the grand finale.
So, in the end, three schools will compete in the finals to determine the overall champion.
