In an event, a school may enter a maximum of eight students competing as individuals and a maximum of two teams, with no more than one team competing at a given grade level. No student may participate in an event as both an individual and a team member. Teams consist of three students entered as a team.
Individuals compete against individuals and teams against teams.
Only students classified as ninth through twelfth graders are eligible to participate. Students may enter at or above, but not below, their current grade level, either as an individual or as team members. Students may enter different events at different grade levels. Teams must consist of three students entered as a team. Team members will work on the test, and mark the answer card, in succession, somewhat along the lines of the track relays.
