2. What is QUIZ?
• A quiz is a form of game or mind sport in
which the players (as individuals or in teams)

order to win a prize.
• The students that are equipped with enormous “stock
knowledge,” are tipped to pull through from a tough field
composed of the brightest and smartest competitors. But in
order to amass ample stock knowledge an aspirant must be
able to come up with a comprehensive preparation and
must be armed with techniques, strategies and right
character
