Subject: bim trichy bizquiz review

anish_raju

chennai folks didnt quite turn up in full strength for a bizquiz BIM
trichy has been doing for the last few years. probably the landmark
quiz in bangalore on the same day(nov 1) was a dampener. anyways,
about 18-20 teams turned up and as is usual with many a b school quiz,
the event was majorly delayed. elims started and ended on time, we
were left twiddling our thumbs for 2 hrs post that. we qualified with
ease, and having gone thru a decent elims (consisting of 26 qs with
answers based on the 26 letters of the queens language, thus giving
the not so ardent bizquizzers a decent shot at working out answers),
were hopeful of more good fare in the finals.
good that something different was tried out and it worked well in my opinion.

however, the finals was a bit of a damp squib. what was good was there
were more questions than in a typical such quiz, what was unfortunate
was that the questions were a bit vague, especially one visuals round,
almost felt like a science fiction quiz (visuals on a fish hotel in
schiphol, tower farming, hotels on oil rigs). in between there were a
few easy ones and we were lucky to get some of them.
buzzer questions were decently worded (american express alexander
trivia, deccan 360 etc), connects were the usual fare, but some dry
questions (esp the first round) were very arcane IMHO. have noticed a
tendency for the first round to have strange things asked even at a
recent national level quiz.

we won with a whisker's edge, with sanmar at our heels with a set of
good guesses. onmobile, cts, dell and zoho made up our company on
stage. and on passing, must say that on stage it felt like we were in
a bombay chawl, so hope the next bim quiz ensures some more room for
the finalists!

A.anise flavored alcohol - absinthe
B.question on product made by Benjamin franklin - related to a more
efficient burning stove/oven

and so on, until Z.
have jotted some elims qs i remembered at www.fundamental.in
