Everyone’s welcome, no experience needed. Do well here, and your squad earns a ticket to the Global Round, where you go international and compete with scholars from all over the world. Don’t make it? No stress, the experience is in itself.

trophies
This one’s for you or your squad. Top overall across events,  proof you or your squad ran the game.

Respect the real ones behind the scenes. This goes to the two coaches who leveled up their squad, kept the energy high, and made sure everyone got their W’s. Mad respect, always.
jac khor award
Named after a WSC OG, Jacqueline Khor, this honors the highest score of the Scholars Challenge. Snag this and your name’s in the history books.
champion scholars
These are the real MVPs, scholars who crushed every event and flexed their brainpower like no other. Respect the grind, respect the skill.
asimov award
Didn’t snag a medal or trophy in other events but still showed up strong? You brought the energy, creativity, and teamwork, still a major flex.
barelyold scholars
For the fresh faces in the Senior Division, maybe a fresh high school freshman or an 8th grader, who still showed up, brought energy, and started stacking W’s.
